Budget-aware Index Tuning with Reinforcement Learning

Summary: Budget-aware index tuning under a capped what-if budget; models the search as an MDP to balance exploration and exploitation. Applies Monte Carlo Tree Search for RL-guided index configuration, outperforming budget-aware baselines on benchmarks and real workloads. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
