The growth in grid databases, coupled with the utility of
parallel query processing, presents an important opportunity to
understand and utilize high-performance parallel database
processing within a major database management system (DBMS). This
important new book provides readers with a fundamental
understanding of parallelism in data-intensive applications, and
demonstrates how to develop faster capabilities to support them. It
presents a balanced treatment of the theoretical and practical
aspects of high-performance databases to demonstrate how parallel
query is executed in a DBMS, including concepts, algorithms,
analytical models, and grid transactions.
High-Performance Parallel Database Processing and Grid
Databases serves as a valuable resource for researchers working
in parallel databases and for practitioners interested in building
a high-performance database. It is also a much-needed,
self-contained textbook for database courses at the advanced
undergraduate and graduate levels.
