Abstract
A method for use in processing database queries performed on a database, having tables made up of outer table data and corresponding inner table data, distributed among storage associated with multiple nodes of a multi-threaded cluster of computers is described. The method involves constructing a Bloom filter at nodes by merging Bloom filter components on each node using different startingOffset positions for each thread and then, once the Bloom filter is complete at a node and using the complete Bloom filter as a join filter in a table join operation, without regard to Bloom filter construction occurring at others of the multiple nodes.
