Abstract
A method for processing a query for data stored in a distributed database includes receiving, at an edge device, the query for data stored in the distributed database from a query device. The query is a request for data stored at the edge device and for data stored at other edge devices. The method includes executing, by the edge device, the query to find partial query results comprising the data stored at the edge device. The method includes generating, by the edge device, statistical information based on the partial query results. The method includes determining, by the edge device, a statistical confidence associated with the partial results based on the statistical information. The method includes generating, by the edge device, an approximate response to the query based on the statistical information. The method includes transmitting the approximate response to the query device.
