Scalable and adaptive evaluation of reporting window functions
Abstract:
According to one aspect of the invention, for a database statement that specifies evaluating reporting window functions, a computation-pushdown execution strategy may be used for the database statement. The computation-pushdown execution plan includes producer operators and consolidation operators. Each producer operator computes a respective partial aggregation for each reporting window function based on a subset of rows, and broadcasts the respective partial aggregation. Each consolidation operator fully aggregates all partial aggregations broadcasted from the producer operators. Alternatively, an extended-data-distribution-key execution plan may be used. Each producer operator sends rows based on hash keys to sort operators for computing partial aggregations for at least one reporting window function based on a subset of rows. Each consolidation operator receives and fully aggregates all partial aggregations broadcasted from the sort operators.
