Abstract
A computing device can receive a query in a first query language that identifies a set of data to be processed and determine that at least a portion of the set of data resides in an external data system that uses a different query language. The query system can translate the query in the first query language in to a second query language for the external data system. To retrieve results of the translated query, the computing device may determine a quantity of results of generated by the translated query and generate one or more results readers to read the results in parallel. The computing device may further process the results and provide them to a user.
