Chapter 1.2: The Data Infrastructure
is on the ability of the system to manage almost unlimited amounts of data. Fig. 1.2.11
shows that with the infrastructure of big data, adding new data is a very easy and
streamlined thing to do.
Fig. 1.2.11 Optimal for storing massive amounts of data.
But the infrastructure behind a structured DBMS is optimized for something quite
different than managing huge amounts of data. In the case of the structured DBMS
environment, the optimization is on the ability to find any one given unit of data quickly
and efficiently.
Fig. 1.2.12 shows the optimization of the infrastructure of a standard structured DBMS.
