Today, databases are moving away from typical management applications, and address new application areas. For this, databases must consider (1) recent developments in computer technology, as the object paradigm and distribution, and (2) management of new data types such as spatial or temporal data. This course introduces the concepts and techniques of some innovative database applications. | Today, databases are moving away from typical management applications, and address new application areas.

Examples of topics are given in the next section of this document. Please notice that the template for these topics is "<Technology> and <Tool>" for groups of 2 students and "<Technology> with <Tool1> and <Tool2>" for groups of 4 students. |
- | Each group will study a database technology and illustrate it with an application developed in a database management system to be chosen (e.g., Oracle, PostgreSQL, DB2, SQL Server, mySQL, etc..). | + | Each group will study a database technology (e.g., document stores, time series databases, etc.) and illustrate it with an application developed in a database management system to be chosen (e.g., SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc.). The topic should be addressed in a technical way, to explain the foundations of the underlying technology. The application must use the chosen technology. Examples of technologies and tools can be found for example in the following [[https://db-engines.com/en/ranking|web site]]. |
- | The topic should be addressed in a technical way, to explain the underlying technologies. The application must use the specific technology manipulated. | + | |
- | The choice of topic and the application must be made in agreement with the lecturer. The topic should not be included in the programme of the Master in Computer Science and Engineering. The project will be presented to the lecturer and the fellow students at the end of the semester. This presentation will be supported by a slideshow. A written report containing the contents of the presentation is also required. The presentation and written report will explain the possibilities offered by the database management system chosen and give a general description of the application implemented. | + | It is important to understand that the objective of the project is NOT about developing an application with GUI. The objective is to benchmark the proposed tool in relation to the database requirements of your application. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the set of queries and updates that your application requires and do a benchmark with, e.g., 1K, 10K, 100K, and 1M "objects" (rows, documents, nodes, etc. depending on the technology used) to determine if the tool shows a linear or exponential behavior. As usual when performing benchmarks, the queries and updates are executed n times (e.g., 6 times where the first execution is not considered because it is different from the others since the cache structures must be filled) and the average of the execution times is computed. A comparison with traditional relational technology must be provided to show that the chosen tool is THE technology of choice for your application, better than all other alternatives, and that it will perform correctly when the system is deployed at full scale. |
