    How do you get the query engine to push down a where clause when view has UNION ALL

    alan_study

      I have the following view

      CREATE VIEW PartMarriage (

          src VARCHAR(6), --This is an inline comment in DDL metadata

          marriageType VARCHAR(6),

          masterSerialNo VARCHAR(20),

          masterSerialNoAbbrev VARCHAR(10),

          dependentSerialNo VARCHAR(20),

          dependentSerialNoAbbrev VARCHAR(10),

          CONSTRAINT PK PRIMARY KEY (src, masterSerialNo, masterSerialNoAbbrev, dependentSerialNo, dependentSerialNoAbbrev) --Every view must define a constraint for primary key to be used with odata, MS Access can not have PK with column > 255

      )

      AS

      select

          src,

          marriageType,

          masterSerialNo,

          masterSerialNoAbbrev,

          dependentSerialNo,

          dependentSerialNoAbbrev

      from PartMarriageHamDsnVdbHam.PartMarriage

      union all

      select  

          src,

          marriageType,

          masterSerialNo,

          masterSerialNoAbbrev,

          dependentSerialNo,

          dependentSerialNoAbbrev

      from PartMarriageDataCollectionVdbAep.PartMarriage

      union all

      select  

          src,

          marriageType,

          masterSerialNo,

          masterSerialNoAbbrev,

          dependentSerialNo,

          dependentSerialNoAbbrev

      from PartMarriageGalcHistVdbHma1.PartMarriage

       

      When I use this view like

      select 

          pm1.src pm1_source

        , pm1.masterSerialNo pm1_target_sn

        , pm1.masterSerialNoAbbrev pm1_target_sn_abbrev

        , pm1.dependentSerialNo pm1_sn

        , pm1.dependentSerialNoAbbrev pm1_sn_abbrev

      from

        PartMarriage.PartMarriage pm1

      where

        pm1.masterSerialNo in

          (

          'L15BE3105823'

          , 'L15BE3105824'

          , 'L15BE3105825'

          )

        and pm1.masterSerialNoAbbrev = 'EIN'

      order by

        pm1.masterSerialNo

        , pm1.dependentSerialNoAbbrev

       

      I was expecting the where clause to get passed down to all of the source models but for some reason it is not.  This results in all records being returned.

       

      Here are some logs

      Is there anything that I could do to make it pass down the where clause to the select statements that are being unioned together in the view?

          UNION all will not prevent pushdown.  More than likely it's an issue with your translator not supporting IN or even equality predicates.  What translator type are you using?

           

          You can get a full understanding of the planning from using a Teiid JDBC connection or by increasing the logging on the server to get debug log - see Diagnosing Issues · GitBook for more on reading query plans.

            This actually shows that the where clause is being pushed down.

            I went back to the logs in more detail and saw that the original query was actually slightly more complex than I originally thought.

            In this case you can see that there is a join to itself 2 times to do some level of recursion.  The problem with this statement is that it never returns so the show plan does not return anything.

            I can see how the join to itself might result in saying it is best to return all results from each source.

            I have not tried to use a WITH statement in teiid to see if recursion is supported across multiple sources.  Maybe that would be a better solution than joining to itself if it is supported.  Or maybe for this use case we will need to write an application instead of trying to do it all in teiid.

              Do you have any costing information on the source tables?  With at least the cardinality the planner would create a plan that would first retrieve PartMarriage.PartMarriage pm1, then use that result to fetch the other PartMarriage references.

               

              Also is this a situation where the join is partitioned - that is can only records in PartMarriageHamDsnVdbHam join with those in PartMarriageHamDsnVdbHam, or will the join span sources?

               

              >  I have not tried to use a WITH statement in teiid to see if recursion is supported across multiple sources.  Maybe that would be a better solution than joining to itself if it is supported.

               

              WITH clauses are eligible to be pushed, but generally if it's cross source, then it will be evaluated in Teiid.  This would ensure however the effective processing that uses the results from the previous iteration to drive the next.
