Localized data affinity system and hybrid method

摘要

A method, system, and computer program for processing records is disclosed. The records are associated with record sets, based on a record number contained in the record. Record sets are associated with physically separate processor sets, which include one or more processors. Records are electronically routed to associated processor sets for processing, based on the record set associated with the record. Records are processed on processors in the processor sets. Furthermore, various localized affinities can be established. Process affinity can link server processes with processor sets. Cache affinity can link database caches with processor sets. Data affinity can link incoming data to processor sets.

1. A method of processing records in a database on a plurality of processors grouped into a plurality of physically separate processor sets, the method comprising:
associating, on at least one of the plurality of processors, each record with a record set of a plurality of record sets, based on a record number contained in the record; associating, on at least one of the plurality of processors, each record set with a processor set; electronically routing the records to processor sets based on the associated record set; and processing the records with the processor sets.
