Abstract

Database Management Systems (DBMSs) that can be tailored to specific requirements offer the potential to improve reliability and maintainability and simultaneously the ability to reduce the footprint of the code base. If the requirements of an application change during runtime the DBMS should be adapted without a shutdown. Runtime-adaptation is a new and promising research direction to dynamically change the behavior of a DBMS. Especially the adaptation of the Transaction Manager (TM) states a challenge. In this paper, we present the session semantics of a runtime-adaptable TM. We define preliminaries and assumptions to activate the TM during sessions from a conceptual point of view. The advantages and disadvanteges of different approaches are discussed, especially regarding the occurence of ANSI SQL phenomena. From a technical point of view, we define requirements for the architecture of the TM and the DBMS that arose in our prototype. Copyright ©2009 ACM.
