ZNS - Efficient query processing with ZurichNoSQL

摘要

NoSQL data stores have recently gained popularity as an alternative to relational database management systems since they typically do not require a fixed schema and scale well for large data sets. These systems have often been tuned to a number of very specific operations such as writing or reading of large data sets. However, none of these novel systems has been demonstrated to efficiently perform multi-dimensional range queries incorporating many boolean operators, a task which is commonly used in scientific data exploration, data warehousing and business analytics.
