  • Not ACID, Not BASE, but SALT a Transaction Processing Perspective on Blockchains
    Not ACID, not BASE, but SALT A Transaction Processing Perspective on Blockchains Stefan Tai, Jacob Eberhardt and Markus Klems Information Systems Engineering, Technische Universitat¨ Berlin fst, je, [email protected] Keywords: SALT, blockchain, decentralized, ACID, BASE, transaction processing Abstract: Traditional ACID transactions, typically supported by relational database management systems, emphasize database consistency. BASE provides a model that trades some consistency for availability, and is typically favored by cloud systems and NoSQL data stores. With the increasing popularity of blockchain technology, another alternative to both ACID and BASE is introduced: SALT. In this keynote paper, we present SALT as a model to explain blockchains and their use in application architecture. We take both, a transaction and a transaction processing systems perspective on the SALT model. From a transactions perspective, SALT is about Sequential, Agreed-on, Ledgered, and Tamper-resistant transaction processing. From a systems perspec- tive, SALT is about decentralized transaction processing systems being Symmetric, Admin-free, Ledgered and Time-consensual. We discuss the importance of these dual perspectives, both, when comparing SALT with ACID and BASE, and when engineering blockchain-based applications. We expect the next-generation of decentralized transactional applications to leverage combinations of all three transaction models. 1 INTRODUCTION against. Using the admittedly contrived acronym of SALT, we characterize blockchain-based transactions There is a common belief that blockchains have the – from a transactions perspective – as Sequential, potential to fundamentally disrupt entire industries.

  • The Relational Data Model and Relational Database Constraints
    chapter 33 The Relational Data Model and Relational Database Constraints his chapter opens Part 2 of the book, which covers Trelational databases. The relational data model was first introduced by Ted Codd of IBM Research in 1970 in a classic paper (Codd 1970), and it attracted immediate attention due to its simplicity and mathematical foundation. The model uses the concept of a mathematical relation—which looks somewhat like a table of values—as its basic building block, and has its theoretical basis in set theory and first-order predicate logic. In this chapter we discuss the basic characteristics of the model and its constraints. The first commercial implementations of the relational model became available in the early 1980s, such as the SQL/DS system on the MVS operating system by IBM and the Oracle DBMS. Since then, the model has been implemented in a large num- ber of commercial systems. Current popular relational DBMSs (RDBMSs) include DB2 and Informix Dynamic Server (from IBM), Oracle and Rdb (from Oracle), Sybase DBMS (from Sybase) and SQLServer and Access (from Microsoft). In addi- tion, several open source systems, such as MySQL and PostgreSQL, are available. Because of the importance of the relational model, all of Part 2 is devoted to this model and some of the languages associated with it. In Chapters 4 and 5, we describe the SQL query language, which is the standard for commercial relational DBMSs. Chapter 6 covers the operations of the relational algebra and introduces the relational calculus—these are two formal languages associated with the relational model.

Various kinds of databases exist, each adhering to a different conceptual model. SQL was originally developed to operate on data in databases that follow the relational model. Recently, the international SQL standard has incorporated part of the object model, resulting in hybrid structures called object-relational databases. In this chapter, I discuss data storage, devote a section to how the relational model compares with other major models, and provide a look at the important features of relational databases. Before I talk about SQL, however, I need to nail down what I mean by the term database. Its meaning has changed as computers have changed the way people record and maintain information. COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL Keeping Track of Things Today, people use computers to perform many tasks formerly done with other tools. Computers have replaced typewriters for creating and modifying documents. They’ve surpassed electromechanical calculators as the best way to do math. They’ve also replaced millions of pieces of paper, file folders, and file cabinets as the principal storage medium for important information. Compared to those old tools, of course, computers do much more, much faster — and with greater accuracy.

  • 8 the Relational Data Model
    CHAPTER 8 ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ The Relational Data Model One of the most important applications for computers is storing and managing information. The manner in which information is organized can have a profound effect on how easy it is to access and manage. Perhaps the simplest but most versatile way to organize information is to store it in tables. The relational model is centered on this idea: the organization of data into collections of two-dimensional tables called “relations.” We can also think of the relational model as a generalization of the set data model that we discussed in Chapter 7, extending binary relations to relations of arbitrary arity. Originally, the relational data model was developed for databases — that is, Database information stored over a long period of time in a computer system — and for database management systems, the software that allows people to store, access, and modify this information. Databases still provide us with important motivation for understanding the relational data model. They are found today not only in their original, large-scale applications such as airline reservation systems or banking sys- tems, but in desktop computers handling individual activities such as maintaining expense records, homework grades, and many other uses. Other kinds of software besides database systems can make good use of tables of information as well, and the relational data model helps us design these tables and develop the data structures that we need to access them efficiently. For example, such tables are used by compilers to store information about the variables used in the program, keeping track of their data type and of the functions for which they are defined.

  • DBMS Keys Mahmoud El-Haj 13/01/2020 The
    DBMS Keys Mahmoud El-Haj 13/01/2020 The following is to help you understand the DBMS Keys mentioned in the 2nd lecture (2. Relational Model) Why do we need keys: • Keys are the essential elements of any relational database. • Keys are used to identify tuples in a relation R. • Keys are also used to establish the relationship among the tables in a schema. Type of keys discussed below: Superkey, Candidate Key, Primary Key (for Foreign Key please refer to the lecture slides (2. Relational Model). • Superkey (SK) of a relation R: o Is a set of attributes SK of R with the following condition: . No two tuples in any valid relation state r(R) will have the same value for SK • That is, for any distinct tuples t1 and t2 in r(R), t1[SK] ≠ t2[SK] o Every relation has at least one default superkey: the set of all its attributes o Basically superkey is nothing but a key. It is a super set of keys where all possible keys are included (see example below). o An attribute or a set of attributes that can be used to identify a tuple (row) of data in a Relation (table) is a Superkey. • Candidate Key of R (all superkeys that can be candidate keys): o A "minimal" superkey o That is, a (candidate) key is a superkey K such that removal of any attribute from K results in a set of attributes that IS NOT a superkey (does not possess the superkey uniqueness property) (see example below). o A Candidate Key is a Superkey but not necessarily vice versa o Candidate Key: Are keys which can be a primary key.

In this paper, we aimed to provide a comparative evaluation of two popular open-source database management systems (DBMSs): MySQL as a relational DBMS and, more recently, as a non-relational DBMS, and CouchDB as a non-relational DBMS. This comparison was based on performance evaluation of CRUD (CREATE, READ, UPDATE, DELETE) operations for different amounts of data to show how these two databases could be modeled and used in an application and highlight the differences in the response time and complexity. The main objective of the paper was to make a comparative analysis of the impact that each specific DBMS has on application performance when carrying out CRUD requests.
