Workshop-Advanced Databases (NoSQL, MemSQL, and Teradata)
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering organized a one-day workshop on “Advanced Databases (NoSQL, MemSQL, and Teradata).” on December 10, 2024. The workshop led by Ms. Neha Sexena, Insights Analytics Manager at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, aimed to enhance participants’ skills in managing large datasets and covered benchmarks on NoSQL (MongoDB vs. Redis) compared to MemSQL for transactional workloads and Teradata’s performance for analytical queries against MemSQL for real-time analytics. It examined data modelling approaches, simulated large data loads, and assessed database performance under high concurrency. Through hands-on sessions, participants learned to choose suitable database technologies for various scenarios and explored tools like SQL clients and command-line tools. The workshop, led by Ms. Neha Sexena, provided practical experience and highlighted best practices in database administration, performance tuning, and real-time analytics.
