In his technical review of the Memphis paper, Arun Kumar (UC San Diego) explains that the paper demonstrates how classical database principles, such as query optimization, caching, and memory management, are becoming essential for operating AI infrastructure efficiently and sustainably.
The research addresses a key challenge at the intersection of data engineering and machine learning.

Harry aims to make querying across disconnected databases faster, more affordable, and easier, since fragmentation is a key challenge in our data-driven world.
Harry is a self-declared database guy and motorcycle enthusiast who counts Edgar F. Codd among his greatest inspirations. He is also a Software Campus graduate.
