Abstract: A database proxy includes a computing device and a hardware-accelerated database proxy module. The computing device includes one or more processors, memory, a first bus interface, and a network interface coupling the database proxy to one or more networks. The database proxy module includes a second bus interface coupled to the first bus interface via one or more buses, and a request processor. The database proxy is configured to receive a database read request from a client via the one or more networks and the network interface; forward the database read request to the request processor using the one or more buses; process, using the request processor, the database read request; and return results of the database read request to the client. In some embodiments, the computing device or the database proxy module further includes a flash memory interface for accessing one or more flash memory devices.

Abstract: A database proxy includes a request processor, a cache, a database plugin, and interfaces for coupling the database proxy client devices, other database proxies, and database servers. The request processor is configured to receive a read request from a client, determine whether the read request is assigned to the database proxy, and return results of the read request to the client. When the read request is not assigned to the database proxy, the read request is forwarded to another database proxy. When the read request is assigned to the database proxy, the read request is processed using data stored in the cache when the results are stored in the cache or forwarded to the database plugin, which forwards the read request to a database server, receives the results from the database server, and returns the results to the request processor for storage in the cache.
