C-Store: A Column-oriented DBMS
1.1 Proposal
- Compare Row-store with Column-store DBMS
Row-store DBMS | Column-store DBMS |
|---|---|
Attributes of a row are placed contiguously in storage | Values for each attribute (column) are stored contiguously |
Write-optimized system | Read-optimized system |
More suitable for OLTP-style applications | Data warehouses, OLAP |
1.2 Why C-Store?
- Can only bring required attribute values into memory
- Data can be packed densely together rather than aligned by byte or word boundaries
- Easy to encode together column values of the same data type
- Typical queries involve aggregates over important attributes
- ...
1.3 Architecture
Writeable Store (WS) which is architected to support high performance inserts and updates.
Read-optimized Store (RS), which is capable of supporting very large amounts of information.
This architecture avoid locking with write based workload.
Components：
- WS：support high performance inserts and updates.
- RS：support high performance reads.
- Tuple Mover：moves updated records from WS to RS.
Key Points：
- Queries (in SQL) must access data in both storage systems.
- Updates are implemented as an insert and a delete.
- Inserts are sent to WS, while deletes must be marked in RS for later purging by the tuple mover.
- merge out process
- use a variant of the LSM-tree concept to merge ordered WS data objects with large RS blocks.

1.4 Innovative
- hybrid architecture
- projections
- Heavily compressed columns using one of several coding schemes
- A column-oriented optimizer and executor
- High availability and improved performance through K-safety using a sufficient number of overlapping projections(基于 projections 的 HA 和 K-safety)
- The use of snapshot isolation to avoid 2PC and locking for queries.
1.5 Projections
Projections Definition：Groups of columns which are stored in physically contiguous manner
- Anchoredon a logical table T
- Can also contain columnsfrom other tables that are related to T through foreign keys, etc.
emp
For example：
代码语言：javascript复制EMP1 (name, age)
EMP2 (dept, age, DEPT.floor)
EMP3 (name, salary)
DEPT1(dname, floor
1.6 Segments and Storage Keys
- Segments
- Every projection is divided into segments
- Value-based partitioning on the sort key
- Storage Keys
- In each segment, different column values belongingtothesamerecord are identified by SK
1.7 Join Indices
Used to reconstruct a table from its projections.For example：Procection2 -> Projcection1
join_index
1.8 RS and WS
1.8.1 encoding schemes
- Self-order, few distinct values(or with most of the same values)
1,1,1,1,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,5,5,5
(v, f, n) -> v：the column where first appears, f: the position in the column, n: the number of times v appears
(1, 1, 4), (3, 5, 7),(5, 12, 3)
- Foreign-order, few distinct values(or with most of the same values)
0,0,1,1,2,1,0,2,1
(v, b) -> v: value, b: bitset for this value
(0, 110000100), (1, 001101001), and (2,000010010)
- Self-order, many distinct values
1,4,7,7,8,12
(1,3,3,0,1,4)
The idea for this scheme is to represent every value in the column as a delta from the previous value in the column
- Foreign-order, few distinct values
leave it unencoded
1.8.2 WS
- The difference being columns are not encoded since it is assumed that WS is trivial in size as compared to RS.
- Sid and SK identify the same tuple in RS and WS.
- Every column represented as (v, sk) and a B-tree is built for sk.
- Sort key s represented as (s, sk)
1.9 Storage Management
storage allocator：It will dynamically adjust the partition of the Segment, or apply for the Segment.The corresponding WS and the Join Indexes related to the RS also need to be adjusted accordingly.
