In some examples, candidate projection enumeration based query response generation may include obtaining a query, and identifying, based on the query, a plurality of candidate columns from at least one table to respond to the query. Using a tree-based model, the candidate columns may be analyzed to generate a candidate set of projections to respond to the query. Each candidate projection of the candidate set of projections may include a sort order associated with at least one candidate column of the candidate columns, a segmentation key value associated with at least one candidate column of the candidate columns, and a replication value associated with the candidate projection. Based on the candidate set of projections, a response to the query may be generated.
