Abstract
A processor may receive a query from a user. The query may include one or more portions. The processor may identify a primary function. The processor may determine to segment the primary function into two or more subsidiary functions. The processor may process a first portion of the query with a first subsidiary function. The processor may display a processed outcome of the query to the user.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, from a user, a query, wherein the query includes one or more portions;
- identifying, by a processor, a primary function, wherein the primary function is identified with a metadata tag indicating an association between the query and the primary function;
- segmenting the primary function into two or more subsidiary functions, wherein the two or more subsidiary functions use at least two different programming languages, selected by the processor, based on the processor determining the selected language allows for the query to be more efficiently processed;
- processing a first portion of the query with a first subsidiary function;
- and
- displaying a processed outcome of the query to the user.
A system comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor in communication with the memory, the processor being configured to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, from a user, a query, wherein the query includes one or more portions;
- identifying, by a processor, a primary function, wherein the primary function is identified with a metadata tag indicating an association between the query and the primary function;
- segmenting the primary function into two or more subsidiary functions, wherein the two or more subsidiary functions use at least two different programming languages, selected by the processor, based on the processor determining the selected language allows for the query to be more efficiently processed;
- processing a first portion of the query with a first subsidiary function;
- and
- displaying a processed outcome of the query to the user.
A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform a method, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a user, a query, wherein the query includes one or more portions;
- identifying, by a processor, a primary function, wherein the primary function is identified with a metadata tag indicating an association between the query and the primary function;
- segmenting the primary function into two or more subsidiary functions, wherein the two or more subsidiary functions use at least two different programming languages, selected by the processor, based on the processor determining the selected language allows for the query to be more efficiently processed;
- processing a first portion of the query with a first subsidiary function;
- and
- displaying a processed outcome of the query to the user.
