Tips Let's learn a weekly tip from Databend.
What's happening in Databend SQL layer
With #2983 ready for review, Databend's SQL layer will see the arrival of a new planner framework.
In fact, we have a number of plans for refactoring the SQL layer, which may even include a rewritten parser.

Read the planner RFC

In summary, this RFC will:
【This week in Databend #21】Introduce a new framework to support planning JOIN and correlated subquery
Introduce a rule system that allows developer to write transformation rules easily
