Content
• What a distributed database management system (DDBMS)
• DDBMS components• Database implementation is affected by different
levels of data and process distribution• How transactions are managed in a distributed
database environment• How database design is affected by the
distributed database environment
5
Problem in Centralized database Management
• Performance degradation• High cost• Reliability problems
6
DDBMS Advantages
• Data located near site with greatest demand• Faster data access• Faster data processing• Growth facilitation• Improved communications• Reduced operating costs• User-friendly interface• Less danger of single-point failure• Processor independence
7
DDBMS Disadvantages
• Complexity of management and control• Security• Lack of standards• Increased storage requirements• Greater difficulty in managing data environment• Increased training costs
8
Distributed Processing Shares database’s logical processing among
physically, networked independent sites

Distributed Database Stores logically related database over physically
independent sites

Distributed Database vs. Distributed Processing
• Distributed processing – Does not require distributed database
– May be based on a single database on single computer
– Copies or parts of database processing functions must be distributed to all data storage sites
• Distributed database – Requires distributed processing
• Both – Require a network to connect components
11
Functions of DDBMS
• Application/end user interface• Validation• Transformation• Query optimization• Mapping• I/O interface• Formatting • Security• Backup and recovery• DB Administration• Concurrency Control• Transaction Management

DDBMS Components
• Computer workstations • Network hardware and software components• Communications media• Transaction processor (TP)
– Also called application manager (AP) or transaction manager (TM)
• Data processor (DP)– Also called data manager (DM)

DDBMS Protocols
• Interface with network to transport data and commands between DPs and TPs
• Synchronize data received from DPs and route to appropriate TPs
• Ensure common database functions – Security
– Concurrency control
– Backup and recovery
18
Levels of Data and Process Distribution
Database systems can be classified based on process distribution and data distribution
Table 10.1
19
Single-Site Processing, Single-Site Data (SPSD)
• All processing on single CPU or host computer• All data are stored on host computer disk• DBMS located on the host computer• DBMS accessed by dumb terminals• Typical of mainframe and minicomputer DBMSs• Typical of 1st generation of single-user
microcomputer database
20
Single-Site Processing, Single-Site Data (con’t.)
Figure 10.6
21
Multiple-Site Processing, Single-Site Data (MPSD)
• Requires network file server• Applications accessed through LAN• Variation known as client/server architecture
Figure 10.7
22
Multiple-Site Processing, Multiple-Site Data (MPMD)
• Fully distributed DDBMS with support for multiple DPs and TPs at multiple sites– Homogeneous I
• Integrate one type of centralized DBMS over the network
– Heterogeneous • Integrate different types of centralized DBMSs over a
network
23
Heterogeneous Distributed Database Scenario

Distributed DB Transparency
• Allows end users to feel like only database user• Hides complexities of distributed database• Transparency features
– Distribution
– Transaction
– Failure
– Performance
– Heterogeneity
25
Distribution Transparency
• Allows management of a physically dispersed database as though it were centralized
• Three Levels – Fragmentation transparency– Location transparency– Local mapping transparency
Table 10.2
26
Transaction Transparency
• Ensures transactions maintain integrity and consistency
• Completed only if all involved database sites complete their part of the transaction
• Management mechanisms– Remote request
– Remote transaction
– Distributed transaction
– Distributed request
27

32
Distributed Concurrency Control
• Multisite, multiple-process operations more likely to create data inconsistencies and deadlocked transactions
• Problems– Transaction committed by local DP
– One DP could not commit transaction’s result
– Yields inconsistent database
33
Two-Phase Commit Protocol
• DO-UNDO-REDO protocol– Write-ahead protocol
– Two kinds of nodes• Coordinator
• Subordinates
• Phases– Preparation
• Coordinator sends message to all subordinates
• Confirms all are ready to commit or abort
– Final Commit• Ensures all subordinates have committed or aborted
34
Performance Transparency and Query Optimization
• Objective: Minimize total cost associated with execution of request
• Main costs– Access time – Communication – CPU time
• Basis for query optimization algorithms
– Optimum execution order– Sites accessed to minimize communication costs
• Automatic or Manual• Dynamic or static optimization• Statistically based vs. rule-based query optimization
algorithms
35
Distributed Database Design
• Partition database into fragments– Horizontal
– Vertical
– Mixed
• Fragments to replicate– Storage of data copies at multiple sites
– Fully, partially, unreplicated databases
• Data allocation– Where to locate data
– Centralized, partitioned, replicated
36
Client/Server Advantages Over DDBMS
• Client/server less expensive• Client/server solutions allow use of
microcomputer’s GUI• More people with PC skills than mainframe skills• PC is well established in workplace• Numerous data analysis and query tools exist • Considerable cost advantages to off-loading
application development
37
Client/Server Disadvantages
• Creates more complex environment with different platforms
• Increased number of users and sites creates security problems
• Training issues become more complex and expensive
