Abstract

In spite of the rapid decrease in magnetic disk prices, tertiary storage (i.e., removable media in a robotic storage library) is becoming increasingly popular. The fact that so much data can be stored encourages applications that use ever more massive data sets. Application drivers include multimedia databases, data warehouses, scientific databases, and digital libraries and archives. The database research community has responded with investigations into systems integration, performance modeling, and performance optimization.

Tertiary storage systems present special challenges because of their unusual performance characteristics. Access latencies can range into minutes even on unloaded systems, but transfer rates can be very high. Tertiary storage is implemented with a wide array of technologies, each with its own performance quirks. However, little detailed performance information about tertiary storage devices has been published. In this paper we present detailed measurements of several tape drives and robotic storage libraries. Thetape drives we measure include the DLT 4000, DLT 7000, Ampex 310, IBM 3590, 4mm DAT, and the Sony DTF drive. This mixture of equipment includes highand low performance drives, serpentine and helical scan drives, and cartridge and cassette tapes. The detailed measurements of different aspects of tertiary storage system performance provides an understanding of the issues related to integrating tape- based tertiary storage with a DBMS.
