Abstract
Techniques are described with respect to processing a federated query. An associated computer-implemented method includes compiling a query received from a client computing system to generate a query statement and a query access plan. The query access plan incorporates a modified database access application programming interface (API) that supports data serialization. The method further includes executing the query access plan to transmit the query statement to a remote database system. The method further includes fetching a query result set from the remote database system including serialized binary large object (BLOB) data. The method further includes deserializing the serialized BLOB data of the query result set and populating an in-memory data structure with deserialized query results. In an embodiment, the method further includes transmitting the deserialized query results to the client computing system. In an additional embodiment, the method further includes generating query serialization capabilities for the remote database system.
