Modern mixed (HTAP)workloads execute fast update-transactions and long running analytical queries on the same dataset and system. In multi-version (MVCC) systems, such workloads result in many short-lived versions and long version-chains as well as in increased and frequent maintenance overhead.
Consequently, the index pressure increases significantly. Firstly, the frequent modifications cause frequent creation of new versions, yielding a surge in index maintenance overhead. Secondly and more importantly, index-scans incur extra I/O overhead to determine, which of the resulting tuple versions are visible to the executing transaction (visibility-check) as current designs only store version/timestamp information in the base table – not in the index. Such index-only visibility-check is critical for HTAP workloads on large datasets.
In this paper we propose the Multi Version Partitioned B-Tree (MV-PBT) as a version-aware index structure, supporting index-only visibility checks and flash-friendly I/O patterns. The experimental evaluation indicates a 2x improvement for analytical queries and 15% higher transactional throughput under HTAP workloads. MV-PBT offers 40% higher tx. throughput compared to WiredTiger’s LSM-Tree implementation under YCSB.
We introduce bloomRF as a unified method for approximate membership testing that supports both point- and range-queries. As a first core idea, bloomRF introduces novel prefix hashing to efficiently encode range information in the hash-code of the key itself. As a second key concept, bloomRF proposes novel piecewisemonotone hash-functions that preserve local order and support fast range-lookups with fewer memory accesses. bloomRF has near-optimal space complexity and constant query complexity. Although, bloomRF is designed for integer domains, it supports floating-points, and can serve as a multi-attribute filter. The evaluation in RocksDB and in a standalone library shows that it is more efficient and outperforms existing point-range-filters by up to 4× across a range of settings and distributions, while keeping the false-positive rate low.
Even though near-data processing (NDP) can provably reduce data transfers and increase performance, current NDP is solely utilized in read-only settings. Slow or tedious to implement synchronization and invalidation mechanisms between host and smart storage make NDP support for data-intensive update operations difficult. In this paper, we introduce a low-latency cache-coherent shared lock table for update NDP settings in disaggregated memory environments. It utilizes the novel CCIX interconnect technology and is integrated in neoDBMS, a near-data processing DBMS for smart storage. Our evaluation indicates end-to-end lock latencies of ∼80-100ns and robust performance under contention.
