Explain Plan (Multi-Stage)

This document describes EXPLAIN PLAN syntax for multi-stage engine (v2)

PreviousExplain Plan (Single-Stage)NextFiltering with IdSet

Was this helpful?

In , we do not differentiate any logical/physical plan b/c the structure of the query is fixed. By default it explain the Physical Plan

In multi-stage engine we support EXPLAIN PLAN syntax mostly following Apache Calcite's syntax. Here are several examples:

Explain Logical Plan

Using SSB standard query example:

EXPLAIN PLAN FOR 
select 
  P_BRAND1, sum(LO_REVENUE) 
from ssb_lineorder_1, ssb_part_1
where LO_PARTKEY = P_PARTKEY 
  and P_CATEGORY = 'MFGR#12' 
group by P_BRAND1

The result field contains 2 columns and 1 row:

+-----------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------|

noted that all the normal options for EXPLAIN PLAN in Apache Calcite also works in Pinot with extra information including attributes, type, etc.

Explain Implementation (Pyhsical) Plan

If we want to gather the implementation plan specific to Pinot internal multi-stage engine operator chain. You can use the EXPLAIN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN :
