ABSTRACT:
A relational data base management system includes a query processor that uses a query operator partition property to perform QEP pruning and to ensure that data input to a query operator is partitioned appropriately for the operation. The partition property indicates the group of network nodes across which a table is distributed. The query processor also makes use of partition classes that are designated "interesting classes" to perform preoptimization planning and query pruning, and to perform look-ahead partitioning based on partition classes that are identified as being of interest to future operations, thereby more efficiently evaluating complex query statements in an MPP, shared-nothing environment.
