| Abstract: |
The article discusses the sqlLoader pipeline, a tool that automates the loading of multiterabyte data into the database management system (DBMS) of the Sloan Digital Sky Server. Data-loading is will become a critical and time-consuming task as data volumes consume several terabytes. The authors developed the sqlLoader that automates the process, breaking it down into segments and letting those that can run in parallel do so. |
