Evolving hardware, with its mix of different components and changing configurations, complicates how data moves within systems, affecting performance. At the same time, the surge in data-centric analytics and powerful AI models brings a wide range of workloads that systems must handle. The old way of designing systems based on predicted performance doesn't work well anymore, leading to inefficiencies. This talk dives into the complexities of modern hardware and diverse workloads in database systems. It highlights the limitations of standard approaches. It stresses the need for systems that can adapt without relying on fixed assumptions about hardware or workloads. Our goal is to create resilient and efficient database systems ready for heterogeneity and real-time evolution. Anastasia Ailamaki is a Professor of Computer and Communication Sciences at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), a visiting researcher at Google, and the co-founder and Chair of the Board of Directors of RAW Labs SA, a Swiss company developing systems to analyze heterogeneous big data from multiple sources efficiently. She earned a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2000. She has received the 2019 ACM SIGMOD Edgar F. Codd Innovations Award and the 2020 VLDB Women in Database Research Award. She is also the recipient of an ERC Consolidator Award (2013), the Finmeccanica endowed chair from the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon (2007), a European Young Investigator Award from the European Science Foundation (2007), an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship (2005), an NSF CAREER award (2002), twelve best-paper awards in international scientific conferences. She has received the 2018 Nemitsas Prize in Computer Science by the President of Cyprus and the 2021 ARGO Innovation Award by the President of the Hellenic Republic. She is an ACM fellow, an IEEE fellow, a member of the Academia Europaea, and an elected member of the Swiss, the Belgian, the Greek, and the Cypriot National Research Councils.
