Abstract

A CaQL API is provided by receiving a query directed to a catalog that includes metadata. A catalog access target is determined based at least in part on one or more of the following: a CaQL keyword which is included in the query, a name of a table in the catalog which is included in the query, or a predicate which is included in the query. A catalog function is generated based at least in part on the CaQL keyword and the catalog function is performed on the catalog access target.
