Don’t optimize my queries, optimize my data!

Your queries won't run fast if your data is not organized right. Apache Calcite optimizes queries, but can we evolve it so that it can optimize data? We had to solve several challenges. Users are too busy to tell us the structure of their database, and the query load changes daily, so Calcite has to learn and adapt. We talk about new algorithms we developed for gathering statistics on massive database, and how we infer and evolve the data model based on the queries, suggesting materialized views that will make your queries run faster without you changing them.
