Abstract
Systems, methodologies, media, and other embodiments associated with supporting queries with hard time constraints are described. One exemplary system embodiment includes logic for accepting a query having a hard time constraint. The example system may also include logic for selectively rewriting the query having the hard time constraint into a query having a row limitation or a sample percentage limitation. In one example, the row limitation or sample percentage limitation are computed by repetitively comparing an estimated query execution time to the hard time constraint. The example system may also include logic for establishing a timer(s) associated with the rewritten query.
