In the big data era, SQL is used by data scientists and software engineers on a daily basis. SQL queries, if written poorly, are slow on large databases, even using state-of-the-art query optimizers. This project aims to develop a super optimizer for SQL queries, which is able to maximally boost the performance of a poorly written query.
