+## Remote dynamic filter pushdown
+
+GreptimeDB enables remote dynamic filter pushdown by default for distributed SQL queries.
+It is mainly used by distributed join queries.
+When a join builds a runtime dynamic filter from one side of the join, the Frontend can propagate that filter to Datanodes so scans on the other side may prune data earlier.
+Some other operators, such as TopK (`ORDER BY ... LIMIT`), may also produce dynamic filters in eligible plans.
+
+This is a best-effort performance optimization and does not change query results.
+It only applies when the distributed query plan contains a dynamic filter that can be sent to remote scans.
+If the query plan has no dynamic filter, or if the filter cannot be encoded or applied safely, GreptimeDB runs the query without remote dynamic filter pushdown.
+
+To disable this optimization for one HTTP SQL request, set the `query.enable_remote_dynamic_filter_pushdown` hint to `false`:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST \
+-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
+-H 'x-greptime-hints: query.enable_remote_dynamic_filter_pushdown=false' \
+--data-urlencode "sql=SELECT m.* FROM monitor m JOIN host_info h ON m.host = h.host WHERE h.region = 'us-west'" \
+http://localhost:4000/v1/sql
+```
+
+The option defaults to `true`.
+Setting it to `false` disables Frontend-to-Datanode remote dynamic filter propagation for the current query only.
+It also applies to standalone deployments when the query is executed through the local Frontend-to-Datanode region query path.
+Currently, there is no persistent Frontend or Datanode configuration option for changing this default.
+It does not disable local dynamic filter optimizations inside one execution node.
+
+For more information about request hints, see [HTTP hints](/user-guide/protocols/http.md#hints).

+## 远程动态过滤下推
+
+GreptimeDB 默认会为分布式 SQL 查询启用远程动态过滤下推。
+它主要用于分布式 Join 查询。
+当 Join 的一侧在运行时构建出动态过滤条件时，Frontend 可以将该过滤条件传播到 Datanode，让另一侧的扫描更早地裁剪数据。
+其他一些算子，例如 TopK（`ORDER BY ... LIMIT`），在符合条件的执行计划中也可能产生动态过滤条件。
+
+这是一个尽力而为的性能优化，不会改变查询结果。
+它只会在分布式查询计划中包含可发送到远端扫描的动态过滤条件时生效。
+如果查询计划中没有动态过滤条件，或者该过滤条件无法被安全编码或应用，GreptimeDB 会在没有远程动态过滤下推的情况下执行查询。
+
+要为单个 HTTP SQL 请求关闭该优化，可以将 `query.enable_remote_dynamic_filter_pushdown` hint 设置为 `false`：
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST \
+-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
+-H 'x-greptime-hints: query.enable_remote_dynamic_filter_pushdown=false' \
+--data-urlencode "sql=SELECT m.* FROM monitor m JOIN host_info h ON m.host = h.host WHERE h.region = 'us-west'" \
+http://localhost:4000/v1/sql
+```
+
+该选项默认值为 `true`。
+设置为 `false` 后，只会为当前查询关闭 Frontend 到 Datanode 的远程动态过滤传播。
+当查询通过本地 Frontend 到 Datanode 的 region query 路径执行时，该选项也适用于 standalone 部署。
+当前没有用于修改该默认值的持久化 Frontend 或 Datanode 配置项。
+它不会关闭单个执行节点内部的本地动态过滤优化。
