Abstract

The subject technology tracks a plurality of queries corresponding to a plurality of query plans based on join operations contained in each of the plurality of queries and a previous time of executing each query. The subject technology selects a first query plan among the plurality of query plans. The subject technology determines a value indicating an estimated improvement in execution time of the first query plan in comparison to a previous execution time of a previous query plan. The subject technology attempts to execute a first query using the first query plan. The subject technology determines that a second query plan selected among the plurality of query plans has a second estimated execution time that is less than an estimated execution time of the first query plan. The subject technology executes the first query corresponding to the first query plan at a subsequent time using the second query plan.
