Performance and Scalability of Client-Server Database Architectures

Summary: Empirical evaluation of Client-Server database architectures using replication and query-result caching under varying workloads. Standard CS is outperformed by Client-Server with Multiple Disks and Enhanced Client-Server except for update-heavy workloads; up to 100 clients, MDS matches Enhanced CS, while Enhanced CS scales far better with larger client counts.
