  • ENHANCEMENTS FOR OPTIMIZING QUERY EXECUTIONS
    Publication number: 20190294601
    Abstract: In an approach for optimizing query executions a processor receives a request to transfer data from a first table to a second table. A processor detects a relationship between the first table and the second table, wherein the relationship is based on a similarity between the first table and the second table. A processor identifies at least a first access path for transferring the data from the first table to the second table. A processor calculates a first cost of transferring the data from the first table to the second table using the first access path based on the similarity between the first table and the second table, wherein the first cost indicates estimated processor usage to transfer the data.

  • DYNAMIC COMBINATION OF PROCESSES FOR SUB-QUERIES
    Publication number: 20190258639
    Abstract: A tool for combining common processes shared by at least two or more sub-queries within a query is provided. The tool determines whether one or more sub set relationships are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries.

  • Partition access method for query optimization
    Patent number: 10380108
    Abstract: In an approach to determining an access method for a partition in a partition table, a computer receives a query and determines if there is a partition table utilized by the query. When there is a partition table utilized by the query, then the computer determines that a partition in the partition table meets the plurality of conditions of the query. The computer collects a plurality of partition level statistics for the partition that meets the plurality of conditions of the query. Additionally, the computer determines, based, at least in part, on the plurality of partition level statistics, a cost for one or more access methods for the partition that meets the plurality of conditions of the query. Furthermore, the computer determines, based, at least in part, on the cost for each access method, an access method for the partition that meets the plurality of conditions of the query.
