Abstract
A data store may implement dynamic query predicates for processing queries. Query predicate indexes may be maintained for individual storage locations in a data store. The query predicate indexes may indicate data values not stored in the storage location that satisfy a query predicate in the query predicate index. The query predicate index may be populated when queries are received at the data store which include new query predicates. When queries are received that include query predicates that correspond to query predicates in the query predicate index, the index values for each of the storage locations may be evaluated. Based, at least in part, on the evaluation, particular storage locations may be identified to read for servicing the queries.
