Learning Outcomes

The global data volume is increasing dramatically each year. Understanding how to store, process and manage these huge amounts of data efficiently is a key requirement for software engineers and data analysts in the modern IT world. This lab (following the corresponding lecture topics of DBT-Database Technology) will teach students both the fundamentals of data processing in traditional single-node database systems and how to scale out these techniques to huge amounts of data in large-scale, distributed environments. During the implementation part of the lab, students will get hands-on experience with important data processing techniques by implementing several components of a relational database system and by using parallel programming platforms like Apache Hadoop or Nephele/PACT.

Content

In the database technology lab, students will implement components of a relational database system and get hands-on experience with a parallel data processing platform. The actual components implemented may vary each year, but will include parsing, query optimizer, execution engine, index structures and storage system.

Description of Teaching and Learning Methods

Lectures are accompanied by exercises in small groups to practically rehearse the theory taught in the lectures. In the project, the students will be split in teams and under self-control will implement some components of a database system, with the goal to have a running demonstrator at the end of the semester.

Requirements for participation and examination

Desirable prerequisites for participation in the courses:

This course is the base course for master students with focus on database systems and information management and should be attended in the first semester of the master program. In contrast to the introduction of database systems (MPGI5/DBS), which looks database systems from an application programmers point of view, this class focuses on the internals of database systems. To participate, students are required to have successfully completed a Bachelor in computer science with a focus on database systems (participation in the Datenbankpraktikum, Datenbankprojekt). As a mandatory requirement, knowledge of data modeling, relational algebra, and SQL as well as a very good command (!!) of Java, or possibly C/C++/C#, programming is required to participate in the course.

Mandatory requirements for the module test application:

This module has no requirements.

Registration Procedures

Students are required to register via the DIMA course registration tool before the start of the first lecture (http://www.dima.tu-berlin.de/). Within the first six weeks after commencement of the lecture, students will have to register for the course at QISPOS (university examination protocol tool) and ISIS (course organization tool) in addition to the registration at the DIMA course registration tool.
