Columnar Formats for Schemaless LSM-based Document Stores
Summary: Extends Dremel for schemaless documents and introduces an LSM-aware columnar layout, piggybacking on flush/merge events. In AsterixDB, runtime query compilation delivers orders-of-magnitude faster analytics with minimal ingestion overhead. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
