Abstract: A system and method that dynamically adapts to workload changes and adopts the best possible physical layout on the fly—while allowing simultaneous updates to the table. A process continuously and incrementally computes the optimal physical layout based on workload changes and determines whether or not switching to this new layout would be beneficial. The system can perform online reorganization of hybrid main memory databases with a negligible overheard, leading up to three orders of magnitude performance gains when determining the optimal layout of dynamic workloads and providing guarantees on the worst case performance of our system.
