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.

Enhancements for optimizing query executions

In an approach for query processing, a computer receives a query. The computer determines the received query does not correspond to a previously executed query. The computer parses the received query to identify input literals that include one or more of: data values, tables, fields, records, and a parameter included in the received query. The computer determines whether a pattern is associated with the input literals included in the received query. Responsive to determining a pattern is associated with the input literals, the computer determines a future parameter based on the pattern associated with the input literals, wherein the future parameter is a subsequent instance of a parameter of the received query that corresponds to the pattern. The computer creates a future query by incorporating the determined future parameter into the received query.
