When Database Systems Meet the Grid
Maria A. Nieto-Santisteban, Alexander S. Szalay, Aniruddha R. Thakar +3
We illustrate the benefits of combining database systems and Grid technologies for data-intensive applications. Using a cluster of SQL servers, we reimplemented an existing Grid ap…
Sequential File Programming Patterns and Performance with .NET
Peter Kukol, Jim Gray
Programming patterns for sequential file access in the .NET Framework are described and the performance is measured. The default behavior provides excellent performance on a single…
Where the Rubber Meets the Sky: Bridging the Gap between Databases and Science
Jim Gray, Alexander S. Szalay
Scientists in all domains face a data avalanche - both from better instruments and from improved simulations. We believe that computer science tools and computer scientists are in…
TerraServer SAN-Cluster Architecture and Operations Experience
Tom Barclay, Jim Gray
Microsoft TerraServer displays aerial, satellite, and to-pographic images of the earth in a SQL database available via the Internet. It is one of the most popular online at-lases,…
Performance Considerations for Gigabyte per Second Transcontinental Disk-to-Disk File Transfers
Peter Kukol, Jim Gray
Moving data from CERN to Pasadena at a gigabyte per second using the next generation Internet requires good networking and good disk IO. Ten Gbps Ethernet and OC192 links are in pl…
Scientific Data Management in the Coming Decade
Jim Gray, David T. Liu, Maria Nieto-Santisteban +3
This is a thought piece on data-intensive science requirements for databases and science centers. It argues that peta-scale datasets will be housed by science centers that provide…
