Abstract
Techniques for partition pruning based on aggregated zone map information. In one embodiment, for example, a method for pruning partitions based on aggregated zone map information comprises: receiving a query statement comprising a filter predicate on a column of a database table; and pruning one or more partitions of the database table from access paths for processing the query statement based on determining, based on aggregated zone map information associated with the one or more partitions, that the filter predicate cannot be satisfied by data stored in the one or more partitions.
