Recently, the Main Memory DBMS is gradually being expanded by the appearance of a large capacity of a Main Memory System, the increase in business area where it requires a real time process, and the rise of the users' required level. The Main Memory DBMS, which is able to go through a large capacity data process of the disk-based DBMS and guarantees a high efficiency, has domestically developed and has been put to a practical use. This paper presents an examination of the applied technologies and the limits of Altibase system, which is Main Memory DBMS. Moreover, it evaluated and performed a comparative analysis on the performance level of the Main Memory DBMS and the disk-based DBMS based on the same application. After five trials of the experiment based on the operating application, it was confirmed that the performance level of the Main Memory DBMS is enhanced and is higher by 4.13 to 7.89 times than the disk-based DBMS.

The main memory DBMS is operated which the contents of the table that resides on a disk at the same time as the drive is in the memory. However, because the main memory DBMS stores the data and transaction log file using the disk file system, there are a limit to the speed at which the CPU accesses the memory. In this paper, I evaluated the performance through analysis of the application side difference the technology that has been implemented in Altibase system of main memory DBMS and Sybase of disk-based DBMS. When the application performance of main memory DBMS is in comparison with the disk-based DBMS, the performance of main memory DBMS was outperformed 1.24~3.36 times in the single soccer game, and was outperformed 1.29~7.9 times in the soccer game / special soccer. The result of sale transaction response time showed a fast response time of 1.78 ~ 6.09 times.

Recently, to efficiently support the real-time requirements of RTLS( Real Time Location System) services, interest in the main memory DBMS is rising. In the main memory DBMS, because all data can be lost when the system failure happens, the recovery method is very important for the stability of the database. Especially, disk I/O in executing the log and the checkpoint becomes the bottleneck of letting down the total system performance. Therefore, it is urgently necessary to research about the recovery method to reduce disk I/O in the main memory DBMS. Therefore, In this paper, we analyzed existing log techniques and check point techniques and existing main memory DBMSs' recovery techniques for recovery techniques research for main memory DBMS.

The main memory DBMS (MMDBMS) efficiently supports various database applications that require high performance since it employs main memory rather than disk as a primary storage. An index manager is an essential sub-component of a DBMS used to speed up the retrieval of objects from a large volume of a database in response to a certain search condition. Previous research efforts on indexing proposed various index structures. However, they hardly dealt with the practical issues occurred in implementing an index manager on a target DBMS. In this paper, we touch these issues and present our experiences in developing the index manager. The main issues are (1) compact representation of an index entry, (2) support of variable-length keys. (3) support of multiple-attribute keys, and (4) support of duplicated keys.

ALTIBASE/sup TM/ is the relational main-memory DBMS in which a main memory is primarily used as the main storage device. We present the database replication strategies and techniques of the ALTIBASETM system in order to meet the requirement of high availability and efficient transaction processing. Our process architecture for replication management and its communication model are proposed, and database replication protocols are also described. We show the experimental result of transaction processing rate with various DBMS parameters and overall performance of database replication system as compared to standalone system.

As semiconductor memory becomes cheaper, the memory capacity of computer system is increasing. Therefore computer system has sufficient memory for a plentiful spatial data. With emerging spatial application required high performance, this paper presents a GIS database system in main memory. Memory residence can provide both functionality and performance for a database management system. This paper describes design of DBMS for storing, querying, managing and analyzing for spatial and non-spatial data in main-memory. This memory resident GIS DBMS supports SQL for spatial query, spatial data model, spatial index and interface for GIS tool or applications.

Recently, to efficiently support the real-time requirements of LBS and Telematics services, interest in the spatial main memory DBMS is rising. In the spatial main memory DBMS, because all spatial data can be lost when the system failure happens, the recovery system is very important for the stability of the database. Especially, disk I/O in executing the log and the checkpoint becomes the bottleneck of letting down the total system performance. Therefore, it is urgently necessary to research about the recovery system to reduce disk I/O in the spatial main memory DBMS. In this paper, we study an efficient recovery system for the spatial main memory DBMS. First, the pre-commit log method is used for the decrement of disk I/O and the improvement of transaction concurrency. In addition, we propose the fuzzy-shadow checkpoint method for the recovery system of the spatial main memory DBMS. This method can solve the problem of duplicated disk I/O on the same page of the existing fuzzy-pingpong checkpoint method for the improvement of the whole system performance. Finally, we also report the experimental results confirming the benefit of the proposed recovery system.

ALTIBASE is the relational main memory DBMS that enables us to develop the high performance and fault tolerant applications. It guarantees the short and predictable execution time as well as the basic functionality of conventional disk-based DBMS. We present the 'overview of system architecture and the performance analysis with respect to the various design choices. The assorted experiments are performed under the various environments. The results of TPC-H and Wisconsin benchmark tests are described. We illustrate the performance comparisons under the various index mechanisms, the replication models, and the transaction durabilities. A performance study shows the ALTIBASE system can be applied to the wide area of industrial DBMS fields.

The main memory DBMS(MMDBMS) efficiently supports various database applications that require high performance since it employs main memory rather than disk as a primary storage. In this paper, we discuss theexperiences obtained in developing the index manager of the Tachyon, a next-generation MMDBMS. The indexmanager is an essential sub-component of the DBMS used to speed up the retrieval of objects from a largevolume of a database in response to a certain search condition. Previous research efforts on indexing proposed various index structures. However, they hardly dealt with the practical issues occured in implementating an index manager on a target DBMS. In this paper, we touch these issues and present our experiences in developing the index manager on the Tachyon as solutions. The main issues touched are (1) compact representation of an indexentry, (2) support of variable-length keys, (3) support of multiple-attribute keys, (4) support of duplicated keys,(5) definition of external APls, (6) concurrency control, and (7) backup and recovery. We believe that ourcontribution would help MMDBMS developers highly reduce their trial-and-errors.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a two-tier DBMS for handling massive data and providing faster response time. In the present day, the main requirements of DBMS are figured out using two aspects. The first is handling large amounts of data. And the second is providing fast response time. But in fact, Traditional DBMS cannot fulfill both the requirements. The disk-oriented DBMS can handle massive data but the response time is relatively slower than the memory-resident DBMS. On the other hand, the memory-resident DBMS can provide fast response time but they have original restrictions of database size. In this paper, to meet the requirements of handling large volumes of data and providing fast response time, a two-tier DBMS is proposed. The cold-data which does not require fast response times are managed by disk storage manager, and the hot-data which require fast response time among the large volumes of data are handled by memory storage manager as snapshots. As a result, the proposed system performs significantly better than disk-oriented DBMS with an added advantage to manage massive data at the same time.
