  • Patent number: 11921716
    Abstract: A method includes parsing a query to determine a plurality of data processing operations associated with the query and including an AS OF JOIN operation between first time series data in a first table and second time series data in a second table. A query plan of the query is generated. The query plan includes a plurality of nodes corresponding to the plurality of data processing operations. At least one of the plurality of nodes corresponding to the AS OF JOIN operation is modified to generate a modified query plan of the query. The modifying is based on applying a UNION operation on at least a first portion of column data in the first table and the second table to obtain a combined table. Execution of the query by at least one of a plurality of computing nodes is scheduled based on the modified query plan.

  • Patent number: 11836132
    Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus for managing a persistent query result set are disclosed. A resource manager is disclosed that receives a query from a client over a computer network. A computer database server is disclosed that executes the query and generates a result set based on and in response to the received query. An execution platform is disclosed that divides the result set into a plurality of chunks, wherein each chunk comprises a portion of the generated result set. The resource manager adds metadata to each of the plurality of chunks. A first chunk of the plurality of chunks comprises metadata pointing to the plurality of chunks. The resource manager delivers at least the first chunk of the plurality of chunks to the client in response to the query. The execution platform offloads the remaining plurality of chunks to cloud storage in parallel.
