Abstract
A system for query execution planning over ontology-based databases and related methods are disclosed. The system is programmed to receive an ontology query from a user account against an ontology having access controls, and transform the ontology query into a set of database queries, including a plurality of joins. The system is programmed to compute the amounts of data processing associated with executing the plurality of joins in different orders on a sample of the databases representing the ontology, considering how much data in the ontology can be accessed by the user account under the access controls, and determine an execution plan corresponding to a preferred amount of data processing. Furthermore, the system is programmed to execute the set of database queries on the databases according to the execution plan, and transmit a reply to the ontology query to the user device based on a result of the execution.
