Abstract
Techniques for fast loading data from an external distributed file system (DFS) to a database management system (DBMS) are provided. Assigning a portion of data from a file located in the DFS to each of a plurality of DFS clients. Configuring each DFS client to interact with a specific gateway from a plurality of gateways associated with the DBMS. Each gateway configured to send its portion of the file received from its designated client to every access module processor (AMP) controlled by that gateway. Each AMP processes a portion of the data received from the gateway to load the data into a table of the DBMS.
