There is a large body of recent work applying machine learning (ML) techniques to query optimization and query performance prediction in relational database management systems (RDBMSs). However, these works typically ignore the effect of textit{intra-parallelism} -- a key component used to boost the performance of OLAP queries in practice -- on query performance prediction. In this paper, we take a first step towards filling this gap by studying the problem of textit{tuning the degree of parallelism (DOP) via ML techniques} in Microsoft SQL Server, a popular commercial RDBMS that allows an individual query to execute using multiple cores. In our study, we cast the problem of DOP tuning as a {em regression} task, and examine how several popular ML models can help with query performance prediction in a multi-core setting. We explore the design space and perform an extensive experimental study comparing different models against a list of performance metrics, testing how well they generalize in different settings: $(i)$ to queries from the same template, $(ii)$ to queries from a new template, $(iii)$ to instances of different scale, and $(iv)$ to different instances and queries. Our experimental results show that a simple featurization of the input query plan that ignores cost model estimations can accurately predict query performance, capture the speedup trend with respect to the available parallelism, as well as help with automatically choosing an optimal per-query DOP.

As Knowledge Graphs (KGs) continue to gain widespread momentum for use in different domains, storing the relevant KG content and efficiently executing queries over them are becoming increasingly important. A range of Data Management Systems (DMSs) ha ve been employed to process KGs. This paper aims to provide an in-depth analysis of query performance across diverse DMSs and KG query types. Our aim is to provide a fine-grained, comparative analysis of four major DMS types, namely, row-, column-, graph-, and document-stores, against major query types, namely, subject-subject, subject-object, tree-like, and optional joins. In particular, we analyzed the performance of row-store Virtuoso, column-store Virtuoso, Blazegraph (i.e., graph-store), and MongoDB (i.e., document-store) using five well-known benchmarks, namely, BSBM, WatDiv, FishMark, BowlognaBench, and BioBench-Allie. Our results show that no single DMS displays superior query performance across the four query types. In particular, row- and column-store Virtuoso are a factor of 3-8 faster for tree-like joins, Blazegraph performs around one order of magnitude faster for subject-object joins, and MongoDB performs over one order of magnitude faster for high-selective queries.
The broadening adoption of machine learning in the enterprise is increasing the pressure for strict governance and cost-effective performance, in particular for the common and consequential steps of model storage and inference. The RDBMS provides a n atural starting point, given its mature infrastructure for fast data access and processing, along with support for enterprise features (e.g., encryption, auditing, high-availability). To take advantage of all of the above, we need to address a key concern: Can in-RDBMS scoring of ML models match (outperform?) the performance of dedicated frameworks? We answer the above positively by building Raven, a system that leverages native integration of ML runtimes (i.e., ONNX Runtime) deep within SQL Server, and a unified intermediate representation (IR) to enable advanced cross-optimizations between ML and DB operators. In this optimization space, we discover the most exciting research opportunities that combine DB/Compiler/ML thinking. Our initial evaluation on real data demonstrates performance gains of up to 5.5x from the native integration of ML in SQL Server, and up to 24x from cross-optimizations--we will demonstrate Raven live during the conference talk.

Recently, the database management system (DBMS) community has witnessed the power of machine learning (ML) solutions for DBMS tasks. Despite their promising performance, these existing solutions can hardly be considered satisfactory. First, these ML- based methods in DBMS are not effective enough because they are optimized on each specific task, and cannot explore or understand the intrinsic connections between tasks. Second, the training process has serious limitations that hinder their practicality, because they need to retrain the entire model from scratch for a new DB. Moreover, for each retraining, they require an excessive amount of training data, which is very expensive to acquire and unavailable for a new DB. We propose to explore the transferabilities of the ML methods both across tasks and across DBs to tackle these fundamental drawbacks. In this paper, we propose a unified model MTMLF that uses a multi-task training procedure to capture the transferable knowledge across tasks and a pre-train fine-tune procedure to distill the transferable meta knowledge across DBs. We believe this paradigm is more suitable for cloud DB service, and has the potential to revolutionize the way how ML is used in DBMS. Furthermore, to demonstrate the predicting power and viability of MTMLF, we provide a concrete and very promising case study on query optimization tasks. Last but not least, we discuss several concrete research opportunities along this line of work.

The size of deep neural networks (DNNs) grows rapidly as the complexity of the machine learning algorithm increases. To satisfy the requirement of computation and memory of DNN training, distributed deep learning based on model parallelism has been w idely recognized. We propose a new pipeline parallelism training framework, BaPipe, which can automatically explore pipeline parallelism training methods and balanced partition strategies for DNN distributed training. In BaPipe, each accelerator calculates the forward propagation and backward propagation of different parts of networks to implement the intra-batch pipeline parallelism strategy. BaPipe uses a new load balancing automatic exploration strategy that considers the parameters of DNN models and the computation, memory, and communication resources of accelerator clusters. We have trained different DNNs such as VGG-16, ResNet-50, and GNMT on GPU clusters and simulated the performance of different FPGA clusters. Compared with state-of-the-art data parallelism and pipeline parallelism frameworks, BaPipe provides up to 3.2x speedup and 4x memory reduction in various platforms.
Machine learning (ML) has proven itself in high-value web applications such as search ranking and is emerging as a powerful tool in a much broader range of enterprise scenarios including voice recognition and conversational understanding for customer support, autotuning for videoconferencing, intelligent feedback loops in large-scale sysops, manufacturing and autonomous vehicle management, complex financial predictions, just to name a few. Meanwhile, as the value of data is increasingly recognized and monetized, concerns about securing valuable data and risks to individual privacy have been growing. Consequently, rigorous data management has emerged as a key requirement in enterprise settings. How will these trends (ML growing popularity, and stricter data governance) intersect? What are the unmet requirements for applying ML in enterprise settings? What are the technical challenges for the DB community to solve? In this paper, we present our vision of how ML and database systems are likely to come together, and early steps we take towards making this vision a reality.
