Innovative leader of RDBMS

Tibero RDBMS opens a new paradigm for enterprise RDBMS.

Architecture
Tibero RDBMS is the standard DBMS based on the relational model. It provides consistent and efficient data processing
performance for large-scale users to simultaneously handle vast amounts of data. Its architecture has following characteristics
to efficiently respond to high-volume data processing requests:

Multi-Process, Multi-Thread based Architecture

•Minimizes context switching between processes •Rapid response to client requests
•Efficient use of limited system resources •More stable transaction performance as the number of sessions increases

Efficient synchronization between memory and disks

•Management based on Tibero System Number (TSN) •Synchronization control by a series of Check Point events
•Cache structure based on Least Recently Used (LRU) •Adjusts the Check Point cycle to minimize disk I/O

 TIBERO’s Continuous Advancements
Tibero RDBMS delivers proven performance and stability benefitting from continuous
technology development.

History
TIBERO succeeded in acquiring original technology for developing a DBMS through its engine development in 2002, and
established disk based RDBMS for the first time in Korea in 2003. For the past 9 years, the company has continually made
deep investments in research and development to ensure that its various DBMS solutions align with the requirements of
DBMS developers and administrators worldwide.

 TAC
Shared disk DB cluster technology, ensuring high availability and
high performance Tibero Active Clustering (TAC)

TMC

Next generation cluster technology, supporting data warehouse and

the cloud environment Tibero Massive Clustering (TMC)

Tibero RDBMS selectively provides the clustering architecture optimized to OLTP or

OLAP according to the purpose of Tibero RDBMS customers.

Tibero Active Clustering (TAC)

•Architecture appropriate for OLTP data processing
•Shared disk (RAID based storage)
•Sensitive to performance and stable transaction handling
•Symmetric Multi-Processing (SMP) method
•Network traffic occurrence for memory synchronization among Tibero instances

Tibero Standby Clustering (TSC)

•Architecture appropriate for OLTP data processing
•Stable transaction handling by operating a backup server without shared storage
•Shared Nothing and Log Replication
•Log based traffic occurrence because of replications from a Tibero active server to a backup server

Tibero Massive Clustering (TMC)

•Architecture appropriate for large amounts of data acceptance and high OLAP data processing performance
•Cloud data service and enterprise DW
•Shared Nothing, Tablet Distribution, and Replication
•Massive Parallel Processing (MPP) method
•Traffic occurs because of automatic distribution among Tibero instances and collection of data
replicated and processed in parallel
•Scheduled to release in the first half of 2012

Maintains high performance and accepts many CONCURRENT USERS while stably handling a
large scale session at the same time
Stably handles LARGE AMOUNT of TRANSACTIONS, without loss of performance
Provides SUPERIOR STABLILTY and AVAILABILITY so that down-time does not occur even
when a failure is experienced
Has COMPLETE COMPATIBILITY with various DBMS and applications.

Tibero RDBMS provides excellent stability to process large amounts of data used simultaneously by many users without loss
of performance. It also has complete compatibility with existing RDBMS.

Row-Level Locking Multi-Version Concurrency Control

•Processes a lock only by row to minimize the range of the lock •Avoids a lock by managing versions of DB block where data is
•Minimizes performance load by avoiding lock escalation changed at concurrently
•No interference between writing and reading operations
Partition Table •Ensures Serializable Isolation transaction Level
•Supports various partitions such as Range, Hash, List, and Com-
posite Partition Parallel Query
•Supports Global and Local Index •Rapid response by multiple threads cooperative query processing
in parallel
Standard Support •Processes a bunch of automatically organized Operation Groups
•Standard SQL support that can be executed independently in parallel
•Provides various standard interfaces
•Supports JDBC, ODBC, OLE DB, and CLI (Call Level Interface) Backup and Recovery
•Provides services without a break during backup using the
DB Link Online Backup feature
•Integrates with other vendors’ DBMS through ODBC and •Makes a specific tablespace offline and recovers the tablespace
JDBC gateways using the Online Recovery feature
•Oracle, DB2, MS SQL, and Sybase •Supports Incremental Backup to minimize backup time

Stored Procedure Compatibility Embedded SQL Compatibility

•Supports tbPSM compatible with PL / SQL syntax •Supports tbESQL compatible with Pro*C
•Can be used in Tibero without source code change •Reusable only with extension change and recompiling

Benefits
Tibero RDBMS drastically reduces TCO and rapidly migrates DB under the favor of compatibility with existing DBMS. These jobs
can be carried out by existing IT staffs without additional training.

Drastic TCO reduction DB Administrator Usability

•Max. 60% of TCO reduction compared to existing DBMS •The same operating environment as that of the existing DB
(based on 5 years) •Can be operated by existing DB administrators with minimal (4 hours)
•1 year warranty basic training
•Supports free training •Easy to secure DB administrators from already existing DB-related
human resource pool
Rapid and Convenient DB Migration
•Migration based on proven compatibility without source code
change
•Easy data migration with provided tools
•Takes about 3 months according to the range of systems
integrated and 3rd party solutions

Case Study
Tibero has more than 450 references as of July 2011. Globally, it is adopted by 14 companies such as Nomura Securities in
Japan and DSME Shandong in China. Tibero Active Clustering (TAC) has also been adopted and operated in many places such
as KT, National Agricultural Products Quality Management Service, and Yeungjin College.

•tbExport and tbImport •Supports IPv6
•tbLoader: High speed large amounts of data loading tool •Supports International and Unicode

Authentication
Tibero RDBMS ensures stability and high performance by acquiring GS authentication from the Telecommunications Technol-
ogy Association (TTA) in Korea. It also acquires OpenGIS authentication, the global standard in the Geographic Information
System (GIS) industry, from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) for the first time among domestic DBMS products.

GS Authentication (Good Software) Open Geospatial Consortium

A SW product can acquire GS authentication if it OGC is the organization leading the global standard
passes the test model based on the global standard establishment of OpenGIS. International Organiza-
and is satisfied with the authentication standard. tion for Standardization (ISO) accepted the OGC
standard as it is and published it as the international
standard.
