Efficient Multidisk Database Storage Configuration

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 521))

Abstract

Simple database storage configuration includes block device and filesystem. In advanced multi-disk database storage configuration also disk manager is required. Article presents multi-disk storage configuration impact on relational database performance. Research results include various local multi-disk storage space configuration scenarios for database cluster in modern database management systems with popular disk managers like software RAID and standard or thin provisioned logical volume equipped with disk allocation policy. The research conclusions facilitate the local storage space configuration for efficient transaction processing in relational databases.
