Managing Large Volumes of Data
•Partitioning and
parallelism are crucial for VLDB
•Parallelism for all
operations
–DBA operations: loading, index-creation,
table-creation, data-modification, backup and recovery
–End-user operations: Queries
–Unbounded scalability: Real Application Clusters
•Partitioning provides ‘incremental’ operations for:
–Data loading
–Indexing
–Referential Integrity
–Backup and recovery
