In September 2025, the team delivered targeted improvements to the MariaDB ColumnStore Engine focused on plan quality, reliability, and maintainability. Key features include robust Simple Column (SC) collection in ParseTree to ensure SCs are properly gathered across ArithmeticColumn and AggregateColumn, especially in aggregates and correlated subqueries, preventing missing columns in execution plans; optimizer enhancements that propagate table statistics into EXISTS, IN, and Scalar subqueries to improve plan selection and QA validation; QA/test enhancements for the TPC-H benchmarks to boost reliability; and comprehensive maintenance/tooling improvements (UDF renaming, symbol cleanup, signature compatibility, and shared memory tooling updates) to reduce technical debt. Major bugs fixed include corrections to Simple Column collection in ParseTree, ensuring correct SC propagation through extended collectors, and fixes to SimpleFilter's SimpleColumn list population. These changes collectively improve query performance decisions, execution plan accuracy, and overall system reliability, while also shortening onboarding and change turnover through improved tooling. Technologies demonstrated include advanced C++ parsing and optimization, SQL/ParseTree knowledge, statistics propagation, MTR-based QA, and tooling/CI improvements.

2025-07 Monthly Summary: Delivered substantial optimizer and RBO enhancements, improved QA coverage, and strengthened code quality, resulting in measurable business value through more accurate query planning, more robust builds, and better maintainability. Key features delivered: - EI statistics for optimizer: implemented collection of EI statistics on the first column of existing table indexes, PoC retrieval in getSelectPlan, and application of EI stats for range filters; added mock Histogram support for ES < 11.4 to enable early testing. - RBO rules: statistics-based storage and UNION rewrite with preparation to replace derived-based logic with a table-based approach; identified suitable indexed columns for range partitioning; updated rule matching to consider target table and interesting keys. - QA/RBO enhancements: improved JOIN handling, RC clone support for UNION units, support expressions in RCs, last bound filter predicate refactor, and SimpleColumn list improvements for stability and clarity. - Statistics storage overhaul: refactor of how QA-related statistics are collected and stored, enabling more reliable rule evaluations and easier future extensions. - Maintenance and stability: code cleanup to separate rule logic, ES 10.6 compile fixes, friendlier error messages, and removal of test binaries; build stability improvements to prevent breaks when statistics are unavailable in ES 11.4/11.8. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Increased query planning accuracy and performance predictability through EI statistics integration and range-aware planning. - Reduced build-time failures and improved developer experience with cleaner code separation and clearer errors. - Strengthened QA coverage and symbolism with enhanced rules handling and expressions support, enabling more robust validation of optimizations. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Advanced optimizer statistics integration, statistics storage design, and range partitioning concepts. - RBO rules architecture and QA workflow enhancements. - Cross-version ES compatibility (ES 10.6, ES 11.4/11.8) and code refactor for maintainability. - Focus on business value: improved planning accuracy, reliability, and developer productivity.
