Teradata Vantage
Incremental Planning and Execution (IPE) is a request processing method designed for complex requests. In IPE, Vantage breaks requests into smaller pieces and then optimizes each piece one at a time. The results from earlier request pieces help Vantage plan how to process later request pieces.
Dynamic Plan
Because Vantage can "learn" from the results of earlier request pieces, an IPE plan is called dynamic.
Static Plan
A static plan optimizes requests as a single unit. A static plan may provide some IPE functionality, but TDWM will work from the static plan.

Vantage applies IPE automatically to qualifying complex requests.

You can use IPE as a classification criterion for workload, filter, and throttle rules. This allows you to identify IPE requests being executed and manage them differently from non-IPE requests. You can use the NumFragments field in DBC.DBQLogTbl to identify IPE requests. NumFragments reports the number of fragments (pieces) for IPE requests. This field is null for non-IPE requests.

Because an IPE dynamic plan gives TASM only a partial view of a request, TASM ignores the following step-level criteria when attempting to classify an IPE request:
  • Step estimated row count (minimum or maximum)
  • Step estimated time (minimum or maximum)
  • Full-table scan
  • Join type
  • IPE request criteria
