Hypertable Vs Oracle

Hypertable is an open source distributed database that could potentially replace the embedded database used in EPICS Archiver. Performance tests showed Hypertable could insert half an hour of SNS data at a rate of 24,000 samples/second and retrieve the data at a rate of over 5 million samples/second. For a week of SNS data, Hypertable inserted at a rate of 14,800 samples/second and retrieved all data in under 20 minutes. Compared to Oracle, Hypertable was over 8 times faster for insertion and over 300 times faster for retrieval. The results indicate Hypertable has high performance suitable for large-scale archiving of process variable data.

Target

Make the EPICS Archiver embedded DB more


reliable and safe especially in large application
with a large number of PVs to store

First Approach: re-write the Rtree and doublelinked-list embedded DB structure

Second approach: look for a complete


replacement of the embedded DB with new one

Why not Beauty ? (Best Ever Archiver Utility)


Beauty = Classical Archiver over Oracle DB
Pros:

SQL statements accept

Professional Solution
Cons:
Not so fast
Really expensive (licenses)

BROOKHAVEN SCIENCE
ASSOCIATES

Why not MySQL ?

Potential scalability concerns


Designed for a single machine (not distributed)
What it takes to make it scale

Major engineering effort


Solutions are usually ad hoc
Solutions usually involve horizontal partitioning + replication
Solutions involve expensive hardware

BROOKHAVEN SCIENCE

BigTable ?

Proprietary DB used by Google over their proprietary Google File


System
High Performance
Large amount of data
Stable
Reliable

HYPERTABLEwhat is it ?

Hypertable has been developed as an in-house software at Zvents Inc.


In January 2009, Baidu, the leading Chinese language search engine,
became a project sponsor. Rediff.com is one of the premier worldwide
online providers of news, information, communication, entertainment
and shopping service.
Hypertable is licensed under the GNU General Public License
Version 2.
Our goal is nothing less than that Hypertable become one of the
worlds most massively parallel high performance database
platforms.
Not RDB
