PWL March - Check Out the Big Brain on BRAD! - Geoffrey Yu from MIT

So many databases—various flavors of OLTP and OLAP—not to mention Document, Graph, Time Series, and Vector databases.

BRAD is a virtualization layer for cloud data infrastructure, currently under development in the Data Systems Group at CSAIL, MIT.

Come hear about BRAD from its author, Geoffrey Xu, a PhD student advised by Tim Kraska. The vision for BRAD and its initial implementation were presented at VLDB, one of the leading database management conferences, in 2023 and 2024.
