Hybrid Embedded-Server Database Architecture with Lock-Free Concurrency

Key Points

• The study aims to develop a hybrid database architecture that efficiently combines embedded and server modes for data access.
• Developed a hybrid database architecture allowing embedded and server modes to access the same data store.
• Implemented lock-free concurrency mechanisms including atomic state transitions and concurrent write buffering.
• Evaluated performance by analyzing access patterns in both modes without mode switching overhead.
• Eliminated mutex contention, allowing multiple concurrent access patterns.
• Demonstrated significant performance improvements over traditional embedded or server-only databases.
• Enabled efficient simultaneous operation without the need for mode switching.
