In the fast-paced world of business operations, where real-time predictability and high speed are paramount, every opportunity must be seized to enhance performance.

To complement the theoretical discussions, a short survey of six commercial systems is included: TimesTen, MySQL, VoltDB, Hekaton, HyPer/ScyPer, and SAP HANA.

By exploring these topics in depth, this book equips readers with the essential knowledge and skills needed to optimize memory management in relational databases, enabling them to build robust and high-performance systems that can handle the demands of modern business applications.
