Zikun created SPARK-32947: ----------------------------- Summary: Support top-N sort for Spark SQL window function Key: SPARK-32947 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-32947 Project: Spark Issue Type: Improvement Components: SQL Affects Versions: 3.0.1 Reporter: Zikun
In Spark SQL, there are two types of sort execution, *_SortExec_* and *_TakeOrderedAndProjectExec_* . *_SortExec_* is a general sorting execution and it does not support top-N sort. *_TakeOrderedAndProjectExec_* is the execution for top-N sort in Spark. Spark SQL rank window function needs to sort the data locally and it relies on the execution plan *_SortExec_* to sort the data in each physical data partition. When the filter of the window rank (e.g. rank <= 100) is specified in a user's query, the filter can actually be pushed down to the SortExec and then we let SortExec operates top-N sort. Right now SortExec does not support top-N sort and we need to extend the capability of SortExec to support top-N sort.
