The paper introduces DRL, a deterministic relational middleware layer designed to enable transaction-safe natural‑language to SQL (NL2SQL) interfaces over large enterprise OLTP catalogs. DRL interposes between front‑ends and SQL back‑ends, employing dynamic context pruning, relational AST typing, and transactional safeguards (EXPLAIN gating and NULL guards) to keep context within LLM attention limits and detect silent divergence. Experiments on PostgreSQL and MySQL show significant context reductions (up to 92%) and high execution match rates (≈53%) for GPT‑4o, Claude Sonnet 4.5, and Gemini 2.5 Flash, while also revealing that evaluation code quality can materially affect reported performance gaps.

arXiv:2607. 22572v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models can generate fluent SQL from natural language, but on real enterprise Oracle databases they frequently fail at execution time: columns and aliases are hallucinated and dialect-specific syntax is missed, leading to ORA-00904 invalid-identifier errors.

Abstract: Deploying LLMs for enterprise Text-to-SQL is bottlenecked less by the model than by what context reaches it: business logic spans thousands of tables,...

Organizations that cannot send data to a cloud API increasingly ask: how good is Text-to-SQL if the model must run on-premises on open weights, and which popular accuracy "recipes" are worth their compute? We answer with an honest, fully reproducible benchmark on the BIRD development split (n=1534, Execution Accuracy), evaluating three open model families across two generations -- Qwen2.

arXiv:2608. 13612v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Natural-language interfaces to enterprise data must translate underspecified requests into governed, executable behavior while controlling invalid queries, policy failures, cost, and nondeterminism.

Natural-language interfaces to enterprise data must translate underspecified requests into governed, executable behavior while controlling invalid queries, policy failures, cost, and nondeterminism. SemPlan Benchmark evaluates this architectural design space with a deterministic synthetic bilingual benchmark containing 1,800 cases in English and Brazilian Portuguese; 1,200 cases form the frozen scientific evaluation subset.
arXiv:2608. 19475v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This work introduces a formal semantic-block model for specifications and an execution-judged benchmark for evaluating specification quality independently of model capability.
