Test-Time Optimization of Physical Query Plans with LLMs
arXiv:2602. 10387v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Traditional query optimization relies on cost-based optimizers that estimate execution cost (e.
arXiv:2607. 20630v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional query processing engines require continuous development and extensions to support new techniques and user requirements, and in some cases, entirely new systems must be built from scratch.

arXiv:2607. 18241v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) excel at analyzing individual documents but break down on exhaustive, cross-entity analytical questions over enterprise-scale datasets due to context overflow, loss of per-entity attribution, and linear latency from sequential tool calls.
arXiv:2607. 20489v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-to-SQL has advanced rapidly with large language models, but complex database queries still require reasoning beyond one-shot generation, including multi-step decomposition, execution-based diagnosis, and targeted correction.
arXiv:2606. 19319v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Production data integration is bottlenecked by repeated, lossy handoffs between data owners, engineers, and analysts who must collaboratively discover, structure, and query enterprise data.
arXiv:2607. 23815v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models are increasingly used as semantic operators for filtering, extracting, ranking, joining, and transforming unstructured data.
arXiv:2606. 12387v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have democratized database access through Text-to-SQL, but moving from prototypes to production remains difficult.
arXiv:2606. 29823v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The database community has repeatedly advanced the state of the art by recognizing that new workloads demand new system architectures.
arXiv:2607. 07696v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Analytical workloads operating on data stored in external database systems face a fundamental bottleneck: data access is guarded entirely by the database driver, like JDBC or ODBC, forcing all reads through query execution and other driver layers that are not designed for bulk columnar analytics.
arXiv:2608. 09532v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Enterprises increasingly seek to query data lakes using natural language via AI-driven tools like semantic operators or deep research agents.
arXiv:2408. 03910v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in stand-alone code tasks like HumanEval and MBPP, but struggle with handling entire code repositories.
arXiv:2607. 06229v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Major cloud data platforms now expose large language model capabilities as native SQL functions, enabling analysts to perform classification, filtering, sentiment analysis, extraction, similarity search, and aggregation within ordinary SQL queries.
Production data integration is bottlenecked by repeated, lossy handoffs between data owners, engineers, and analysts who must collaboratively discover, structure, and query enterprise data. We present Data Intelligence Agents (DIA), a system of three agents (Data Interpreter, Schema Creator, and Query Generator) that compresses this workflow by treating autonomous coding agents (ACAs) as a first-class abstraction: rather than emitting text, the agents generate, execute, validate, and repair concrete artifacts, draw on a shared memory for experience reuse, and surface each for review by domain experts.
