Integration of optimization and execution of relational calculation models into SQL layer

摘要

A query is received by a database server from a remote application server. The query is associated with a calculation scenario that defines a data flow model that includes one or more nodes that each define one or more operations for execution by a calculation engine on the database server. Thereafter, the database server instantiates a runtime model of the calculation scenario based on the nodes of the instantiated calculation scenario. Subsequently, one or more of the nodes are identified as being convertible into a relational database format. These nodes are then used to form a container node. An execution plan of the runtime model of the calculation scenario including the container node is built that is executed by the database server to result in a data set which is provided by the database server to the application server.
