GaussDB, and its open source version named openGauss, are Huawei's relational database management systems (RDBMS), featuring a primary disk-based storage engine. This paper presents a new storage engine for GaussDB that is optimized for main memory and many cores. We started from a research prototype which exploits the power of the hardware but is not useful for customers. This paper describes the details of turning this prototype to an industrial storage engine, including integration with GaussDB. Standard benchmarks show that the new engine provides more than 2.5x performance improvement to GaussDB for full TPC-C on Intel's x86 many-cores servers, as well as on Huawei TaiShan servers powered by ARM64-based Kunpeng CPUs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
