Abstract
Methods and arrangements for mapping a query operation to an accelerator are provided. The method includes receiving, by a processor, a query operation and determining the design logic of the query operation, receiving a configuration of one or more available accelerators and a design logic of each of the one or more available accelerators, and determining if the query operation can be offloaded to one or more of the one or more available accelerators. Based on a determination that the query operation can be offloaded to one or more of the one or more available accelerators, the method also includes creating software structures to interface with a selected accelerator and executing the query operation on the selected accelerator. Based on a determination that the query operation cannot be offloaded to one or more of the one or more available accelerators, the method further includes executing the query operation in software.
