Asynchronous and Fault-Tolerant Recursive Datalog Evaluation in Shared-Nothing Engines
Summary: Asynchronous, fault-tolerant recursive Datalog evaluation in shared-nothing engines using bag-monotonic aggregates for iterative analytics. Incremental plans with multiple iteration and failure models; implemented in Myria; results show no universal winner—model choice depends on application properties.
