Split Query Processing in Polybase
Summary: Polybase uses split query processing to push SQL operators on HDFS data into MapReduce jobs on Hadoop via PDW optimizer. A cost-based planner weighs selectivity, sizes, and co-location to decide pushdown; SQL–Java semantics must be reconciled. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
