About this book

The efficient management of a consistent and integrated database is a central task in modern IT and highly relevant for science and industry. Hardly any critical enterprise solution comes without any functionality for managing data in its different forms.

Web-Scale Data Management for the Cloud addresses fundamental challenges posed by the need and desire to provide database functionality in the context of the Database as a Service (DBaaS) paradigm for database outsourcing. This book also discusses the motivation of the new paradigm of cloud computing, and its impact to data outsourcing and service-oriented computing in data-intensive applications. Techniques with respect to the support in the current cloud environments, major challenges, and future trends are covered in the last section of this book. A survey addressing the techniques and special requirements for building database services are provided in this book as well.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“The authors of this book offer the perfect guide for anyone who wants to understand more about using the cloud for data management, including what to consider when making the decision. The book is well organized and very precisely formulated, and gives the reader a good understanding of the big picture, including the underlying details that motivate the various alternative design choices and their possible consequences.” (Aake Edlund, Computing Reviews, September, 2013)
