Goal of Query Rewrite • Make queries as declarative as possible: • Poorly expressed queries could force the optimizer into choosing suboptimal plans • Perform natural heuristics • For example, “predicate pushdown”
Components of Rewrite Engine • Rewrite rules (more later) • Rule engine • control strategies • sequential (rules are processed sequentially) • priority (higher priority rules are given a chance first) • statistical (next rule is chosen randomly based on a user defined probability distribution • budget • to avoid spending too much time on rewrites, the processing stops at a consistent state of QGM when the budget is exhausted • Search facility • browses through QGM providing the context for the rules to work on
Problem • How do we choose between competing incompatible transformations? • Optimal solution: apply cost analysis and pick the transformation leading to a cheaper plan • Practical solution (why?): generate multiple alternatives and send them to plan optimization phase (problems?)
Rewrite Rules: SELECT Merge CREATE VIEW itpv AS (SELECT DISTINCT itp.itemn, pur.vendn FROM itp, pur WHERE itp.ponum = pur.ponum AND pur.odate > ’85’) SELECT itm.itmn, itpv.vendn FROM itm, itpv WHERE itm.itemn = itpv.itemn AND itm.itemn > ’01’ AND itm.itemn < ’20’ SELECT DISTINCT itm.itmn, pur.vendn FROM itm, itp, pur WHERE itp.ponum = pur.ponum AND itm.itemn = itpv.itemn AND pur.odate > ’85’ AND itm.itemn > ’01’ AND itm.itemn < ’20’ Speedup: 200 times
Rewrite Rules: Existential Subquery Merge SELECT * FROM itp WHERE itm.itemn IN ( SELECT itl.itmn FROM itl WHERE itl.wkcen = ‘WK468’ AND itl.locan= ‘L’) SELECT DISTINCT itp.* FROM itp, itl WHERE itp.itmn = itl.itemn AND itl.wkcen = ‘WK468’ AND itl.locan= ‘L’ Speedup: 15 times
Rewrite Rules:Intersect to Exists SELECT itemn FROM wor WHERE empno = ‘EMPN1279’ INTERSECT SELECT itmn FROM itl WHERE entry_time = ‘9773’ AND wkctr= ‘WK195’) SELECT DISTINCT itemn FROM wor, itl WHERE empno = ‘EMPN1279’ entry_time = ‘9773’ AND wkctr= ‘WK195’) AND itl.itmn = wor.itemn Speedup: 8 times
The Count Bug (cont.) parts(PNUM,QOH) supply(PNUM,QUAN,SHIPDATE) Query: Find the part numbers of those parts whose quantities on hand equal the number of shipments of those parts before 1-1-80. select PNUM from parts where QOH = ( select count(SHIPDATE) from supply where supply.PNUM = parts.PNUM and SHIPDATE < 1-1-80)
The Count Bug (cont.) select PNUM from parts where QOH = ( select count(SHIPDATE) from supply where supply.PNUM = parts.PNUM and SHIPDATE < 1-1-80) temp (SUPPNUM,CT) = (select PNUM, count(SHIPDATE) from supply where SHIPDATE < 1-1-80) group by PNUM) select PNUM from parts, temp where parts.QOH = temp.CT and temp.PNUM = parts.PNUM
The Count Bug (cont.) Parts Supply select PNUM from parts where QOH = ( select count(SHIPDATE) from supply where supply.PNUM = parts.PNUM and SHIPDATE < 1-1-80) Result
The Count Bug (cont.) Parts Supply Temp temp (SUPPNUM,CT) = (select PNUM, count(SHIPDATE) from supply where SHIPDATE < 1-1-80) group by PNUM)
The Count Bug (cont.) Parts Temp Result select PNUM from parts, temp where parts.QOH = temp.CT and temp.PNUM = parts.PNUM
The Count Bug – solutionwith outer joins temp (SUPPNUM,CT) = (select parts.PNUM, count(SHIPDATE) from parts, supply where SHIPDATE < 1-1-80 and parts.PNUM =+ supply.PNUM group by parts.PNUM) parts.PNUM =+ supply.PNUM (for SHIPDATE < 1-1-80)
