sql "IN" in splunk

Hello!
Is it possible to implement anything like SQL "in" clause in splunk?

like this:
select a from A where b in (select b from B)

inner join is not a good way, as I see, when there are several million of rows in A and a couple in B.

any ideas? thank you in advance

Yes. Use subsearches.
