Examples disclosed herein relate to accessing electronic databases. Some examples disclosed herein may include partitioning a computation task into subtasks. A processing node of a computation engine may generate a database query for retrieving an electronic data segment associated with at least one of the subtasks from a database. The database query may include pre-processing instructions for a database management system (DBMS) associated with the database to pre-process the electronic data segment before providing the electronic data segment to the processing node. The pre-processing instructions may include at least one of: filtering, projection, join, aggregation, count, and user-defined instructions. The generated query may be provided to the DBMS.
