Polystore databases allow to store data in different formats and data models and offer several query languages. While such polystore systems are highly beneficial for various analytical workloads, they provide limited support for transactional and for mixed OLTP and OLAP workloads, the latter in contrast to hybrid transactional and analytical processing (HTAP) systems. In this paper, we present Polypheny-DB, a modular polystore that jointly provides support for analytical and transactional workloads including update operations and that thus takes one step towards bridging the gap between polystore and HTAP systems.
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.
