Hi Team, In addition to the below mail I have another finding. Please consider below scenarios. The first 2 scenarios are giving expected results in terms of performance. But we are not getting expected performance for 3rd scenario which is UNION ALL with 2 different types of datasets.
*Scenario 1- Parquet UNION ALL Parquet* Individual execution time of 1st query - 5 secs Individual execution time of 2nd query - 5 secs UNION ALL of both queries execution time - 10 secs *Scenario 2 - DB query UNION ALL DB* *query* Individual execution time of 1st query - 5 secs Individual execution time of 2nd query - 5 secs UNION ALL of both queries execution time - 10 secs *Scenario 3 - Parquet UNION ALL DB query* Individual execution time of 1st query - 5 secs Individual execution time of 2nd query - 1 sec UNION ALL execution time - 20 secs Ideally the execution time should not be more than 6 secs. May I request you to check whether the UNION ALL performance of 3rd scenario is expected with different dataset types. Please suggest if there is any specific way to bring down the execution time of 3rd scenario. Thanks in advance.
