Abstract
Techniques are disclosed relating to database query optimizers. In some embodiments, a system receives, from a query optimizer, a plurality of query plans for a database maintained by the database system. The system retrieves a set of database statistics for the database and generates, via a data synthesizer, a plurality of synthetic datasets, where generating a given synthetic dataset is performed based on a given query plan of the plurality of query plans and the set of database statistics, and includes generating a plurality of synthetic data tuples. The system executes the plurality of query plans on the plurality of synthetic datasets and updates the query optimizer based on results of executing the plurality of query plans on the plurality of synthetic datasets. The disclosed data synthesis may advantageously improve query performance due to more efficient query plans being selected for execution of requested queries.
