  • Publication number: 20230048391
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a statement graph for a procedure that is used to access data and determines a set of producer statements and a set of consumer statements in the statement graph. A producer statement produces a variable for a consumer statement, and the consumer statement consumes the variable from the producer statement. The method optimizes the statement graph to generate an optimized procedure by moving an operator from a consumer statement to a producer statement or by moving an operator from a producer statement to a consumer statement. The optimized procedure is output based on the optimized statement graph.
