Abstract
An apparatus for dynamically generating query explain data includes modules of operational data and executable code for execution by a computer processor. The modules include a query explain program operating on a workstation. The query explain program communicates over a network with a server hosting a database system and is configured to request generation of query explain data by the database system. A query identification module is configured to communicate with the query explain program to receive a selected query for which a user wishes the database system to generate the query explain data. A system settings module is configured to communicate with the query explain program to receive a user designation of a database system setting with which the user wishes the database system to temporarily comply when generating the query explain data.
