  • Methods for intra-partition parallelism for inserts
    Patent number: 6687798
    Abstract: Methods of inserting data in parallel into a partitioned data storage object are disclosed. Multiple processes are used to insert the data, and multiple processes may insert data into the same partition at the same time. Write conflicts are avoided through use of buffers and a brokering scheme to manage the data flows into the partitioned data storage object. Also disclosed are methods to optimize the size of the buffers to minimize bottlenecks.
