A system and method for processing of queries including receiving a query including a set operation and a sort operation, wherein the set operation includes a first data structure and a second data structure and the sort operation requests a result set that is sorted based on a column or attribute of the first data structure and a column or attribute of the second data structure; generating a query plan in which a sort operation occurs prior to the set operation; determining a first, partial set of one or more resultant rows responsive to the query; sending the first, partial set of one or more resultant rows responsive to the query to a client; determining a second, partial set of one or more resultant rows responsive to the query; and sending the second, partial set of one or more resultant rows to the client.

Sort optimization

A system and method for receiving, using one or more processors, a query including an index predicate; determining, using the one or more processors, that the query includes a default to table scan issue; and responsive to determining that the query includes a default to table scan issue, generating, using the one or more processors, one or more synthesized predicates used to process the query using an index scan.

Synthesized predicate driven index selection for partitioned table

A system and method for receiving a query of a partitioned table, the query including a first index predicate associated with a first partition key column; determining that one or more of the query is missing a second index predicate and the first index predicate is unusable for index probing; responsive to determining that one or more of the query is missing the second index predicate and the first index predicate is unusable for index probing, generating one or more synthesized predicates used to process the query using an index scan.

A system and method for efficient query processing using multiple indices in a join operation are described. In one embodiment, a join query including a join operation on a first table and a second table and including a first condition and a second condition is received, wherein the first condition is based on a first index of the second table, and the second condition based on a second index of the second table; a first result set is determined by index scanning the second table using the first index as an index key; a second result set is determined by index scanning the second table using the second index as the index key; a third result set is determined by applying a set operation to the first result set and the second result set; and the third result set is provided in response to the join query.
