Abstract
Techniques for modifying a database query are disclosed. A source and/or time associated with an initial database query for execution on a database are determined. A modification of the initial database query is determined based on the source and/or time. The modification includes adding a filter to the initial database query. The modified database query is executed to return a set of results. Optionally, partitions of the database that are relevant to the modified database query may be selected. The modified database query may be executed on only the relevant partitions. The datasets included in the results to the modified database query may be more important, relevant, and/or valuable to a user than the datasets that were excluded based on the filter. The datasets included in the results may be retrieved from faster data storage than the excluded datasets.
