Abstract

Traditional web database cache techniques have a major disadvantage, namely poor data freshness, because they employ an asynchronous data refresh strategy. A novel web database cache, DB Facade, is proposed in this paper. DB Facade uses a main memory database to cache result sets of previous queries for subsequent reusing. Updates on backend database system are managed by delta tables, and then propagated to web database cache in a near real-time manner, hence guarantee the freshness of data. DB Facade offloads query burden from backend database systems, and exploits the power of main memory database system to boost query performance. TPC-W testing result shows that the system’s performance increases by about 17 percent.
