Abstract
Techniques and solutions are provided for improving query execution. Data models can be complex, which is often reflected in queries against such data models. The present disclosure provides a query refactoring technique where a complex query, such as a query expressed as a single select statement, can be formulated as a series of less complex queries. The workload of a database can be reduced by combining results of the less complex queries outside of the database. The present disclosure provides a framework for implementing these techniques, where the framework includes a virtual cube, a calculation engine, and one or more operations, which can all be implemented as classes in a programming language, and where a generic class or interface can help guide users in developing subclasses that provide a reformulation or refactoring of a complex query.
