Abstract

We consider the problem of querying key-value stores in the presence of semantic constraints, expressed as rules on keys, whose purpose is to establish a high-level view over a collection of legacy databases. We focus on the rewriting-based approach for data access, which is the most suitable for the key-value store setting because of the limited expressivity of the data model employed by such systems. Our main contribution is a parallel technique for rewriting and evaluating tree-shaped queries under constraints which is able to speed up query answering. We implemented and evaluated our parallel technique. Results show significant performance gains compared to the baseline sequential approach.
