DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book is concerned with the architectural alternatives for client-server database systems, presenting the arguments for using caching as the basis for constructing page server database systems, and providing an overview of other environments in which caching-related issues arise. A significant amount of the text is focused on the development and simulation-based performance analysis of algorithms for data caching and memory management, including a performance study of seven proposed algorithms. Caching-based techniques to further improve system performance and scalability, and client data caching as an organizing principle for distributed information systems. This book is for anyone interested in the performance and architecture of distributed information systems, and object-based database management systems particularly.
