Parallel fetching of query result data

Abstract:

Provided herein are systems and methods for query result data processing, including parallel fetching and processing of query result data. A system includes at least one hardware processor coupled to memory and configured to obtain query result information associated with query result data. Multiple result batches are generated based on the query result information. Each result batch of the multiple result batches includes location information and schema information associated with a portion of the query result data. A data processing request corresponding to the result batch is detected. The portion of the query result data associated with the result batch is retrieved in response to the data processing request. The retrieving uses the location information within the result batch. The portion of the query result data is parsed using the schema information, to generate parsed result data.
