CSE-562 : Database Systems Projects
Data Management Systems (including Relational Databases, Non-Relational Databases, and NoSQL storage systems) form the basis of the Big Data Economy we now live in. A data management system is responsible for storing data, enabling efficient access to that data, as well as mediating concurrent modifications. This class approaches the challenges of designing a data management system from a standpoint that is both principled and practical. The course revolves around a term-long programming assignment, in which you will build a system that answers SQL queries efficiently. Course lectures will focus on the conceptual basis for this system, and will discuss how the techniques you learn generalize (e.g., to the use of NoSQL systems)
In this course, you will learn...
... how to efficiently store and retrieve data programatically.
... how to optimize big-data computations.
... how to use index structures to accelerate computations.
... how to safely and efficiently manipulate data concurrently.
... how to recover state after software and hardware failures.
... how to query and update distributed data consistently.
