Hi,

I am a newbie to derby and I would like to try out improve performances of aggregate functions (SELECT, COUNT, SUM etc).

Initially I have look into research papers [01][02], but found out that these algorithms can not be implemented in derby since it doesn't provide support for "spatial data".

Then I thought of using histogram stats and trying out for improving usage and structure of histogram stats to increase performances of aggregate query calls.

I have accessed Derby and get it compiled in Eclipse. I have no idea where to begin, which package/classes/code to be accessed, and implemented.

It would be a great help, if someone can help me with getting started. Also please do suggest if there are any alternate routes to achieve the goal.

Hi Ayesha,

You may find that you can get a long way in your research by implementing your own user-defined aggregates. For more information on user-defined aggregates, please see http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.10/devguide/cdevspecialuda.html

Hope this helps,
