Abstract
Techniques and solutions are provided for implementing query constraints. A keyword in a query language is provided that indicates the presence of a constraint. During query execution, if the constraint is not satisfied, the query can be terminated/caused to fail. In some cases, the keyword is introduced into a query by a query optimizer. In a specific example, the keyword is introduced as part of optimizing a query where at least some query operations are performed using a federated database system. The keyword indicating the constraint can be included in a query language statement and sent to the federated database system for execution. If the constraint is not satisfied, the federated database system can send a failure notification to the main database system.
