Abstract

According to an aspect, a system includes a query engine configured to obtain a multi-provider query model for a query specifying a filter to be applied on provider partitions. The obtained multi-provider query model incorporates a pruning plan. The query engine includes a query optimizer configured to execute the pruning plan during optimization of the multi-provider query model. The pruning plan determines if each of the provider partitions includes content that is required to execute the filter based on pruning information. The query optimizer configured to reduce a scope of the query by excluding at least one provider partition that is determined as not required to execute the filter.
