H-Store

H-Store is an experimental main-memory, parallel database management system that is
optimized for on-line transaction processing (OLTP) applications. It is a highly
distributed, row-store-based relational database that runs on a cluster on
shared-nothing, main memory executor nodes.

Supported Platforms

H-Store is known to work on the following platforms.
Please note that it will not compile on 32-bit systems.

Ubuntu Linux 9.10+ (64-bit)
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 (64-bit)
Mac OS X 10.6+ (64-bit)

Dependencies

gcc +4.3 (currently does not work on gcc v5)
openjdk +1.6 (1.7 is recommended)
ant +1.7
python +2.7
openssh-server (for automatic deployment)

Quick Start

First build the entire distribution:
```
 ant build
```
Next make the project jar file for the target benchmark.
H-Store includes several benchmarks
that are built-in and ready to execute. A project jar contains all the of stored
procedures and statements for the target benchmark, as well as the cluster
configuration for the database system.
```
 export HSTORE_BENCHMARK=tm1
 ant hstore-prepare -Dproject=$HSTORE_BENCHMARK
```
You can now execute the benchmark locally on your machine with two partitions
```
 ant hstore-benchmark -Dproject=$HSTORE_BENCHMARK
```
