INCREMENTAL SIMPLIFICATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF COMPLEX QUERIES USING DYNAMIC RESULT FEEDBACK

摘要

Techniques for improving complex database queries are provided. A determination is made whether to adopt a static or dynamic query execution plan for a received database query based on metrics. When a dynamic query execution plan is adopted, the database query is separated into query fragments. A plan fragment is generated for each query fragment and executed to generate feedback for the plan fragment. The feedback from the execution of each plan fragment is used to initiate query rewrite rules to simplify the corresponding query fragments. The rewritten query fragments are combined to generate the dynamic query plan.
