Abstract

Providing quality-of-service guarantees for data servicesin a distributed environment is a challenging task.The presence of multiple sites in distributed environmentsraises issues that are not present in centralizedsystems.The transaction workloads in distributed real-timedatabases may not be balanced and the transactionaccess patterns may be time-varying and skewed.Datareplication is an effective method to help database systemsmeet the stringent temporal requirements of real-time applications.We have designed an algorithm that providesquality-of-service guarantees for data services in distributedreal-time databases with full replication of temporaldata.The algorithm consists of heuristic feedback-basedlocal controllers and global load balancers (GLB)working at each site.The local controller controls theadmission process of incoming transactions.The globalload balancers collect the performance data from othernodes and balance the system-wide workload.The simulationresults show that the new algorithm successfullybalances the workloads in distributed real-time databasesand provides tight transaction miss ratio guarantees undervarious transaction workloads.
