Abstract
A database system searches for any statements that satisfy one or more of a set of filtering criteria. When a given dynamic query statement fully satisfies the set of filtering criteria, the given statement is stabilized by persistently storing a bound form of the given dynamic query statement. When the given dynamic query statement partly satisfies the set of filtering criteria, a monitoring request is created with the set of filtering criteria to begin monitoring subsequent executions of the statement, and the statement is linked to the monitoring request. When the given dynamic query statement subsequently fully satisfies the set of filtering criteria, the statement is stabilized by persistently storing the bound form of the statement. When the given dynamic query is re-executed, the stabilized statement is loaded, and the PREPARE process is bypassed.
Description
BACKGROUND

Dynamic SQL statements allows one to build Structured Query Language (SQL) statements dynamically at runtime. Unlike static SQL statements, the full text of the dynamic SQL statement is not known at the application's bind time. In an ad hoc query environment, performance of dynamic SQL statements is an important priority. To optimize dynamic SQL statement's performance, the prepared or bound form of the SQL statement is often saved in the in-memory global dynamic statement cache. Then, for the next request to prepare the dynamic SQL statement for execution, a copy of the bound form of the SQL statement from the cache may be used. However, the storage of the bound form of the dynamic SQL statement in the in-memory cache is not persistent and only provide stabilization for dynamic queries over an instance of a database system. Further, stabilization is not realized across different version of the database system. Once the bound form of the SQL statement is deleted from the cache, the dynamic SQL statement must be prepared again. Even when the access plan for the dynamic SQL statement is persistently stored and reused, there is no guarantee that the same bound form will result when the prepare process is repeated using the stored access plan.


SUMMARY

Disclosed herein is a method for monitoring dynamic query statements for automatic stabilization and a computer program product as specified in the independent claims. Embodiments of the present invention are given in the dependent claims. Embodiments of the present invention can be freely combined with each other if they are not mutually exclusive.


According to an embodiment of the present invention, in a method for monitoring dynamic query statements in a database system, a database system searches for any dynamic query statements that satisfy one or more of a set of filtering criteria. When a given dynamic query statement fully satisfies the set of filtering criteria, the given dynamic query statement is stabilized by persistently storing a bound form of the given dynamic query statement. When the given dynamic query statement partly satisfies the set of filtering criteria, a monitoring request is created with the set of filtering criteria to begin monitoring subsequent executions of the given dynamic query statement, and the given dynamic query statement is linked to the monitoring request. When the given dynamic query statement subsequently fully satisfies the set of filtering criteria, stabilizing the given dynamic query statement by persistently storing the bound form of the given dynamic query statement. When the given dynamic query is re-executed, the stabilized statement is loaded and the PREPARE process is bypassed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Embodiments of the present invention monitor dynamic query statements as they are executed in a database system for automatic stabilization. Stabilization involves storing the bound forms of the dynamic query statements, with access path information and its corresponding object and authorization dependency information in the database system, into a persistent repository, such as a catalog table. The bound form contains the compiled runtime structures of the dynamic query statement, including the binding of program variables to the parameter placeholders or marks in the statement. Then, when the same dynamic query statement is re-executed, and the bound form of the statement does not exist in an in-memory dynamic statement cache, the same bound form of the statement stored in the persistent repository can be reused, which would result in the same behavior and response time.



FIG. 1 illustrates a database system in which the execution of dynamic query statements are monitored according to embodiments of the present invention. The database system 101 is implemented by one or more specifically programmed computer system, illustrated in FIG. 4 (described further below). The database system 101 includes a query processing component 103, an in-memory dynamic statement cache 105 (“cache”), and a query execution component 106. The database system 101 includes or has access to a persistent repository 108 and one or more databases 109. The query processing component 103 receives dynamic query statements from a user 102 and prepares the dynamic query statements for execution. The query processing component 103 further monitors the execution of dynamic query statements in the database system 101. The cache 105 non-persistently stores bound forms of dynamic query statements, and the query execution component 106 executes the dynamic query statements using the bound forms. The persistent repository 108 persistently stores bound forms of dynamic query statements, across different instances of the database system 101, and the database(s) 109 store data on which the statements are executed. The illustrated components of the database system 101 further function as described below.


The cache 105 further stores dependency information used to prepare the dynamic query statements, such as table, view, routine, sequence, authorization identities, etc. Also stored in the cache 105 are execution statistics of each cached dynamic query statement, such as number of executions, central processing unit (CPU) consumption time, elapsed time, suspend time and other consumed resources. The execution statistics are updated on subsequent executions of the dynamic query statements in the cache 105. The database system 101 further stores in the cache 105 attributes which were used to prepare the dynamic query statements, such as the object's schema, special registers (e.g. routine paths, locale, rounding mode), and client information for queries that originated from a remote client system.



FIG. 2 illustrates a method for monitoring dynamic query statements in a database system according to embodiments of the present invention. The query processing component 103 receives a command to start stabilization of dynamic query statements in the database system 101, where the command comprises a set of filtering criteria (201). Any combination of the dependency information, execution statistics, and attributes stored in the cache 105 may be used as a filtering criteria. In response to the command, the query processing component 103 searches the cache 105 for any dynamic query statements that satisfy one or more of the filtering criteria (202). When a given dynamic query statement in the cache 105 fully satisfies the filtering criteria, i.e., satisfies each of the set of filtering criteria, the query processing component 103 stabilizes the given dynamic query statement by persistently storing the bound form of the given dynamic query statement (203). When a given dynamic query statement in the cache 105 partly satisfies the filtering criteria, i.e., satisfies at least one of the set of filtering criteria but not all of the set of the filtering criteria, the query processing component 103 does not stabilize the given dynamic query statement. Instead, the query processing component 103 creates a monitoring request, comprising the set of filtering criteria, to begin the monitoring of subsequent executions of the given dynamic query statement and links the given dynamic query statement to the monitoring request (204). When the query processing component 103 determines that the given dynamic query statement subsequently fully satisfies the filtering criteria, the query processing component 103 stabilizes the given dynamic query statement by persistently storing the bound form of the given dynamic query statement (205). In this illustrative embodiment, stabilization involves the storing of the compiled runtime structures of the given dynamic query statement in the persistent repository 108. When the given dynamic query statement is subsequently input for execution, the persistently stored bound form of the given dynamic query statement is retrieved and inserted into the cache 105 (206), bypassing the prepare process. The dynamic query statement is then executed using the bound form inserted into the cache 105.



FIG. 3 illustrates in more detail a method for monitoring dynamic query statement in a database system according to embodiments of the present invention. When a dynamic query statement is input (301), the query processing component 103 searches the cache 105 to determine whether a bound form of the statement exists in the cache 105 (302). When the bound form of the dynamic query statement exists in the cache 105, the query execution component 106 retrieves the bound form of the dynamic query statement from the cache 105 (303), runs the query using the bound form, and returns the results (308). When the bound form of the dynamic query statement does not exist in the cache 105, i.e., a cache miss, the query processing component 103 searches the persistent repository 108 to determine whether the bound form of the dynamic query statement exists in the persistent repository 108 (304). When the bound form of the dynamic query statement also does not exists in the persistent repository 108, the query processing component 103 prepares the statement (306), including creating the bound form of the statement, and stores the bound form in the cache 105 (307). The query execution component 106 retrieves the bound form of the dynamic query statement from the cache 105 (303), runs the query using the bound form, and returns the results (308). When the bound form of the dynamic query statement does not exist in the cache 105 but exists in the persistent repository 108 (304), the query processing component 103 retrieves the bound form of the dynamic query statement from the persistent repository 108 (305) and stores the bound form of the dynamic query statement in the cache 105 (307). The query execution component 106 retrieves the bound form from the cache 105 (303), runs the query using the bound form, and returns the results (308).


At any point in time, the database system 101 may receive a stabilize command with a set of filtering criteria to initiate the monitoring process (320). In response to the command, the query processing component 103 creates a monitoring request (321) and searches the cache 105 for dynamic query statements matching one or more of the set of filtering criteria (322). For each dynamic query statement found, when the dynamic query statement satisfies all of the set of filtering criteria (323), the bound form of the dynamic query statement is stored in the persistent repository (324). When the dynamic query statement does not satisfy all of the set of filtering criteria, the query processing component 103 does not persistently store the found form and links the dynamic query statement with the monitoring request, if a link doesn't already exist (325). Based on the monitoring request, the query processing component 103 continuously searches the cache 105 for new and existing dynamic query statements that match one or more of the set of filtering criteria in the stabilize command (322), and the remainder of the process (323-325) are repeated. When a new dynamic query statement is input and prepared for execution (306), the query processing component 103 may also check the dynamic query statement against existing monitoring requests by performing the monitoring process (322-325). With continuous monitoring, statements executed subsequent to the issuance of the monitoring request are stabilized as they satisfy all of the set of filtering criteria. The query processing component 03 may manage multiple stabilize commands simultaneously, with newly inputted statements being checked against these plurality of monitoring requests.


In the illustrated embodiments, instead of storing the precompiled access path selected for the dynamic query statement, the present invention stores the compiled runtime structures or bound form of the dynamic query statement. The bound form stored in the persistent repository 108 can be retrieved and inserted into the cache 105, bypassing the prepare process. This avoids the cost of re-compiling the access path to recreate the bound form of the dynamic query statement.


For example, assume that there exists two applications, Application A and Application B, with the following dynamic SQL statements:

  • Application A: SELECT * FROM SCHEMA1.T1 and
    • INSERT INTO SCHEMA1.T1 SELECT FROM SCHEMA2.T2
  • Application B: UPDATE SCHEMA2.T2 SET C1 −1 WHERE C2=‘ABC’ and
    • DELETE FROM SCHEMA2.T2 WHERE C2=‘ABC’


      Assume also that Applications A and B are executed in the database system 101 twice, and the bound forms of the above statements are inserted into the cache 105. Each of the above statements thus has a number of executions of 2.


      Assume further that the following first stabilize command is issued to start the stabilization for dynamic query statement with monitoring capability (320):
  • START DYNQUERYCAPTURE GROUP (GRPA) SCHEMA(SCHEMA1) THRESHOLD (2)
  • MONITOR (YES)


    The first stabilize command includes two example filtering criteria, schema name ‘SCHEMA1’ and an execution threshold of 2. In response to this first stabilize command, the query processing component 103 creates a first monitoring request for schema SCHEMA1 and execution threshold 2 (321), searches the cache 105 (322) and finds that the SELECT and INSERT statements both satisfy all of the set of filtering criteria from Application A because they reference objects with schema name ‘SCHEMA1’ and have reached execution threshold of 2 (323). The query processing component 103 stabilizes or stores the bound forms of the SELECT and INSERT statements in the persistent repository 108 (324).


The following database command may then be issued to display pending monitoring requests:

  • DISPLAY DYNQUERYCAPTURE CNO(*)


    In response, the database system 101 outputs the following example messages, showing that two statements have been stabilized based on the monitoring request:














*** BEGIN DISPLAY DYNAMIC QUERY CAPTURE CNO (*)










CNO
: 1



STBLGRP
: GRPA



SCHEMA
: SCHEMA1



THRESHOLD
: 2



STABILIZED
: 2







*** END DISPLAY DYNAMIC QUERY CAPTURE









Assume that the following second stabilize command is also issued to start stabilization with monitoring capability (320):

  • START DYNQUERYCAPTURE GROUP(GRPB) SCHEMA(SCHEMA2) THRESHOLD(10)
  • MONITOR (YES)


    The query processing component 103 creates a second monitoring request schema SCHEMA2 and execution threshold of 10 as filtering criteria (321), searches the cache 105 (322), finds that the UPDATE and DELETE statements from Application B satisfy the schema criteria but do not satisfy the threshold criteria (323). The query processing component 103 does not stabilize either statement. The query processing component 103 links the two statements to the second monitoring request (325).


    The following database command may then be issued to display pending monitoring requests:
  • DISPLAY DYNQUERYCAPTURE CNO(*)


    In response, the database system 101 outputs the following example output messages, showing that two statements have been stabilized based on the first monitoring request and none have yet been stabilized based on the second monitoring request:














*** BEGIN DISPLAY DYNAMIC QUERY CAPTURE CNO (*)










CNO
: 1



STBLGRP
: GRPA



SCHEMA
: SCHEMA1



THRESHOLD
: 2



STABILIZED
: 2



CNO
: 2



STBLGRP
: GRPB



SQLID
: SCHEMA2



THRESHOLD
: 10



STABILIZED
: 0







*** END DISPLAY DYNAMIC QUERY CAPTURE









Assume that Application B is running again and its UPDATE statement is executed 8 more times. When searching the cache 105 (322), the query processing component 103 finds that the UPDATE statement fully satisfies the filtering criteria of the second monitoring request since the number of executions is now 10 (323). The query processing component 103 then stores the bound form of the UPDATE statement in the persistent repository 108 (324).


The following database command may then be issued to display pending monitoring requests:

  • DIS DYNQUERYCAPTURE CNO(*)


    In response, the database system 101 outputs the following example messages, showing that two statements have been stabilized based on the first monitoring request, and one statement has been stabilized based on the second monitoring request:














*** BEGIN DISPLAY DYNAMIC QUERY CAPTURE CNO (*)










CNO
: 1



STARTMMID
: 1



STBLGRP
: GRPA



SCHEMA
: SCHEMA1



THRESHOLD
: 2



STABILIZED
: 2



CNO
: 2



STARTMMID
: 1



STBLGRP
: GRPB



SQLID
: SCHEMA2



THRESHOLD
: 10



STABILIZED
: 1







*** END









To stop a pending monitoring request, a STOP DYNQUERYCAPTURE command may be issued. For example, assume that a STOP DYNQUERYCAPTURE command is issued for the second monitoring command. In response, the monitoring request for SCHEMA2 is deleted and the link from Application B's DELETE statement is also broken. The DELETE statement can be subsequently executed but it will not be stabilized.


Assume further that a new Application C executes the following dynamic SQL statement twice:

  • INSERT INTO SCHEMA1.T1 SELECT * FROM SCHEMA1.T2.


    As this new statement is prepared and its bound form inserted into the cache 105 (306-307), a check is made against the monitoring requests, and a link is established with the monitoring request for which the new statement satisfies one or more of the filtering criteria (323-325). When the execution threshold of 2 is reached, the query processing component 103 will automatically stabilize this statement. The following example output displays the updated progress in the monitoring requests:














*** BEGIN DISPLAY DYNAMIC QUERY CAPTURE CNO (*)










CNO
: 1



STBLGRP
: GRPA



SCHEMA
: SCHEMA1



THRESHOLD
: 2



STABILIZED
: 3







*** END DISPLAY DYNAMIC QUERY CAPTURE









In an illustrative embodiment, the stabilization command has an effect on all data sharing members in the same group. All members of the same group shares the same persistent repository 108. Thus, when users issue the same stabilization command on different members of the same data sharing group, the stabilization commands are serialized among the members such that only one copy of the bound form of a statement is stored in the persistent repository 108.


Further, in an illustrative embodiment, when an object referenced by a statement depends is dropped or altered, any bound form of the statement stored in the persistent repository 108, as well as the cache 105, must be invalidated in order to avoid concurrency issues.

A system, comprising: a processor; anda computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by the processor to cause the processor to: search for any dynamic query statements that satisfy one or more of a set of filtering criteria;when a given dynamic query statement fully satisfies the set of filtering criteria: stabilize the given dynamic query statement by persistently storing a bound form of the given dynamic query statement;when the given dynamic query statement partly satisfies the set of filtering criteria: create a monitoring request comprising the set of filtering criteria to begin monitoring subsequent executions of the given dynamic query statement;link the given dynamic query statement to the monitoring request; andwhen the given dynamic query statement subsequently fully satisfies the set of filtering criteria, stabilize the given dynamic query statement by persistently storing the bound form of the given dynamic query statement; andwhen the given dynamic query statement fully satisfies the set of filtering criteria: receive a subsequent input of the given dynamic query statement for execution;retrieve the persistently stored bound form of the given dynamic query statement; andinsert the bound form of the given dynamic query statement into an in-memory dynamic statement cache, wherein a PREPARE process is bypassed.
  • 14. The system of claim 13, wherein when the given dynamic query statement partly satisfies the set of filtering, the processor is further caused to: execute a subsequent input of the given dynamic query statement;determine whether the given dynamic query statement satisfies all of the set of filtering criteria;when the given dynamic query statement satisfies all of the set of filtering criteria, stabilize the given dynamic query statement by persistently storing the bound form of the given dynamic query statement; andwhen the given dynamic query statement does not satisfy all of the set of filtering criteria, not stabilize the given dynamic query statement.
  • 15. The system of claim 13, wherein the processor is further caused to: receive an input of a new dynamic query statement;determine that a bound form of the new dynamic query statement does not exist in an in-memory dynamic statement cache and exists in a persistent repository;in response, retrieve the bound form of the new dynamic query statement from the persistent repository; andstore the bound form of the new dynamic query statement in the in-memory dynamic statement cache.
  • 16. The system of claim 13, wherein the processor is further caused to: receive an input of a new dynamic query statement;determine that a bound form of the new dynamic query statement does not exist in an in-memory dynamic statement cache and does not exist in a persistent repository;in response, prepare the new dynamic query statement for execution, comprising creating the bound form of the new dynamic query statement; andstore the bound form of the new dynamic query statement in the in-memory dynamic statement cache.
  • 17. The system of claim 16, wherein the processor is further caused to: determine that the new dynamic query statement satisfies one or more of the set of filtering criteria of the monitoring request;when the new dynamic query statement satisfies all of the set of filtering criteria of the monitoring request, store the bound form of the new dynamic query statement in the persistent repository;when the new dynamic query statement does not satisfy all of the set of filtering criteria of the monitoring request, not store the bound form of the new dynamic query statement in the persistent repository; andlink the new dynamic query statement to the monitoring request.
