Can your database system predict underprovisining before it even happens? Meet ◒ xBound, the very first framework for join size lower bounds. xBound tells you how many tuples your SQL query will produce *at least*. Brought to you by @microsoft.com Gray Systems Lab & @utndatasystems.bsky.social.

Umbra's DP optimizer for queries of ~100 relations ran in cubic time. AWS Redshift's Redset captures a 2,296-relation query. Our revamped DP enumeration optimizes tree queries like snowflakes of *millions* of relations within 1 sec. 🛸 Joint work w/ Altan Birler & Thomas Neumann.
