Abstract

En 中文
To obtain a high level of system performance, a database administrator (DBA) must choose a set of indices that is appropriate for the workload. The system can aid in this challenging task by providing recommendations for the index configuration. We propose a new index recommendation technique, termed semi-automatic tuning, that keeps the DBA "in the loop" by generating recommendations that use feedback about the DBA's preferences. The technique also works online, which avoids the limitations of commercial tools that require the workload to be known in advance. The foundation of our approach is the Work Function Algorithm, which can solve a wide variety of online optimization problems with strong competitive guarantees. We present an experimental analysis that validates the benefits of semi-automatic tuning in a wide variety of conditions.
