BIB-VERSION:: CS-TR-v2.0 ID:: UCB//S2K-93-23 ENTRY:: February 25, 1994 TITLE:: The Sequoia 2000 Architecture and Implementation Strategy DATE:: AUTHOR:: Stonebraker, Michael AUTHOR:: Frew, James AUTHOR:: Dozier, Jeff PAGES:: 47 ABSTRACT:: This paper describes the Sequoia 2000 software architecture and its current implementations, including layers for Footprint, the file system, the DBMS, application, and the network. Early prototype applications of this software include a Global Change data schema, GCM integration, remote sensing, a data system for climate studies, and operational uses by the DWR. Longer-range efforts include transfer protocols for moving elements of the database, controllers for secondary and tertiary storage, distributed file system, and a distributed DBMS. The implementation plan ensures that the current architecture is stabilized and robust by the end of 1993. RETRIEVAL:: postscript (in all.ps) END:: UCB//S2K-93-23
