Abstract
Techniques that facilitate management of skewed data during a parallel multiple join operation are provided. Portions of tables involved in the join operation can be distributed among a plurality of processing modules, and each of the processing modules can be provided with a list of skewed values of a join column of a larger table involved in the join operation. Each of the processing modules can scan the rows of first and second tables distributed to the processing modules and compare values of the join columns of both tables with the list of skewed values. One or more of the processing modules can then redistribute the skewed values.
