I personally built quite several specialized hyper-performant DB engines, and studied most popular OSS projects, and believe most DB questions are theoretically answered long ago(decade back). The puzzle is mostly to assemble pieces together to fit specific tradeoff of performance/simplicity/functionality and not overengineer system.
- kirugan 2mo agoWhat is the best resource for finding good academic papers on databases that are actually practical to implement?
- andriy_koval 2mo agoI prefer to not study databases through academic papers, I think major OSS projects(PG, Cassandra, RockDb, duckdb, ClickHouse, etc) have all/most important data structures and algorithms implemented and described way better.
