[MonetDB-users] XQuery API and XLink/XUpdate support
by Alexandra Mart�nez 27 Jun '24

27 Jun '24

Hello all, I was wondering if there is any documentation about the API for XQuery (i.e., how to write xqueries from a Java program). Also, I am interested in using some features of XLink and XUpdate on top of my XML database. Is support for any of these in progress? Thanks in advance, Alexandra ______________________________________________________ Click here to donate to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. http://store.yahoo.com/redcross-donate3/

[MonetDB-users] MonetDB JDBC 1.9 question
by Charalampos Nikolaou 23 Feb '12

23 Feb '12

Hi, I am getting some strange exceptions using MonetDB JDBC 1.8/1.9, and I decided to look into the code. While inspecting the code I came across these strange lines in MonetConnection.executeQuery(String[] templ, String query) method (http://dev.monetdb.org/hg/MonetDB/file/718da8ca0a1a/java/src/nl/cwi/monetdb…) In my case, these lines are executed for sure when doing a batch insert. So, suppose that the batch contains the following commands (as constructed by the MonetStatement.executeBatch()… [View More]

Hi, I'm interested in using MonetDB in my project and I'm a beginner in this topic, so I'm sorry for the silly questions that I can make. The problem is: I'm trying to install MonetDB-SQL Server in Fedora 15, but when I execute the command: yum install MonetDB-SQL-server5 MonetDB-client The output makes reference to a repository that doesn't exist: http://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/Fedora/15/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found : http://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/… [View More]

[MonetDB-users] PhD opening at CWI - Adaptive indexing techniques for modern database systems
by Stratos Idreos 23 Jun '11

23 Jun '11

Subject: Adaptive indexing techniques for modern database systems. The Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) has a full time vacancy for a talented PhD candidate in the Database Architectures group (http://www.cwi.nl/en/research-groups/Database-Architectures) The position is in the broad area of adaptive indexing techniques for modern database systems. Adaptive indexing is a major challenge in database research; it tries to completely alleviate the need for indexing and tuning steps … [View More]leading to database systems that require no physical design set-up and can cope immediately with any workload. This leads to database systems that are instantly usable and thus more applicable to numerous new applications that now consider databases too slow, too complex and too old. This position will focus specifically on adaptive indexing for extremely large databases where traditional indexing represents a major bottleneck. The Database Architectures group is one of the world-wide leading groups in system-oriented database research, e.g., it received the 10-year best paper award at VLDB 2009 for their pioneering research on hardware-aware database technology and the column-store model and the 2011 ACM SIGMOD Jim Gray Dissertation award for the database cracking work. The group has a unique methodology that combines fundamental database research with active participation of all group members in database engineering, centred around the open-source analytical database system MonetDB (http://www.monetdb.org/) An internship at one of the partnering database research labs world-wide is considered part of the PhD track. REQUIREMENTS The PhD candidates must have a master degree in computer science (or a 5 year diploma), (specialisation databases, distributed systems, software engineering) mathematics, or related fields. Preferable qualifications for candidates include proven research talent, system programming skills (C/C++), practical experience with using and implementing database systems, and software development in a team. Candidates are expected to have an excellent command of English, and good academic writing and presentation skills. CENTRUM WISKUNDE & INFORMATICA (CWI) Founded in 1946, the Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) is the national research institute for mathematics and computer science in the Netherlands. It is located at the Science Park Amsterdam and is part of the “Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research” (NWO). The institute is internationally focused and renowned for its high quality research, a substantial fraction of which is carried out in the framework of (inter)national programs. Over 160 researchers conduct pioneering research and share their acquired knowledge with society. More than 30 researchers are employed as professors at universities. The institute has generated twenty-one spin-off companies. CWI maintains excellent relations with industry and the academic world, both in the Netherlands as well as abroad. After their research careers at CWI, an increasing number of young staff members find employment in these sectors or in spin-off companies that are based on research results from CWI. Of course, library and computing facilities are first-rate. CWI's non-scientific services to its personnel include career planning, training and courses, assistance in finding housing, and tailor-made solutions to problems that may occasionally arise. TERMS AND CONDITIONS The terms of employment are in accordance with the Dutch Collective Labour Agreement for Research Institutes ("CAO-onderzoeksinstellingen"). Moreover CWI offers attractive working conditions, including flexible scheduling and help with housing for expat employees. The gross monthly salary, for an employee on a full time basis, is €2,037 during the first year and increases to €2,610 over a four year period. CWI also offers excellent and flexible terms of employment, including an employee pension fund. INFORMATION Additional information can be obtained from: dr. Stratos Idreos, email stratos.idreos(a)cwi.nl, telephone +31(0)20 592 4169. or dr. Stefan Manegold, email stefan.manegold(a)cwi.nl, telephone +31(0)20 592 4212, or prof. dr. Martin Kersten, email martin.kersten(a)cwi.nl, telephone +31(0)20 592 4066. APPLICATION Please send your application before 31 July 2011 to: pd(a)cwi.nl. Applications should include a detailed CV, a motivation letter, a list of your M.SC. courses and grades, a copy of your master thesis, and preferably a list of publications. [View Less]

[MonetDB-users] Stored procedures
by Michael Kusber 19 Jun '11

Hi, is it possible to achieve the following using SQL stored procedures à la "CREATE PROCEDURE XYZ"? I want to write a function that iterates over a table and adds 2 on a certain attribute. i am realizing that i could do this by an UPDATE, but I wanted to see, whether it would be executed more parallel inside a stored procedure. Is there a way of formulating this in a procedure? do i need to define a function in MAL? would this result in more parallel execution? thanks, michael

Hi All, I am going to build a DW based on MonetDB. After check on the internet I found that MonetDB does not do data compression. Same data set in MonetDb is much bigger than MySQL and infoBright. Are there any plan to do data compression in the MonetDB? Yours sincerely, Ken Cheng
