Practices at the Frontiers of Database Scalability

2006 WinterCorp Research Report

Practices at the Frontiers of Database Scalability presents findings from the most recent WinterCorp TopTen survey of the world’s leading databases.  It examines the large database marketplace and identifies the challenges facing today’s database professionals.  The research reveals insights and trends in large-scale database practices, and discloses the products and architectures that are meeting the most demanding requirements.  The report also tracks the frontiers of database scalability by assessing the size and workload of the leading computing installations.

Practices at the Frontiers of Database Scalability covers the following topics:

  • Demographics
  • Database and Server Architecture
  • Hardware and Operating System
  • Database Management Systems (DBMS)
  • Implementation Issues and Benefits
  • Projected Size and Workload

WinterCorp reports are the foremost source for authoritative, independent data on the world’s largest and most intensively used databases. Survey participants complete a brief questionnaire on operating environment, growth projections and four key database metrics: database size, volume of normalized data, most rows/records and peak workload.  As part of the survey process, participants are required to validate selected survey data, thus ensuring the highest data accuracy possible.
