Fragment Allocations for Partially Replicated Databases Considering Data Modifications and Changing Workloads
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Columnar database systems can process complex mixed workloads on a single node. In case of increasing and peak analytical processing demand, we can offload read-only queries to replicas. Partial replication, i.e., duplicating only data subsets to additional nodes, is more cost-efficient than full replication for two primary reasons: (i) Partial replicas require less storage and can be set up faster. (ii) Partial replicas must synchronize only stored data subsets, allowing better scalability. However, determining which queries to offload is challenging for larger workloads because queries access overlapping data subsets and cause synchronization costs.
