The future of scientific data bases

2012

Abstract

For many decades, users in scientific fields (domain scientists) have resorted to either home-grown tools or legacy software for the management of their data. Technological advancements nowadays necessitate many of the properties such as data independence, scalability, and functionality found in the roadmap of DBMS technology, DBMS products, however, are not yet ready to address scientific application and user needs. Recent efforts toward building a science DBMS indicate that there is a long way ahead of us, paved by a research agenda that is rich in interesting and challenging problems. © 2012 IEEE.

Data

In common usage and statistics, data (USˈdætə; UKˈdeɪtə) is a collection of discrete or continuous values that convey information, describing the quantity, quality, fact, statistics, other basic units of meaning, or simply sequences of symbols that may be further interpreted formally. A datum is an individual value in a collection of data. Data is usually organized into structures such as tables that provide additional context and meaning, and which may themselves be used as data in larger structures.

Database

In computing, a database is an organized collection of data (also known as a data store) stored and accessed electronically through the use of a database management system. Small databases can be stored on a , while large databases are hosted on computer clusters or cloud storage. The design of databases spans formal techniques and practical considerations, including data modeling, efficient data representation and storage, query languages, security and privacy of sensitive data, and distributed computing issues, including supporting concurrent access and fault tolerance.

Object–relational database

An object–relational database (ORD), or object–relational database management system (ORDBMS), is a database management system (DBMS) similar to a relational database, but with an object-oriented database model: objects, classes and inheritance are directly supported in database schemas and in the query language. In addition, just as with pure relational systems, it supports extension of the data model with custom data types and methods. An object–relational database can be said to provide a middle ground between relational databases and object-oriented databases.
