Columnstore and B+ tree – Are Hybrid Physical Designs Important?
Summary: Hybrid physical designs mixing B+tree and columnstore are evaluated for mixed workloads; micro-benchmarks reveal orders of magnitude performance variation by workload. Extends SQL Server's tuning advisor to recommend hybrid designs; experiments on standard benchmarks and real workloads show substantial cost reductions versus single-design strategies.
