  • Databases are an important tool for the storage and management of information for businesses. Both relational database management systems (RDBMS) and non-relational database management systems exist for this purpose. Examples of RDBMS' include ORACLE, DB2, and INFORMIX. Examples of nonrelational databases include custom databases created with the operating system, developed by IBM. The operating system allows programmers to created custom databases, which support keyed, sequential, and binary file types.

  • DBMS Prior to the arrival of RDBMS, DBMS existed on various Operating Systems (OS), which used to maintain data in files (knows as file system) with tree structures supporting different directories and sub directories. These OS file systems evolved with different vendors, with each vendor supporting different features and access mechanisms to enhance disk operations. As a result of these multiple approaches by different Vendors, popular File Systems like NTFS for Windows, File Allocation Table (FAT) for DOS, FAT32 for Windows 9x, NDS for Netware, HPFS for OS2 developed. However, there existed a similarity between the ways in which they maintained the root directory entries and locations in the hard disk, known as the File Allocation Tables. The hard disk was divided into cylinders/tracks/sectors/heads and combination of sectors formed clusters.

  • the present invention provides very high security, as all features of a database can be applied user schema wise. Each user is isolated from the other and entire directory info can be concealed which is highly impossible in an operating system. Further, every action on every file access is through an internal object query and for each of these actions, triggers can be programmed to give interactivity, which is not possible in an OS file system.

  • the disk resource is used commonly by any functional server, but the pattern of disk usage varies because of type of data, size of data, frequency of disk accessing request, nature of disk accessing requests etc... Since any multi user functional server, which is using disk resource finally accesses some files we derive patterns of functionalities and map patterns of data to arrive at a common event based functional feature in a resource agent disk which can encapsulate and deliver any disk resource functionality demanded by any multi user server. This guarantees data exchange between functional servers since the proposed agent always persists data, in accepted compatible standards (ex: ODBC).
  • FIG 1. Illustrates the working of the pattern analyzer.

  • the components mentioned are interfaced with an optimizer, which segregates operations based on type of operation to be performed on type of data. We always assume that the final base object is a file whenever data is persisted.
  • the modes of usage and sequence varies based on the state in which persistence is required i.e. we generally categorize and data state entity into three parts:
  • Pre result - transitionary persistent required before final result is derived This may be required when temporary buffers, which are used to derive the final result, exceed RAM availability and need a swap from primary to secondary storage. This may also be the state of data in between beginning of transaction and final commit or rollback (generally RBS or SWAP)
  • Final persistence This is the state of final data when actual database file is updated upon successful commit to intermediate files like log or archive logs.
  • the pattern and size of data persisted can be broadly classified into static and dynamic.
  • the static patterns of data can be various headers - database, extent, block, tuple, etc. which are database design entities and are part of metadata or meta-transactions.
  • the dynamic data is generally the data resulting from DML operation on user objects other than the metadata tables. These patterns are applications design specific and are variable in size based on amount of data in each record inserted, updated or deleted by the user.
  • the general functional pattern classification or any file operation is open, close, read, write, seek and flush. It does not matter whether the datafile is a LOG file, Database file or a Swap file. These operations being universal the patterns of data and sequence of operations generally dictate the flow of events the Disk agent has to follow.
  • Cursor operations dictate the pattern of read / write and associated operations.
  • isolation of various states of data from the beginning of the transaction till the data has been committed needs to be maintained and optimized as per atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability ('ACID') properties.
  • the transactional isolation is managed through the roll back segment ('RBS') of each client sessional instance.

  • Regular flushing of data (i.e. dirty blocks) of LOG or Database file is enforced, either time based (checkpointing) or priority based (flushing) to maintain the best state of data integrity of committed transactions.
  • the flushing logic is derived based on analytical heuristics of object usage across concurrent sessions and operations performed on them. These may include size of data, number of Tuples in a transaction, size of the transaction, source of data (local or distributed), replenishment of resource required, age of the dirtied block of data in cache etc.
