Ethopian Database Management system as a Cloud Service: Limitations and advantages
Shaik Saidhbi · IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering · 2013
An Ethiopian Cloud database management system is a distributed database that delivers computing as a service instead of a product.It is the sharing of resources, software, and information between multiple devices over a network which is mostly the internet.It is expected that this number will grow significantly in the future.As a result, there is a growing interest in outsourcing database management tasks to third parties that can provide these tasks for much lower cost due to the economy of scale just like putting it into the cloud.In this paper, we discuss the recent trend in database management system and the possibilities of making it as one of the services offered in the cloud.We also Recently the cloud computing paradigm has been receiving significant excitement and attention in the media and blogosphere.To some, cloud computing seems to be little more than a marketing umbrella, encompassing topics such as distributed computing, grid computing, utility computing, and software as-a-service, that have already received significant research focus and commercial implementation.Nonetheless, there exist an increasing number of large companies that are offering cloud computing infrastructure products and services that do not entirely resemble the visions of these individual component topics.In this article we discuss the limitations and opportunities of deploying data management issues on these emerging cloud computing platforms.We speculate that large scale data analysis tasks, decision support systems, and application specific data marts are more likely to take advantage of cloud computing platforms than operational, transactional database systems (at least initially).We then discuss some currently available open source and commercial database options that can be used to perform such analysis tasks, and conclude that none of these options, as presently architected, match the requisite features.We thus express the need for a new DBMS, designed specifically for Ethiopian cloud computing environments.
