Future of Database
Core "database" goals:
- deal with very large amounts of data (petabyes, exabytes, ...)
- very-high-level languages (deal with data in uniform ways)
- fast query execution (evaluation too slow ⇒ useless)
At the moment (and for the last 30 years) RDBMSs dominate ...
- simple/clean data model, backed up by theory
- high-level language for accessing data
- 40 years development work on RDBMS engine technology
RDBMSs work well in domains with uniform, structured data.
