Michael Armbrust updated SPARK-8682:
------------------------------------
Target Version/s: 1.6.0 (was: 1.5.0)
> Range Join for Spark SQL
> ------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-8682
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8682
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL
> Reporter: Herman van Hovell
> Attachments: perf_testing.scala
>
>
> Currently Spark SQL uses a Broadcast Nested Loop join (or a filtered
> Cartesian Join) when it has to execute the following range query:
> {noformat}
> SELECT A.*,
> B.*
> FROM tableA A
> JOIN tableB B
> ON A.start <= B.end
> AND A.end > B.start
> {noformat}
> This is horribly inefficient. The performance of this query can be greatly
> improved, when one of the tables can be broadcasted, by creating a range
> index. A range index is basically a sorted map containing the rows of the
> smaller table, indexed by both the high and low keys. using this structure
> the complexity of the query would go from O(N * M) to O(N * 2 * LOG(M)), N =
> number of records in the larger table, M = number of records in the smaller
> (indexed) table.
> I have created a pull request for this. According to the [Spark SQL:
> Relational Data Processing in
> Spark|http://people.csail.mit.edu/matei/papers/2015/sigmod_spark_sql.pdf]
> paper similar work (page 11, section 7.2) has already been done by the ADAM
> project (cannot locate the code though).
> Any comments and/or feedback are greatly appreciated.
