  • TMS Xdata Documentation
    Overview TMS XData is a Delphi framework that allows you to create HTTP/HTTPS servers that expose data through REST/JSON. It is highly integrated into TMS Aurelius in a way that creating XData services based on applications with existing Aurelius mappings are just a matter of a few lines of code. XData defines URL conventions for adressing resources, and it specifies the JSON format of message payloads. It is heavily based on the OData standard. Such conventions, with the benefit of existing Aurelius mapping, allow building a full REST/JSON server with minimum writing of code. TMS XData uses TMS Sparkle as its core communication library. TMS XData product page: https://www.tmssoftware.com/site/xdata.asp TMS Software site: https://www.tmssoftware.com TMS XData is a full-featured Delphi framework that allows you to create REST/JSON servers, using server-side actions named service operations, and optionally exposing TMS Aurelius entities through REST endpoints. Consider that you have an Aurelius class mapped as follows: [Entity, Automapping] TCustomer = class strict private FId: integer; FName: string; FTitle: string; FBirthday: TDateTime; FCountry: TCountry; public property Id: Integer read FId write FId; property Name: string read FName write FName; property Title: string read FTitle write FTitle; property Birthday: TDateTime read FDateTime write FDateTime; property Country: TCountry read FCountry write FCountry; end; With a few lines of code you can create an XData server to expose these objects. You can retrieve an existing TCustomer

  • Near Real-Time Synchronization Approach for Heterogeneous Distributed Databases
    DBKDA 2015 : The Seventh International Conference on Advances in Databases, Knowledge, and Data Applications Near Real-time Synchronization Approach for Heterogeneous Distributed Databases Hassen Fadoua, Grissa Touzi Amel LIPAH FST, University of Tunis El Manar Tunis, Tunisia e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract—The decentralization of organizational units led to column is not available in the list of the existing relational database distribution in order to solve high availability and database management systems (RDBMS). This storage performance issues regarding the highly exhausting consumers unit’s variety holds the first problem discussed in this paper: nowadays. The distributed database designers rely on data data exchange format between the heterogeneous nodes in replication to make data as near as possible from the the same Distributed Database Management System requesting systems. The data replication involves a sensitive (DDBMS). The process of transforming raw data from operation to keep data integrity among the distributed architecture: data synchronization. While this operation is source system to an exchange format is called serialization. necessary to almost every distributed system, it needs an in The reverse operation, executed by the receiver side, is depth study before deciding which entity to duplicate and called deserialization. In the heterogeneous context, the which site will hold the copy. Moreover, the distributed receiver side is different from one site to another, and thus environment may hold different types of databases adding the deserialization implementation may vary depending on another level of complexity to the synchronization process. In the local DBMS. This data serialization is a very sensitive the near real-time duplication process, the synchronization task that may speed down the synchronization process and delay is a crucial criterion that may change depending on flood the network.

  • Aware, Workstation-Based Distributed Database System
    THE ARCHITECTURE OF AN AUTONOMIC, RESOURCE- AWARE, WORKSTATION-BASED DISTRIBUTED DATABASE SYSTEM Angus Macdonald PhD Thesis February 2012 Abstract Distributed software systems that are designed to run over workstation machines within organisations are termed workstation-based. Workstation-based systems are characterised by dynamically changing sets of machines that are used primarily for other, user-centric tasks. They must be able to adapt to and utilize spare capacity when and where it is available, and ensure that the non-availability of an individual machine does not affect the availability of the system. This thesis focuses on the requirements and design of a workstation-based database system, which is motivated by an analysis of existing database architectures that are typically run over static, specially provisioned sets of machines. A typical clustered database system — one that is run over a number of specially provisioned machines — executes queries interactively, returning a synchronous response to applications, with its data made durable and resilient to the failure of machines. There are no existing workstation-based databases. Furthermore, other workstation-based systems do not attempt to achieve the requirements of interactivity and durability, because they are typically used to execute asynchronous batch processing jobs that tolerate data loss — results can be re-computed. These systems use external servers to store the final results of computations rather than workstation machines. This thesis describes the design and implementation of a workstation-based database system and investigates its viability by evaluating its performance against existing clustered database systems and testing its availability during machine failures. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I’d like to thank my supervisors, Professor Alan Dearle and Dr Graham Kirby, for the opportunities, the support, and the education that they have given me.

  • Magic Quadrant for Data Warehouse Database Management Systems
    Magic Quadrant for Data Warehouse Database Management Systems Gartner RAS Core Research Note G00209623, Donald Feinberg, Mark A. Beyer, 28 January 2011, RV5A102012012 The data warehouse DBMS market is undergoing a transformation, including many acquisitions, as vendors adapt data warehouses to support the modern business intelligence and analytic workload requirements of users. This document compares 16 vendors to help you find the right one for your needs. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Despite a troubled economic environment, the data warehouse database management system (DBMS) market returned to growth in 2010, with smaller vendors gaining in acceptance. As predicted in the previous iteration of this Magic Quadrant, 2010 brought major acquisitions, and several of the smaller vendors, such as Aster Data, Ingres and Vertica, took major strides by addressing specific market needs. The year also brought major market growth from data warehouse appliance offerings (see Note 1), with both EMC/Greenplum and Microsoft formally introducing appliances, and IBM, Oracle and Teradata broadening their appliance lines with new offerings. Although we believe that much of the growth was due to replacements of aging or performance-constrained data warehouse environments, we also think that the business value of using data warehouses for new applications such as performance management and advanced analytics has driven — and is driving — growth. All the vendors have stepped up their marketing efforts as the competition has grown. End-user organizations should ignore marketing claims about the applicability and performance capabilities of solutions. Instead, they should base their decisions on customer references and proofs of concept (POCs) to ensure that vendors’ claims will hold up in their environments.

Each server has separate own database instance and these all act as instance of single database for the external network access on the unique virtual IP address. The architecture of the RAC is provides fault tolerance and a great power of treatment. Oracle RAC provides several features in any database operation of the enterprise level for example the scalability, availability, load balancing and failover. The purpose of this study is to serve as a quick reference guide to the installation of management and operation of the Oracle Cluster-ware Real Application Cluster (RAC) database. This feature is initially targeted for the technical staff mainly for DBA Admins of the system. Keywords: RAC, Shared Storage, SAN, Cluster-ware, Oracle ASM, Oracle Kernel. 1.
