CPSC 461 Future of DBMS Marina L. Gavrilova
Overview • What is DBMS now • How DBMS was viewed before • Current trends and developments • Future directions of research
What is DBMS? Wikepedia definition of DBMS: • Is a set of programs that enables you to store, modify, and extract information from a database, it also provides users with tools to add, delete, access, modify, and analyze data stored in one location; • Active research area; • A multibillion dollar business.
Old DBMS • Old DBMS: • Stand-alone, • Static, non-interactive, • Very limited representing interaction between objects, • Confusing set of data models, • Independent application
Current DBMS • Parallel • Distributed • Information visualization + HCI support • Capable of learning and supporting decision-making process • Enabling • Supports transition: data->information ->knowledge->wisdom
Motivation • Organizations are relying less on their own data automation and more on sharing. • Portability of the data is a key component to finding and evaluating data and facilitating data transfer. • New data models / structures emerge to better represent different phenomena. • Extremely large data set problem becoming a crucial one. • Security and privacy play pivotal role.
Related topics • interoperability • integration • general type data (megadata) • distributed systems • decision support systems • fuzzy datasets • visualization
Trends in data storage • Society is collecting and storing more information in a digital form • There is better access to information for everyone, both within organizations and outside organizations (i.e. public access)
Trends in Integrated systems • New query languages • New inter-related systems • New interfaces • Extensive set of tools for data analysis, query and representation
Trends in web searching • Graphic searchers • Multimedia database • New methods for information similarity • Adaptive learning • Data mining
Trends in on-line search • User behavioral patterns • Visual context • Social profiles • Multiple contexts • User preference/profiling
Trends in privacy and security • Encryption • Combination of different security mechanisms • Data privacy • Policies in addition to backup/recovery
Future trends • Integration (multiple formats, multiple databases) • Accessibility (anytime, anywhere) • Reliability (no data loss) • Proper display of data (advanced graphics methods) • Real-time access
Future trends • Real-time decision support • Information visualization and 3D modeling • Tracking DB development on-line • Data exchange between different applications/vendors • Virtual and augmented reality • Intelligent Decision support and cognitive methods for data analysis
Future Interfaces • Scientific visualization tools • Automated vision tools • Fourth dimension • Advanced spatial analysis tools (e.g. S+) • Beyond the WIMP (windows, icons, menus and • pointers) Desktop • High Interactivity • Multisensory input • Multisensory output • Touch free displays
