Abstract
Example solutions for executing a query in a declarative graph query language include receiving the query for data in a database and determining if one or both of i) a pattern in the query, and ii) the data in the database render the query suitable for being executed, at least in part, in parallel. If either condition indicates that the query is suitable for being executed, at least in part, in parallel, one or more fork operations and join operations are injected into a query plan, and the query is executed according to the query plan. Some examples further determine whether executing the query in parallel is computing resource-efficient, and only executes computing resource-efficient queries in parallel.
