Abstract
A system and method processes join requests via independently running engines. A build side table to be joined is allocated among high speed memories of the engines. Each row of a probe side are allocated to the engine likely to have build side data corresponding to the row, and the engine then performs the join. Aggregation statistics may be computed by distributing the information across the engines.
