A Novel Lightweight Main Memory Database for Telecom Network Performance Management System

Abstract

Today telecom network are growing complex. Although the amount of network performance data increased dramatically, telecom network operators require better performance on network performance data collection and analysis. Database is the important component in modern network management model. Since main memory database (MMDB) store data in main physical memory and provide very high-speed access, MMDB can suffice the requirements on data intensive and real time response in network performance management system. This paper presents a novel lightweight design on MMDB for network performance data persistence. This design improves data access performance in following aspects.  The data persistence mechanism employs user mode memory map provided by UNIX OS. To reduce the cost of data copy and data interpretation, the data storage format is designed as consistent with binary format in application memory. The database is provided as program library and the application can access data in shared memory to avoid the cost on inter-process communication. Once data is updated in memory, query application can get updated data without disk I/O cost. The data access methods adopt multi-level RB-Tree structure. In best case, the algorithm complexity is O(N). In worst case, the algorithm complexity is O(N*lgN). In real performance data distribution scenarios, the complexity is nearly O(N). The system approach has been tested in laboratory using benchmark data. The result shows the performances of the application fully meet the requirements of the product index. The CPU and memory consumption are also lower than network management system requirements

Design and Implementation of Regional Numerical Weather Prediction Operation Management System

“…The layered architecture realizes scheduling and monitoring of the service mode and is convenient for people being involved in management, operation and maintenance to implement management. Each layer is relatively independent, which simplifies systematic complexity, realizes flexible configuration of the system and lays a favorable foundation for stable operation and maintenance of service job [23][24][25]. The overall structure of the system is shown in Figure 2.…”

Web Entities Extraction Based on Semi-Structured Semantic Database

“…Web page relevance: adopting the formula 1 to calculate the topic relevance, choose one of the biggest correlation web pages. 22 ( , )…”

“…Because relational database is based on strict mathematical logic, and easy to use, in a fairly long time it is considered to be an ideal database model. But with the improved requirements of data management, database has changed to adapt to diversity of data structure such as MMDB [22] ,INMDB [23] .To extract data information from web pages and store the information in a semi-structured database which has rich semantics is useful for data management. This paper is aimed to data extraction and integration of semi-structured database--INMDB.…”

Application of Timesten on Web-Based Monitoring System

“…The Input/Output (I/O) operations on main memory are much faster than the operations on physical disks. It is therefore a good choice that uses the In-Memory Database (IMDB) to gain high query speed [1]. The Oracle Timesten (TT) is a high performance and reliable IMDB [2].…”
