             Summary: Optimize lateral view with explode to not read 
unnecessary columns
                 Key: SPARK-6489
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6489
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
            Reporter: Konstantin Shaposhnikov


Currently a query with "lateral view explode(...)" results in an execution plan 
that reads all columns of the underlying RDD.

E.g. given *ppl* table is DF created from Person case class:
{code}
case class Person(val name: String, val age: Int, val data: Array[Int])
{code}
the following SQL:
{code}
select name, sum(d) from ppl lateral view explode(data) d as d group by name
{code}
executes as follows:
{noformat}
== Physical Plan ==
Aggregate false, [name#0], [name#0,SUM(PartialSum#8L) AS _c1#3L]
 Exchange (HashPartitioning [name#0], 200)
  Aggregate true, [name#0], [name#0,SUM(CAST(d#6, LongType)) AS PartialSum#8L]
   Project [name#0,d#6]
    Generate explode(data#2), true, false
     PhysicalRDD [name#0,age#1,data#2], MapPartitionsRDD[1] at mapPartitions at 
ExistingRDD.scala:35
{noformat}

Note that *age* column is not needed to produce the output but it is still read 
from the underlying RDD.

A sample program to demonstrate the issue:
{code}
case class Person(val name: String, val age: Int, val data: Array[Int])

object ExplodeDemo extends App {
  val ppl = Array(
    Person("A", 20, Array(10, 12, 19)),
    Person("B", 25, Array(7, 8, 4)),
    Person("C", 19, Array(12, 4, 232)))
  

  val conf = new SparkConf().setMaster("local[2]").setAppName("sql")
  val sc = new SparkContext(conf)
  val sqlCtx = new HiveContext(sc)
  import sqlCtx.implicits._
  val df = sc.makeRDD(ppl).toDF
  df.registerTempTable("ppl")
  val s = sqlCtx.sql("select name, sum(d) from ppl lateral view explode(data) d 
as d group by name")
  s.explain(true)
}
{code}
