Summary: Simplify predicates for CBO
Key: HIVE-7913
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7913
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CBO
Affects Versions: 0.13.1
Reporter: Mostafa Mokhtar
Fix For: 0.14.0
I noticed that the estimate number of rows in Map joins is higher after the
join than before the join that is with column stats fetch ON or OFF.
TPC-DS Q55 was a good example for that, the issue is that the current
statistics provide us enough information that we can estimate with strong
confidence that the joins are one to many and not many to many.
Joining store_sales x item on ss_item_sk = i_item_sk, we know that the NDV, min
and max values for both join columns match while the row counts are different
this pattern indicates a PK/FK relationship between store_sales and item.
Yet when a filter is applied on item and reduces the number of rows from 462K
to 7K we estimate a many to many join between the filtered item and store_sales
and as a result the estimate number of rows coming out of the join is off by
several orders of magnitude.
Available information from the stats
{code}
Table Join column NDV from describe NDV actual
min max
item i_item_sk 439,501 462,000
1 462,000
date_dim d_date_sk 65,332 73,049
2,415,022 2,488,070
store_sales ss_item_sk 439,501 462,000
1 462,000
store_sales ss_sold_date_sk 2,226 1,823
2,450,816 2,452,642
{code}
Same thing applies to store_sales and date_dim but with a caveat that the NDV ,
min and max values don't match where date_dim has a bigger domain and
accordingly a higher NDV count.
For joining store_sales and item on on ss_item_sk = i_item_sk since both
columns have the same NDV, min and max values we can safely conclude that
selectivity on item will translate to similar selectivity on store_sales.
This is not the case for joining store_sales and date_dim on ss_sold_date_sk =
d_date_sk since the domain of d_date_sk is much bigger than that of
ss_sold_date_sk, differences in domain need to be taken into account when
inferring selectivity onto store_sales.
