Abstract

See full text

Techniques are described for reducing the number of sort operations required for a query that contains window functions. The techniques involves determining a set of Partition By and Order By clause pairs that corresponds to the set of window functions and then grouping the Partition By and Order By clause pairs into Ordering Groups where each Ordering Group may be satisfied by a single sort operation. From the set of Ordering Groups, a minimal set of Ordering Groups is determined. The techniques account for the interaction of orderings from Group By and Order By clauses in the query block.
