Generating Power-Efficient Query Execution Plan

Xiaowei Liu, Jinbao Wang, Haijie Wang, Hong Ming Gao · 2013

As more and more power is consumed in servers, growing attention has been paid to power management.However, little work has been dated on the power-efficiency of query execution plans generated by the DBMS.Traditional optimal query execution plan does not take power-efficiency into account.This paper tries to generate a power-efficient query execution plan by redesigning the query optimizer of the database.We build a power model to estimate the power consumption of a query execution plan and propose an algorithm to generate the power-efficient query execution plan.Using two experiments based on the TPC-H benchmark, we evaluate the accuracy of our power model and compare the power-efficient query execution plan with the traditional optimal query execution plan.
