The End of RDBMS/SQL as “One Size Fits All”-technology?
There are two interesting papers:
- “One Size Fits All”: An Idea Whose Time Has Come and Gone (local copy)
- The End of an Architectural Era (It’s Time for a Complete Rewrite) (local copy)
Both papers try to argue that it’s time to break with the mostly religious belief, that traditional Relational-DBMS
architectures – once designed for business data processing – are the still the “eierlegendewollmilchsau” for every requirement today.
By giving examples of stream-processing and the datawarehouseing market the show that domain-specific database engines can outperforme classical approaches by 1-2 orders of magnitude.
