Abstract:
It is a purpose of this invention to achieve Scale-Out of the distributed database system that assumes a real-time update to be a requirement and which is achieved by dividing the database system into two or more database domains. This is to achieve handling of even larger scale databases while providing even higher performance. Assuming that the large-scale database system has been distributed to two or more of above-mentioned data base domains, in multi transaction processing with real-time update of the database object across two or more of above-mentioned database domain, this invention is achieved by executing the above-mentioned multi transaction processing to the database meta information storage management part in the database meta information management repository device by applying partition topology technology or replication topology technology for exchange and synchronization of meta information such as status information etc. at even higher speeds.

Description:
FIELD OF INVENTION 
     The systems and methods of the present invention relate generally to the field of the distributed database system, and the grid computing system that uses it. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Past distributed database technology involved a trade-off between processing throughput, and securing of consistency related to distributed transaction processing and exclusive control and of correspondence related to referential integrity. Two-phase commit technology and replication technology have been applied to secure the said consistency and said referential integrity so far, however practicable throughput was not able to be obtained, moreover it is applied to practical use and little has been heard of anyone obtaining sufficient results. On the other hand, when two-phase commit technology or replication technology is not used, possible distributed database of a real-time update has not been put to practical use in the former technology. What is called a distributed database allowing real-time update is actually just a virtual single database system applied to the secondary distributed storage medium. Moreover, on search sites or virtual store sites on the Internet, it is assumed the update system uses batches and the search system uses a distributed reading specialized type distributed database system. 
     Recently known is the system described in Patent Reference Document 1 shown in  FIG. 1  where the distributed database system connects two or more said database domains including a database management system by peer to peer, manages information on status such as structure, exclusive controls of the database arranged and referential integrity during database domains as a meta data besides the main body data, has excellent scalability by mutually exchanging and synchronizing meta information on each same kind of meta information between each of the database domains and makes the database object minimize by a granularity arbitrary, and contributes to the localization of the trouble part and to minimize shortening of the restoration time. A concrete method to exchange said meta information was not referred to in Patent Reference Document 1, but at the time that the technology was developed that was described in Patent Reference Document 1 (the inventor of this invention conceived the idea of this invention around December 2001), the structure of software was becoming complex and installing and maintenance involved difficulty in synchronization by an individual exchange at each said meta information. Therefore, the simplification of the structure is hoped for. Moreover, further speed-up is demanded in recent years when expanding data is assumed to be a problem. The problem was solved this time by the method of the exchange of each small masses of memory equipped with meta information and not by individual exchange of the synchronization of said meta information but the use of partition topology technology and replication technology system, described in Non-Patent Reference Document 1. 
     Moreover, partition topology technology described in Non-Patent Reference Document 1, constructs ‘Cache technology system’ on the main memory of two or more computers including the virtual machine as shown in  FIG. 2 . And each memory cache is shared from two or more computers by the unit of memory cache on the main memory on each computer, and in the system that connects two or more computers not large comparatively and composes a huge-scale virtual machine comparatively, it is known as a technology that constructs a comparatively huge-scale virtual In-memory database system. However, it cannot be said that this is a method of achieving distributed database, and it is a method of achieving a comparatively huge-scale mere virtual single database system. As a result, the localization of the trouble part as storage is possible at the trouble. However, it doesn&#39;t become localization of the trouble part as database system. Therefore, the collection of the update journals for making and the roll forward of the snap shot for said consistency and backing up with said the referential integrity kept reaches the whole area of the database, then restoration in a short time is not easy because recovery reaches the entire database system. 
     Moreover, the technology which only has to access data on the main memory on own computer in the case of accessing data on the main memory on other computers, constructing ‘Cache technology system’ on the main memory of two or more computers including the virtual machine, making replication of the memory cache on the main memory on each computer, and synchronizing them mutually is described in a page of Non-Patent Reference Document 1 concerned. This is known as ‘Replication. However, it doesn&#39;t contribute to Scale Out because the shared amount of the memory cache does not increase even if the number of computers increases in this case. 
     In addition, the composition of general transaction system in which COMMIT is executed if all updates succeed, and in which ROLLBACK is done if as much as one update fails, is indicated in paragraph 0002 of patent document 4. In addition, it is indicated that there are “Nest transaction” and “Chain transaction” in paragraph 0013 as a technique for relating two or more transactions. A detailed explanation concerning “Nest transaction” is indicated in paragraph 0014 and paragraph 0015. Moreover, a detailed explanation concerning “Chain transaction” is indicated in paragraph 0016 and paragraph 0017.

     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     Using neither said ‘2 phase commits technology’ nor said replication technology of each database domain assuming that two or more database management devices are arranged in two or more database domain, the method of achieving the distributed database system that can be the real-time update processing with the mechanism that meta information on the status etc. of each database object in the database management device in database domain of each is exchanged mutually is described in Patent Reference Document 1. However, synchronization by an individual exchange complicates the structure of software, and does implementation and maintenance difficulty at each said meta information. The demand for the simplification of the structure is inevitable, and therefore, the expansion of data is remarkable, and further speed-up is needed in recent years. 
     The technology that makes part or all of data in the tuple the argument of Consistent Hashing as a method for doing the Scale Out when rows (henceforth tuple) of one table (henceforth relation) becomes a large amount of, and divides the tuple group by Consistent Hashing horizontally is described in Non-Patent Reference Document 2. It is assumed that a flexible correspondence method concerning the addition and removal of physical node that is the physical arrangement of the database object destination is future tasks there. On the other hand, without arranging the divided tuple group directly in physical node when the tuple group is horizontally divided by the hashing to precede Non-Patent Reference Document 2 that describe the technology that uses Consistent Hashing, and to do said Scale Out, it is assumed to be database object set as logic node, logic node and physics node are done in the mapping, and the technology that secures flexibility concerning the addition and the secession of said physical node by a hybrid method of hashing and mapping is described in Patent Reference Document 2.  FIG. 20  is a detailed block diagram of Database object management device specific device  907  that implements a hybrid method of hashing and mapping to map logic node and physical node described in Patent Reference Document 2. 
     Because distributed database in said one database domain is assumed for the horizontal decomposition of the relation with a large amount of tuple described in Patent Reference Document 2, it is needed to correspond to the horizontal decomposition of said relation across two or more database domain for further Scale Out. 
       FIG. 21  is a detailed block diagram of Database Object Management Device Specific Device &#39; 907  and ‘Database Meta Information Management Repository Device  500  described in Claim  4  to correspond to the horizontal decomposition of the said relation across two or more database domains. 
     The method of securing the consistency of the multi and transaction processing in single said database domain for one aspect committing is described in Patent Reference Document 3. 
     It is described in Patent Reference Document 3 that 2 Phase Commit is necessary to secure the maintenance of the consistency of the multi transaction processing between said Database Domain plurality. Therefore, securing practicable throughput is difficult for multi transaction processing where consistency across two or more said Database Domains is maintained. As a method to secure multi transaction process consistency, the status of each transaction process comprising said multi transaction process holds the status information of the said status for each said single transaction, making it a very complicated process. 
     The said database management system contributes to high speed through huge-scale and In-memory database management system of partition topology technology described in Non-Patent Reference Document 1, and by linking a plurality of small computers comprising a huge-scale single instance virtual database, so it is not necessary to apply said two-phase commit technology and replication technology for said consistency and said integrity. However, the relation comprising each data set on said small computers comprising said huge-scale single instance virtual database and the set relation and the set meaning the database object like each tuple does not respond directly. Accordingly, said specified database object cannot be located and managed at said small computer that is a specified node. This means that said database object specified is positioned at the small computer that is said node frequently accessed by said database object specified, and said other database object specified is allocated to the small computer that is said node frequently accessed by another database object specified, and that the small computer that is said node and said database object specified cannot be clearly linked and managed. On the other hand, as described in Non-Patent Reference Document 2, said database object group split into easily managed size is allocated to the comparatively easily managed, comparatively small calculating machine that is a special node, and the huge-scale distributed database loosely interconnected with divided said database object is necessary for the independence of the distributed said database object group. This contributes strongly to consistency and integrity of distributed said database object group. However, maintenance of consistency and integrity between said distributed database objects must be done by said two-phase commit technology and replication technology, leaving problems with performance aspects. Also, as described in Non-Patent Reference Document 2, in one relation containing a huge number of tuple, each tuple is assigned a unique ID and when it is discriminated from other tuples, the relationship between the computer having said physical storage apparatus and said ID of that tuple requires flexible dynamic response for participation and quitting (including force quit due to breakdown etc) from a computer system having said physical storage apparatus. 
     Accordingly, regarding scale out of the distributed database system due to distribution into a plurality of database systems required by real time update, issues faced by this invention were how to deal with further complexity and how to realize further high performance. 
     Methods to Resolve Issues 
     This invention distributes a huge-scale database system to said a plurality of database domains, and in said multi transaction process accompanying real time update across said a plurality of database domains, exchanges and synchronizes meta information such as each type of status information comprising data dictionary information, exclusive control information, reference integrity information, and update access counter and database object set identifier location information map table to solve said issues by applying partition topology technology and replication technology system described in Non-Patent Reference Document 1. 
     Moreover, the update access counter characterized by being identified by process identifier that identifies process that becomes starting point of update access to identify a series of multiple transaction where consistency should be maintained is used in this invention. That is, this invention solves the problem by applying the update access counter technology of which time when the counter returned to an initial value will be considered complete of a series of multiple transaction processing where one consistency should be maintained, by ups and downs of the counter identified by process ID in the process that becomes the starting point of the multiple and transaction processing in stead of the multiple and transaction processing by one phase committing protocol by a unitary sharing of the status of each transaction by the coordinator described in patent document 3. 
     EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION 
     Packaging and security of said meta information in the distributed database system described in Patent Reference Document 1 has been simplified, and high speed synchronization is possible for a plurality of memory caches having said meta information, so performance is also improved for said distributed database system described in Patent Reference Document 1 that required synchronization of meta information individually. 
     The hashing mapping hybrid method described in Patent Reference Document 2 enables efficient horizontal partitioning of relations with a huge number of tuple, and can be spread across said database domain. 
     Instead of multi transaction processing by one-step commit protocol in the said domain by one dimensional sharing of each transaction status by the coordinator described in Patent Reference Document 3, the multi transaction process spread across a plurality of database domains can be done at high speed by the counter returning to its initial value being recognized as completion of one multi transaction by up-down of the counter recognized by the process ID of the process that is the starting point during multi transaction processing across multiple database domains.

     INDUSTRIAL FIELD APPLICATION 
     By partitioning huge scale database system as far as possible into functioning as independent databases, and Loose-coupling and Re-uniting these partitioned databases, a huge scale distributed database system of the same scale is provided. Accompanying the large capacity and low price of main memory apparatus in recent years, miniaturized independent databases are installed in low cost server devices as In-memory databases that do not include at all time-consuming heavy processing such as serialize, de-serialize. When these cheap database server devices are linked together in huge numbers by high speed network technology such as InfiniBand etc., when database server apparatus are dynamically added, and even when damage occurs to part of the database server apparatus and they must be cut off, the effect can be localized and when the damage has been eliminated, the snapshot and journal for the starting point of the roll forward is also minimized to the localized damage, and a grid database system can be provided capable of recovery in a short time and real time updating. 
     Plug-in Database Server Appliance which assumes that said database domain construction is one unit can be constructed, and the said plug-in database server appliances can be located in a racks in the data center, connected each other, and provided the huge scale grid database system which can scale-out.
