Vineet Garg created HIVE-20432: ---------------------------------- Summary: Rewrite BETWEEN to IN for integer types for stats estimation Key: HIVE-20432 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-20432 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 4.0.0 Reporter: Vineet Garg Assignee: Vineet Garg
IN clause provides better statistics estimation since predicates are equality based and it keeps into account selectivity of all values. BETWEEN is rewritten into {{>= AND <=}} i.e. non-equality predicates which cause worse estimation. For integer types BETWEEN could be rewritten into IN e.g. BETWEEN 4 and 7 is equivalent to IN (4,5,6,7). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
