1 Apr 2015 | | Abstract: | The wide use of XML for document management and data exchange has created the
need to query large repositories of XML data. To efficiently query such large
data collections and take advantage of parallelism, we have implemented Apache
VXQuery, an open-source scalable XQuery processor. The system builds upon two
other open-source frameworks -- Hyracks, a parallel execution engine, and
Algebricks, a language agnostic compiler toolbox. Apache VXQuery extends these
two frameworks and provides an implementation of the XQuery specifics (data
model, data-model dependent functions and optimizations, and a parser). We
describe the architecture of Apache VXQuery, its integration with Hyracks and
Algebricks, and the XQuery optimization rules applied to the query plan to
improve path expression efficiency and to enable query parallelism. An
experimental evaluation using a real 500GB dataset with various selection,
aggregation and join XML queries shows that Apache VXQuery performs well both
in terms of scale-up and speed-up. Our experiments show that it is about 3x
faster than Saxon (an open-source and commercial XQuery processor) on a 4-core,
single node implementation, and around 2.5x faster than Apache MRQL (a
MapReduce-based parallel query processor) on an eight (4-core) node cluster. | | Source: | arXiv, 1504.0331 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
