Problem space: Distributed databases across shards and heterogeneous storage backends (relational, document, time-series) struggle with cross-shard queries, join planning, and pushdown optimization under varying data locality and bandwidth constraint

CatOpt-Query: Category-Theoretic Compositional Optimizer for Distributed Database Query Planning

Overview

Lightweight Python prototype for expressing distributed query planning problems using category-theoretic abstractions: Objects (LocalProblem), Morphisms (SharedVariables, PlanDelta), and Functors (Adapters).
Provides a canonical representation and a minimal solver to stitch per-shard plans into a global plan with delta-sync semantics.

Project structure

catopt_query/protocol.py: protocol models (LocalProblem, SharedVariables, PlanDelta, CanonicalPlan)
catopt_query/canonical.py: canonical plan representation
catopt_query/adapters.py: adapter scaffolding (vendor -> canonical)
catopt_query/solver.py: tiny ADMM-lite style cross-shard planner
tests/: pytest-based tests for protocol, adapters, and solver

How to run

Run tests: pytest -q
Build: python -m build

This repository follows the MVP goals and aims for a production-ready extension, with a focus on clear interfaces and testability.
