Learning Outcomes

Content

The database technology course is split into two parts, each covering roughly one half of the semester. During the first part, the students learn the fundamentals of database technology for relational database systems. This includes the general architecture of a DBMS, file- and buffer management, query processing, indexing, metadata management, query optimization, locking, recovery and transaction management. In the second part, students learn the basics of parallel data processing, with a focus on largescale, distributed systems and “cloud computing”. Topics include parallel relational databases, parallel no-SQL processing platforms like MapReduce, distributed data storage and retrieval – e.g., via DHTs –, techniques for distributed locking and transaction handling, multi-tenancy and software as a service, as well as modern hardware, benchmarking, and data stream processing. The course consists of a lecture and theoretical, written exercises.

Description of Teaching and Learning Methods

Lectures are accompanied by individual exercises to practically rehearse the theory taught in the lectures. The course will be given in English.

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/Informationssystemse&Datenanalyse), which looks at 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). 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. Due to capacity reasons, the class is limited to at most 60 participants.

Duration of the Module

This module can be completed in one semester.

Maximum Number of Participants

The maximum capacity of students is 60.

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.
