• Memoization
• Queries in heterogenous systems
• Query evaluation strategies
• Eddies
• Open-ended and stream-based queries
Introduction
• Alternative ways of evaluating a given query– Equivalent expressions– Different algorithms for each operation (Chapter 13)
• Cost difference between a good and a bad way of evaluating a query can be enormous– Example: performing a r X s followed by a selection r.A = s.B is
much slower than performing a join on the same condition
• Need to estimate the cost of operations– Depends critically on statistical information about relations which
the database must maintain– Need to estimate statistics for intermediate results to compute cost
of complex expressions
Introduction (Cont.)
Relations generated by two equivalent expressions have the same set of attributes and contain the same set of tuples, although their attributes may be ordered differently.
Introduction (Cont.)
• Generation of query-evaluation plans for an expression involves several steps:
1. Generating logically equivalent expressions
• Use equivalence rules to transform an expression into an equivalent one.
2. Annotating resultant expressions to get alternative query plans
3. Choosing the cheapest plan based on estimated cost
• The overall process is called cost based optimization.
Equivalence Rules1. Conjunctive selection operations can be deconstructed
into a sequence of individual selections.
2. Selection operations are commutative.
3. Only the last in a sequence of projection operations is needed, the others can be omitted.
4. Selections can be combined with Cartesian products and theta joins.
a. (E1 X E2) = E1 E2
b. 1(E1 2 E2) = E1 1 2 E2

Equivalence Rules (Cont.)
5. Theta-join operations (and natural joins) are commutative.E1 E2 = E2 E1
6. (a) Natural join operations are associative:
(E1 E2) E3 = E1 (E2 E3)
(b) Theta joins are associative in the following manner:
(E1 1 E2) 2 3 E3 = E1 2 3 (E2 2 E3) where 2 involves attributes from only E2 and E3.
Pictorial Depiction of Equivalence Rules
Equivalence Rules (Cont.)
7. The selection operation distributes over the theta join operation under the following two conditions:(a) When all the attributes in 0 involve only the attributes of one of the expressions (E1) being joined.
0E1 E2) = (0(E1)) E2
(b) When 1 involves only the attributes of E1 and 2 involves only the attributes of E2.
1 E1 E2) = (1(E1)) ( (E2))
Equivalence Rules (Cont.)
8. The projections operation distributes over the theta join operation as follows:
(a) if involves only attributes from L1 L2:
(b) Consider a join E1 E2. – Let L1 and L2 be sets of attributes from E1 and E2,
respectively. – Let L3 be attributes of E1 that are involved in join
condition , but are not in L1 L2, and– let L4 be attributes of E2 that are involved in join
condition , but are not in L1 L2.

Equivalence Rules (Cont.)9. The set operations union and intersection are commutative
E1 E2 = E2 E1 E1 E2 = E2 E1
(set difference is not commutative).
10. Set union and intersection are associative.
(E1 E2) E3 = E1 (E2 E3)
(E1 E2) E3 = E1 (E2 E3)
11. The selection operation distributes over , and –.
(E1 – E2) = (E1) – (E2)
and similarly for and in place of –
Also: (E1 – E2) = (E1) – E2
and similarly for in place of –, but not for 12. The projection operation distributes over union
L(E1 E2) = (L(E1)) (L(E2))
Multiple Transformations (Cont.)
Optimizer strategies
• Heuristic
– Apply the transformation rules in a specific order such that the cost converges to a minimum
• Cost based
– Simulated annealing
– Randomized generation of candidate QEP
– Problem, how to guarantee randomness
Memoization Techniques
• How to generate alternative Query Evaluation Plans?
– Early generation systems centred around a tree representation of the plan
– Hardwired tree rewriting rules are deployed to enumerate part of the space of possible QEP
– For each alternative the total cost is determined
– The best (alternatives) are retained for execution
– Problems: very large space to explore, duplicate plans, local maxima, expensive query cost evaluation.
– SQL Server optimizer contains about 300 rules to be deployed.
Memoization Techniques
• How to generate alternative Query Evaluation Plans?
– Keep a memo of partial QEPs and their cost.
– Use the heuristic rules to generate alternatives to built more complex QEPs

r1 r2 r2 r3 r3 r4 r1 r4

Distributed Query Processing
• For centralized systems, the primary criterion for measuring the cost of a particular strategy is the number of disk accesses.
• In a distributed system, other issues must be taken into account:
– The cost of a data transmission over the network.
– The potential gain in performance from having several sites process parts of the query in parallel.
Transformation rules for distributed systems
• Primary horizontally fragmented table:
– Rule 9: The union is commutative E1 E2 = E2 E1
– Rule 10: Set union is associative. (E1 E2) E3 = E1 (E2 E3)
– Rule 12: The projection operation distributes over union
L(E1 E2) = (L(E1)) (L(E2))
• Derived horizontally fragmented table:
– The join through foreign-key dependency is already reflected in the fragmentation criteria
Transformation rules for distributed systems
Vertical fragmented tables:
– Rules: Hint look at projection rules
Optimization in Par & Distr
• Cost model is changed!!!
– Network transport is a dominant cost factor
• The facilities for query processing are not homogenous distributed
– Light-resource systems form a bottleneck
– Need for dynamic load scheduling
Simple Distributed Join Processing
• Consider the following relational algebra expression in which the three relations are neither replicated nor fragmented
account depositor branch
• account is stored at site S1
• depositor at S2
• branch at S3
• For a query issued at site SI, the system needs to produce the result at site SI
Possible Query Processing Strategies
• Ship copies of all three relations to site SI and choose a strategy for processing the entire locally at site SI.
• Ship a copy of the account relation to site S2 and compute temp1 = account depositor at S2. Ship temp1 from S2 to S3, and compute temp2 = temp1 branch at S3. Ship the result temp2 to SI.
• Devise similar strategies, exchanging the roles S1, S2, S3
• Must consider following factors:– amount of data being shipped – cost of transmitting a data block between sites– relative processing speed at each site
Semijoin Strategy
• Let r1 be a relation with schema R1 stores at site S1
Let r2 be a relation with schema R2 stores at site S2
• Evaluate the expression r1 r2 and obtain the result at S1.
1. Compute temp1 R1 R2 (r1) at S1.
2. Ship temp1 from S1 to S2.
3. Compute temp2 r2 temp1 at S2
4. Ship temp2 from S2 to S1.
5. Compute r1 temp2 at S1. This is the same as r1 r2.
Formal Definition
• The semijoin of r1 with r2, is denoted by:
r1 r2
• it is defined by:
R1 (r1 r2)
• Thus, r1 r2 selects those tuples of r1 that contributed to r1 r2.
• In step 3 above, temp2=r2 r1.
• For joins of several relations, the above strategy can be extended to a series of semijoin steps.
Join Strategies that Exploit Parallelism
• Consider r1 r2 r3 r4 where relation ri is stored at site Si. The
result must be presented at site S1.
• r1 is shipped to S2 and r1 r2 is computed at S2: simultaneously r3 is
shipped to S4 and r3 r4 is computed at S4
• S2 ships tuples of (r1 r2) to S1 as they produced;
S4 ships tuples of (r3 r4) to S1
• Once tuples of (r1 r2) and (r3 r4) arrive at S1 (r1 r2) (r3
r4) is computed in parallel with the computation of (r1 r2) at S2 and
the computation of (r3 r4) at S4.
Query plan generation
• Apers-Aho-Hopcroft
– Hill-climber, repeatedly split the multi-join query in fragments and optimize its subqueries independently
• Apply centralized algorithms and rely on cost-model to avoid expensive query execution plans.
Query evaluators
Query evaluation strategy
• Pipe-line query evaluation strategy
– Called Volcano query processing model
– Standard in commercial systems and MySQL
• Basic algorithm:
– Demand-driven evaluation of query tree.
– Operators exchange data in units such as records
– Each operator supports the following interfaces:– open, next, close
• open() at top of tree results in cascade of opens down the tree.
• An operator getting a next() call may recursively make next() calls from within to produce its next answer.
• close() at top of tree results in cascade of close down the tree
Query evaluation strategy
• Pipe-line query evaluation strategy
– Evaluation:
• Oriented towards OLTP applications– Granule size of data interchange
• Items produced one at a time
• No temporary files– Choice of intermediate buffer size allocations
• Query executed as one process
• Generic interface, sufficient to add the iterator primitives for the new containers.
• CPU intensive
• Amenable to parallelization
Query evaluation strategy
• Materialized evaluation strategy
– Used in MonetDB
– Basic algorithm:
• for each relational operator produce the complete intermediate result using materialized operands
– Evaluation:
• Oriented towards decision support queries
• Limited internal administration and dependencies
• Basis for multi-query optimization strategy
• Memory intensive
• Amendable for distributed/parallel processing
Eddies: Continuously Adaptive Query processing
R. Avnur, J.M. Hellerstein
UCB
ACM Sigmod 2000
Problem Statement
• Context: large federated and shared-nothing databases
• Problem: assumptions made at query optimization rarely hold during execution
• Hypothesis: do away with traditional optimizers, solve it thru adaptation
• Focus: scheduling in a tuple-based pipeline query execution model
Problem Statement Refinement
• Large scale systems are unpredictable, because
– Hardware and workload complexity,
• bursty servers & networks, heterogenity, hardware characteristics
– Data complexity,
• Federated database often come without proper statistical summaries
– User Interface Complexity
• Online aggregation may involve user ‘control’
Research Laboratory setting
• Telegraph, a system designed to query all data available online
• River, a low level distributed record management system for shared-nothing databases
• Eddies, a scheduler for dispatching work over operators in a query graph
The Idea
• Relational algebra operators consume a stream from multiple sources to produce a new stream
• A priori you don’t now how selective- how fast- tuples are consumed/produced
• You have to adapt continuously and learn this information on the fly
• Adapt the order of processing based on these lessons
The Idea
JOIN JOIN
JOIN
next
next next
next
next next
The Idea
• Standard method: derive a spanning tree over the query graph
• Pre-optimize a query plan to determine operator pairs and their algorithm, e.g. to exploit access paths
• Re-optimization a query pipeline on the fly requires careful state management, coupled with
– Synchronization barriers
• Operators have widely differing arrival rates for their operands– This limits concurrency, e.g. merge-join algorithm
– Moments of symmetry
• Algorithm provides option to exchange the role of the operands without too much complications
– E.g switching the role of R and S in a nested-loop join
Nested-loop
R
s
Join and sorting
• Index-joins are asymmetric, you can not easily change their role
– Combine index-join + operands as a unit in the process
• Sorting requires look-ahead
– Merge-joins are combined into unit
• Ripple joins
– Break the space into smaller pieces and solve the join operation for each piece individually
– The piece crossings are moments of symmetry
The Idea

Rivers and Eddies
Eddies are tuple routers that distribute arriving tuples to interested operators
– What are efficient scheduling policies?
• Fixed strategy? Random ? Learning?
Static Eddies• Delivery of tuples to operators can be hardwired in the Eddie to reflect
a traditional query execution plan
Naïve Eddie
• Operators are delivered tuples based on a priority queue
• Intermediate results get highest priority to avoid buffer congestion
Observations for selections
• Extended priority queue for the operators– Receiving a tuple leads to a credit increment
– Returning a tuple leads to a credit decrement
– Priority is determined by “weighted lottery”
• Naïve Eddies exhibit back pressure in the tuple flow; production is limited by the rate of consumption at the output
• Lottery Eddies approach the cost of optimal ordering, without a need to a priory determine the order
• Lottery Eddies outperform heuristics
– Hash-use first, or Index-use first, Naive
Observations
• The dynamics during a run can be controlled by a learning scheme
– Split the processing in steps (‘windows’) to re-adjust the weight during tuple delivery
• Initial delays can not be handled efficiently
• Research challenges:
– Better learning algorithms to adjust flow
– Aggressive adjustments
– Remove pre-optimization
– Balance ‘hostile’ parallel environment
– Deploy eddies to control degree of partitioning (and replication)

Continuous queries
• Continous query – the user observes the changes made to the database through a query
– Query registration once
– Continously up-to-date answers.Continuousqueries
RDBMS
Data Streams
• Data streams
– The database is in constant bulk load mode
– The update rate is often non-uniform
– The entries are time-stamped
– The source could be web-service, sensor, wrapped source

DBMS versus DSMS
• Persistent relations
• Transaction oriented
• One-time queries
• Precise query answering
• Access plan determines physical database design
• Transient streams
• Query orientation
• Continuous queries
• Best-effort query answering
• Unpredictable data characteristics
Old technology to rescue?
• Many stream based applications are low-volume with simple queries
– Thus we can live with automatic query ‘refresh’
• Triggers are available for notification of changes
– They are hooked up to simple changes to the datastore
– There is no technology to merge/optimize trigger groups

and t3.name = “T-Mobile” and t4.name= t3.name

and t3.price = t4.price
Query signatures
• Traditional SQL applications already use the notion of parameterised queries, I.e. some constants are replaced by a program variable.
– Subsequent calls use the same query evaluation plan
• In a DSMS we should recognize such queries as quick as possible
– Organize similar queries into a group
– Decompose complex queries into smaller queries
– Manage the amount of intermediate store
Finance
• Queries can be organized in groups using a signature and evaluation can be replaced by single multi-user request.
Select notifyUser(name, price)
From ticker t1
Where t1.name = “KPN” and t1.price < 6

• Intermediate results should be materialized. Can be integrated in tradition query evaluation schemes
t1.timestamp=t3.timestamp and t2.timestamp=t4.timestamp
Sensor networks
• [Madden] Sensor networks are composed of thousands of small devices, interconnected through radio links. This network can be queried.
– Sensors have limited energy
– Sensors have limited reachability
– Sensors can be ‘crushed’
DSMS
Aggregate Queries Over Ad-Hoc Wireless Sensor Networks
Sensor networks
• Q7 Give me the traffic density on the A1 for the last hour
Select avg(t.car)
From traffic t
Where t.segment in (Select segment From roads
Where name = “A1”)
Group By gethour(t.timestamp)
Sensor networks
• The sensors should organize themselves into a P2P infrastructure
• An aggregate query is broadcasted through the network
• Each Mote calculates a partial answer and sent it to its peers
• Peers aggregate the information to produce the final answer.
• Problems
– The energy to broadcast some information is high
– Tuples and partial results may be dropped
Conclusions and outlook
• Data stream management technology require changes in our expectation of a DBMS functionality
– Queries not necessarily provide a precise answer
– Queries continue as long as we are interested in their approximate result
– The persistent store not necessarily contains a consistent and timeless view on the state of the database.
Conclusions and outlook
• Datastream management technology capitalizes upon proven DBMS technology
• DSMS provide a basis for ambient home settings, sensor networks, and globe spanning information systems
• It is realistic to expect that some of the properties to support efficient datastream management will become part of the major products
– Multi query optimization techniques should be added.
