Abstract

A method, system and article of manufacture for processing queries that are executed against a database. In one embodiment, the database environment imposes a limit on the number of columns capable of being returned for a single query. Accordingly, a single query is replicated to produce N sub-queries, each selecting a portion of the total number of result fields specified in the single query.
