Patent number: 11429605Abstract: Joining data using a disjunctive operator is described. An example computer-implemented method can include receiving a query that includes a first disjunctive predicate involving a first table and a second table. The method may also include determining a first set of rows from the first table and generating a filter from the first set of rows. The method may also further include applying the filter to the second table to generate a second set of rows. Additionally, the method may also include joining the first set of rows and the second set of rows using a first disjunctive operator of the first disjunctive predicate to generate a first results set.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2021Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Snowflake Inc.Inventors: Thierry Cruanes, Florian Andreas Funke, Guangyan Hu, Jiaqi Yan

Patent number: 11144550Abstract: The subject technology receives a query plan, the query plan comprising a set of query operations, the set of query operations including at least one aggregation and a join operation, the join operation including a build side and a probe side. The subject technology inserts an aggregation operator below the probe side of the join operation. The subject technology causes the build side of the join operation to generate a hash table. The subject technology causes the build side of the join operation to generate a bloom filter based at least in part on the hash table and provide information, corresponding to properties of the build side, to a bloom filter. Based at least in part on the information, the subject technology determines at least one property of the join operation to determine whether to switch the aggregation operator to a pass through mode.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2020Date of Patent: October 12, 2021Assignee: Snowflake Inc.Inventors: Bowei Chen, Thierry Cruanes, Florian Andreas Funke, Allison Waingold Lee, Jiaqi Yan

Publication number: 20210286817Abstract: Joining data using a disjunctive operator using a lookup table is described. An example computer-implemented method can include receiving a query with a set of conjunctive predicates and a set of disjunctive predicates. The method may also include generating a lookup table for each predicate in the sets of conjunctive predicates and disjunctive predicates. The method, for each row in a probe-side table, may also further include looking up a value associated with that row in each of the lookup tables and adding the row to a results set when there is a match. Additionally, the method may also include returning the results set.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 20, 2021Publication date: September 16, 2021Inventors: Thierry Cruanes, Florian Andreas Funke, Guangyan Hu, Jiaqi Yan

Publication number: 20210263929Abstract: The subject technology receives a query plan, the query plan comprising a set of query operations, the set of query operations including at least one aggregation. The subject technology analyzes the at least one aggregation to generate a modified query plan, the modified query plan including at least a top aggregation operator, an intermediate aggregation operator, and a bottom aggregation operator. The subject technology performs, with respect to the intermediate aggregation operator, at least one operation comprising: the subject technology receives an input intermediate data type; the subject technology performs an internalize operation on the input intermediate data type to generate an internal state; the subject technology performs an accumulate operation on the internal state to generate intermediate data; and the subject technology performs an externalize operation on the intermediate data to generate an output data type.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2020Publication date: August 26, 2021Inventors: Bowei Chen, Thierry Cruanes, Florian Andreas Funke, Allison Waingold Lee, Jiaqi Yan

Publication number: 20210240670Abstract: Data in a micro-partition of a table is stored in a compressed form. In response to a database query on the table comprising a filter, the portion of the data on which the filter operates is decompressed, without decompressing other portions of the data. Using the filter on the decompressed portion of the data, the portions of the data that are responsive to the filter are determined and decompressed. The responsive data is returned in response to the database query. When a query is run on a table that is compressed using dictionary compression, the uncompressed data may be returned along with the dictionary look-up values. The recipient of the data may use the dictionary look-up values for memoization, reducing the amount of computation required to process the returned data.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2020Publication date: August 5, 2021Inventors: Selcuk Aya, Bowei Chen, Florian Andreas Funke

Publication number: 20210232583Abstract: The subject technology provides information, corresponding to properties of a build side of a join operation, to a bloom filter. The subject technology, based at least in part on the information from the bloom filter, determines, during executing of a query plan, at least one property of the join operation to determine whether to switch an aggregation operator to a pass through mode, the at least one property comprising at least a reduction rate. The subject technology, switches, in response to the reduction rate being below a threshold value, the aggregation operator to the pass through mode during runtime of the query plan and, while the aggregation operator is in the pass through mode, an input stream of data goes through the aggregation operator without being analyzed and the input stream of data matches an output stream of data flowing out of the aggregation operator.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2021Publication date: July 29, 2021Inventors: Bowei Chen, Thierry Cruanes, Florian Andreas Funke, Allison Waingold Lee, Jiaqi Yan
