Low Rank Approximation for Learned Query Optimization.

Regressions and large overhead time are the major concerns when machine learning based query optimizers are put into production system. We proposed the first “workload-level” query optimizer that optimize the whole workload all at once without any regressions. Leveraging the similarities between queries, we cast the problem as low-rank matrix completion - using this pure linear method gives us 100x overhead time gain!
