Nowadays almost every major company has a monitoring system and produces log data to analyse their systems. To perform analysation on the log data and to extract experience for future decisions it is important to transform and synchronize different time series. For synchronizing multiple time series several methods are provided so that they are leading to a synchronized uniform time series. This is achieved by using discretisation and approximation methodics. Furthermore the discretisation through ticks is demonstrated, as well as the respectivly illustrated results.
Rapidly growing data volumes push today's analytical systems close to the feasible processing limit. Massive parallelism is one possible solution to reduce the computational time of analytical algorithms. However, data transfer becomes a significant bottleneck since it blocks system resources moving data-to-code. Technological advances allow to economically place compute units close to storage and perform data processing operations close to data, minimizing data transfers and increasing scalability. Hence the principle of Near Data Processing (NDP) and the shift towards code-to-data. In the present paper we claim that the development of NDP-system architectures becomes an inevitable task in the future. Analytical DBMS like HPE Vertica have multiple points of impact with major advantages which are presented within this paper.
The amount of image data has been rising exponentially over the last decades due to numerous trends like social networks, smartphones, automotive, biology, medicine and robotics. Traditionally, file systems are used as storage. Although they are easy to use and can handle large data volumes, they are suboptimal for efficient sequential image processing due to the limitation of data organisation on single images. Database systems and especially column-stores support more stuctured storage and access methods on the raw data level for entiere series.
In this paper we propose definitions of various layouts for an efficient storage of raw image data and metadata in a column store. These schemes are designed to improve the runtime behaviour of image processing operations. We present a tool called column-store Image Processing Toolbox (cIPT) allowing to easily combine the data layouts and operations for different image processing scenarios.
The experimental evaluation of a classification task on a real world image dataset indicates a performance increase of up to 15x on a column store compared to a traditional row-store (PostgreSQL) while the space consumption is reduced 7x. With these results cIPT provides the basis for a future mature database feature.
In this paper we present our work in progress on revisiting traditional DBMS mechanisms to manage space on native Flash and how it is administered by the DBA. Our observations and initial results show that: the standard logical database structures can be used for physical organization of data on native Flash; at the same time higher DBMS performance is achieved without incurring extra DBA overhead. Initial experimental evaluation indicates a 20% increase in transactional throughput under TPC-C, by performing intelligent data placement on Flash, less erase operations and thus better Flash longevity.
