Abstract
A method for pre-utilizing tables before refresh includes selecting a query for execution in a data analytics application and identifying a table specified by the query, for instance a materialized table. Another operation includes computing an encoding, such as a hash value, for at least one portion of the identified table. Another operation includes comparing the computed encoding to a pre-stored encoding for the at least one portion of the identified table. On the condition that the computed encoding is identical to the pre-stored encoding, the operations include utilizing the identified table in executing the query in lieu of re-materializing the identified table. Otherwise, on the condition that the computed encoding differs from the pre-stored encoding, the operations include re-materializing the identified table before returning the results of the query.
