benchmarking database design for mixed oltp and olap workloads
Current database benchmarks are either focusing on online transaction processing (OLTP) or on online analytical pro- cessing (OLAP) systems. This traditional separation has to be reevaluated to reflect current trends in the design of database systems. We see a need for a realistic benchmark workload taking both aspects into account. Therefore, we defined a mixed workload and illustrate ways to apply our workload to evaluate the influence of database design on system performance.
