Choosing a plan

1. Compute bounding boxes

2. Use them to generate robust plans and switchable plans

3. Use randomization to collect statistics

Bounding Boxes

“Representing Uncertainty in Statistics” Are the upper and lower bounds for each

estimated statistic

Bounding Boxes

Optimal Plan

1 Plan is optimal for all 3 points

Choice is easy

Optimal Plan

0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350

Robust Plan

1 plan is, or close to, optimal for all 3 points

1 plan can be safely chosen

Robust Plans

Switchable Plan

There is a plan with close to optimal cost plan at each point

Additional Requirements The decision can be

deferred Actual statistics lie must

within bounding box It is possible to switch

between the plans

Switchable

What is a “Switchable” Plan

“Any two members of a switchable plan are said to be switchable with each other.”

Collecting statistics

1. Each operator collects some % in buffer2. The eos(f) is emitted & statistics are calculated3. Plan is chosen from switch plan members or

re-optimization is run4. Query processing proceeds

Questions

Prevalence of switchable plans vs. case 4 How good is Rho at preventing re-

optimizations How is Rho affected by large # estimates

Conclusion

Rho refines statistics and uses switchable plans to forestall re-optimizations and prevent partial data loss
