@article{alsubaiee2012asterix, abstract = {At UC Irvine, we are building a next generation parallel database system, called ASTERIX, as our approach to addressing today's "Big Data" management challenges. ASTERIX aims to combine time-tested principles from parallel database systems with those of the Web-scale computing community, such as fault tolerance for long running jobs. In this demo, we present a whirlwind tour of ASTERIX, highlighting a few of its key features. We will demonstrate examples of our data definition language to model semi-structured data, and examples of interesting queries using our declarative query language. In particular, we will show the capabilities of ASTERIX for answering geo-spatial queries and fuzzy queries, as well as ASTERIX' data feed construct for continuously ingesting data.}, acmid = {2367532}, author = {Alsubaiee, Sattam and Altowim, Yasser and Altwaijry, Hotham and Behm, Alexander and Borkar, Vinayak and Bu, Yingyi and Carey, Michael and Grover, Raman and Heilbron, Zachary and Kim, Young-Seok and Li, Chen and Onose, Nicola and Pirzadeh, Pouria and Vernica, Rares and Wen, Jian}, interhash = {ae521b66302adb1b7df3f4cdb8d92181}, intrahash = {003f2654ae41861cfb77bf0353634ac3}, issn = {2150-8097}, issue_date = {August 2012}, journal = {Proceedings of the VLDB Endowment}, month = aug, number = 12, numpages = {4}, pages = {1898--1901}, publisher = {VLDB Endowment}, title = {ASTERIX: an open source system for "Big Data" management and analysis (demo)}, url = {http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2367502.2367532}, volume = 5, year = 2012 }
