Great work. It&#x27;s a counter-example of my meme where few learn from the past of our field. The author dug deep into the topics to find whatever he could. The author mixed that with incredibly different way of looking at things for a truly original work. The author focused on the right areas to prevent bottlenecks where it counted. Probably the best work I&#x27;ve seen on databases in a while.<p>I expect plenty more to come from this.
