Some Trends in Data Management and Processing

Some Trends in Data Management and Processing

(a) Processing data locally before moving

To minimize data movement seems to be a future technology direction. Processing the data where data resides and then sending out processed data may reduce use of bandwidth and also may enhance latency.   Some platforms and applications may already been using this concept but now it is being used in wider range of applications. Active storage networks,  databases, IOT platforms are some of the new areas where it is seeing its application.

(b) Micro Databases 

Storage and databases optimised for specific data may be another direction.  IOT  databases gives a hint in that direction.  These optimised databases may have higher latency while loading but later, can give better query performance and processing can be faster. 

(c) Data coupled with Micro-Service

Core OS and other similar OS are driving development of applications based on micro service leading to distributed applications. A database based on micro service architecture may provide great advantage for such applications. Micro service coupled with its own micro database can be a great source of enhanced performance of such applications.
