Tupleware: "Big" Data, Big Analytics, Small Clusters

Summary: Targets analytics on small clusters (few–dozen nodes) with compute‑intensive, sub‑petabyte workloads rather than cloud‑scale. Compiles workflows of UDFs using database+compiler techniques into highly optimized distributed programs, reporting up to 1000× speedups. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
