Implementation Of A Segmented, Transactional Database Caching System, Benjamin J. Sandmann

Journal of Undergraduate Research at Minnesota State University, Mankato

Research on algorithms and concepts regarding memory-based data caching can help solve the performance bottleneck in current Database Management Systems. Problems such as data concurrency, persistent storage, and transaction management have limited most memory cache’s capabilities. It has also been tough to develop a proper user- oriented and business friendly way of implementing such a system. The research of this project focused on code implementation, abstract methodologies and how to best prepare such an application for common business usage.
