The Case for Predictive Database Systems: Opportunities and Challenges
Summary: Proposes integrating model management into DBMS cores so declarative predictive queries run with optimizer-managed model training/selection for both self-management and user-facing analytics. Outlines challenges in profiling, physical design and optimizer integration and presents Longview, a prototype predicting query performance. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
