Quickly generating billion-record synthetic databases (original) (raw)

ACM SIGMOD Record, 1994

Abstract

Evaluating database system performance often requires generating synthetic databases - ones having certain statistical properties but filled with dummy information. When evaluating different database designs, it is often necessary to generate several databases and evaluate each design. As database sizes grow to terabytes, generation often takes longer than evaluation. This paper presents several database generation techniques. In particular it discusses:
