理解MPP(Massively Parallel Processing) in database

• Overview

  While storage and computing power have come long a way in the last several decades, the unfortunate reality is that they haven’t kept up with modern data storage and analysis needs.

  MPP databases solve this problem by allotting the required processing power onto several different nodes to most efficiently analyze large datasets.

  MPP databases are usually columar, which allows analytical queries to be processed faster;

• Massively Parallel

  Massively parallel is the term for using a large number of computer processors (or separate computers) to simultaneously ferform a set of coordinated computations in paralle.
