Bio

I am an Assistant Professor at Renmin University of China (School of Information, CSRanking’s TOP-3 in Mainland China’s DB Researches). Currently, I am closely working with Prof. Ju Fan.

I did my postdoc with Prof. Guoliang Li at Database group, Tsinghua University. I was awarded the Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, at University of Helsinki, Finland. I am very honored to have Prof. Jiaheng Lu as my Ph.D. supervisor. Prior to joining UH, I spent one year at School of Information, Renmin University of China (RUC) for Ph.D. studies.

My current research topic focuses on performance benchmarking and optimization for cutting-edge data systems including HTAP databases, AI-Enhanced DBMSs, Cloud-Native Databases, and Big Data Systems.
