Enabling efficient OS paging for main-memory OLTP databases

Even though main memory is becoming large enough to fit most OLTP databases, it may not always be the best option. OLTP workloads typically exhibit skewed access patterns where some records are hot (frequently accessed) but many records are cold (infrequen ...

Meet the Walkers: Accelerating Index Traversals for In-Memory Databases

Babak Falsafi, Boris Robert Grot, Javier Picorel Obando, Yusuf Onur Koçberber

The explosive growth in digital data and its growing role in real-time decision support motivate the design of high-performance database management systems (DBMSs). Meanwhile, slowdown in supply voltage scaling has stymied improvements in core performance ...

NoDB: Efficient Query Execution on Raw Data Files

Anastasia Ailamaki, Ioannis Alagiannis, Renata Borovica-Gajic, Miguel Sérgio De Oliveira Branco

As data collections become larger and larger, data loading evolves to a major bottleneck. Many applications already avoid using database systems, e.g., scientific data analysis and social networks, due to the complexity and the increased data-to-query time ...

NoDB in Action: Adaptive Query Processing on Raw Data

Anastasia Ailamaki, Ioannis Alagiannis, Renata Borovica-Gajic, Miguel Sérgio De Oliveira Branco

As data collections become larger and larger, users are faced with increasing bottlenecks in their data analysis. More data means more time to prepare the data, to load the data into the database and to execute the desired queries. Many applications alread ...

Database Queries in Java

Christopher Ming-Yee Iu

In conventional programming languages like Java, the interface for accessing databases is often inelegant. Typically, an entire separate database query language must be embedded inside a conventional programming language for programmers to access the full ...
