Abstract
A method and system for managing an execution plan in a graph database includes: acquiring a graph query language, analyzing the graph query language by using a scanner to generate a predefined Token, and parsing the predefined Token into a data structure by using a parser to obtain an abstract syntax tree; next, processing the abstract syntax tree by using a planner to generate an execution plan, registering a mapping table to store variables in the execution plan and corresponding variable values, and optimizing the execution plan by using an optimizer, where the execution plan includes customized execution operators and customized topologies; and finally, traversing and scheduling the execution plan by using a scheduler, to output an obtained execution result. The present disclosure modularizes the execution operators, improves reusability, and reduces the development cost. The execution plan is scheduled by using an asynchronous notification mechanism, to reduce blocking.
