Abstract

The Vertica SQL Query Optimizer was written from the ground up for the Vertica Analytic Database. Its design, and the tradeoffs we encountered during implementation, support the case that the full power of novel database systems can be realized only with a custom Query Optimizer, carefully crafted exclusively for the system in which it operates.
