ACCELERATED ROW DECOMPRESSION

摘要

A method comprises streaming one or more pages of a database to a hardware accelerator, extracting one or more rows from each of the one or more pages of the database, determining whether a given one of the extracted rows is compressed, decompressing the given one of the extracted rows responsive to the determination and outputting the decompressed row. The decompressing step is performed in the hardware accelerator. The hardware accelerator may be a field-programmable gate array. The method allows for hardware accelerated row decompression.
