Velox: Meta's Unified Execution Engine

Summary: Velox is Meta’s open-source, dialect-agnostic C++ library of reusable, vectorized and adaptive execution components, optimized for complex types. Integrated across query, streaming, ML, and ingestion systems, it unifies optimization and reduces engine silos. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
