Title
Efficient processing of complex highly selective queries over large datasets: There and back again
Abstract
Modern so-called big data systems have popularised the idea of massively parallel access and processing of large data sets over distributed infrastructures, and have dominated the (big) data storage/processing scene over the last 15 years. Whereas these paradigms are not without merit, they typically fail to deliver on their promises when processing highly selective complex queries. In these cases, the key to efficient and timely query processing, is the ability to quickly identify data items of interest while filtering out those that would not contribute to the final result, thus reducing storage, network and processing overheads. This talk will explore a number of such queries over a multitude of data types, examine the issues arising during their processing, and describe novel semi-centralised but scalable methods which manage to clearly outperform the state of the art (often by orders of magnitude).
