In this paper, we survey and classify previous approaches for checkpointing a distributed database. Checkpointing is a technique that provides fault tolerance for computing systems. This is particularly important for the long running applications that are executed in the failureprone computing systems.
This thesis also develops a communicationinduced checkpointing protocol that reduces the forced checkpoints taken compared to some existing checkpointing protocols. In our scheme, normal transactions are executed during the checkpointing process without any interruption. A distributed checkpointing and recovery protocol is proposed. Using the global checkpoints generated by the checkpointing scheme, the heterogeneous distributed database system can efficiently reconstruct the database to the most recent consistent state from media failures. We address the data distribution and architectural design issues as well as the algorithms that need to be implemented to provide the basic dbms functions such as query processing, concurrency control, reliability, and replication control. For distributed databases, checkpointing also provides an efficient way to perform global reconstruction. Distributed systems colorado state university failure. Since the need for global reconstruction is infrequent in most distributed databases. For example, a database client can disconnect from the server before checkpoint, and reconnect after resumerestart. Independent checkpointing is a simple technique for providing fault tolerance in distributed system.
