Abstract

The use of statistics collected during the parallel distributed execution of the tasks of a job may be used to optimize the performance of the task or similar recurring tasks. An execution plan for a job is initially generated, in which the execution plan includes tasks. Statistics regarding operations performed in the tasks are collected while the tasks are executed via parallel distributed execution. Another execution plan is then generated for another recurring job, in which the additional execution plan has at least one task in common with the execution plan for the job. The additional execution plan is subsequently optimized based at least on the statistics to produce an optimized execution plan.
