DATABASE SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION PRIORITIZATION USING ROBUSTNESS MAPS

摘要

Computer-implemented systems and associated operating methods take measurements and landmarks associated with robustness maps and perform tests evaluating the robustness of a database engine's operator implementations and/or query components. The illustrative computer-implemented system comprises logic that receives one or more robustness maps of measured database system performance acquired during database execution in a predetermined range of runtime conditions and uses information from the robustness map or maps to prioritize potential changes that improve robustness of a database system implementation wherein landmarks in the robustness map or maps are operated upon as a robustness bug describing conditions under which a predetermined implementation of a database operator or query component degrades in a manner different from a predetermined expected manner.
