Data Store and Characteristics in Column and Row Store

Column Storestores tables by column

Row Storestores tables by row

Calculations are typically executed on single or few columns only.

The table is searched based on values of a few columns.

The table has a big number of columns.

The table has a big number of rows and columnar operations are required (aggregate, scan, etc.).

High compression rates can be achieved because the majority of the columns contain only few distinct values (compared to number of rows).

This is typical for OLAP workloads.

The application needs to process only one single record at one time (many selects and /or updates of single records).

The application typically needs to access the complete record and the columns contain mainly distinct values so compression rate would be low.

Neither aggregations nor fast searching are required

The table has a small number of rows (for example configuration tables).

This is typical for OLTP workloads.

SAP HANA DB Architecture

The SAP HANA DB consists of:

Several In-memory stores One row store

One or more column stores

A persistence layer with Data

SQL data and undo log information

Additional HANA information, such as modeling data

Log:

Information about data changes (redo log)

Directly saved to persistent storage when transaction is committed

Cyclical overwrite (only after backup)

A global transaction manager

How does IBM make sure that the data are written in a fastand reliable manner to the disks?

The SAP HANA database holds the bulk of its datain memory for maximum performancebut still uses persistent storage to provide a fallback in case of failure.
