In-memory database management systems have the potential to reduce the execution time of complex operational analytical queries to the order of seconds while executing business transaction in parallel.
Since in-memory database utilize the server’s main memory as primary storage location, the size, cost and access speed provided by main memory components are vitally important.
With the help of data compression, today’s standard server systems comprise sufficiently large main memory volumes to accommodate the entire operation data of all companies.
Main memory, as the primary storage location is, nevertheless, becoming increasingly attractive as a result of the decreasing cost/size ratio.
The In-Memory Database (IMDB) technology has proven to have major capabilities for analyzing big enterprise and medical data, e.g., to identify relevant patient data and to protect markets from injecting pharmaceutical counterfeits.
