Abstract

The maintenance of materialized aggregate join views is a well-studied problem. However, to date the published literature has largely ignored the issue of concurrency control. Clearly immediate materialized view maintenance with transactional consistency, if enforced by generic concurrency control mechanisms, can result in low levels of concurrency and high rates of deadlock. While this problem is superficially amenable to well-known techniques such as fine-granularity locking and special lock modes for updates that are associative and commutative, we show that these previous techniques do not fully solve the problem. We extend previous high concurrency locking techniques to apply to materialized view maintenance, and show how this extension can be implemented even in the presence of indices on the materialized view.
