Definitions

Hybrid transactional and analytical processing (HTAP) refers to system architectures and techniques that enable modern database management systems (DBMS) to perform real-time analytics on data that is ingested and modified in the transactional database engine. It is a term that was originally coined by Gartner where Pezzini et al. (2014) highlight the need of enterprises to close the gap between analytics and action for better business agility and trend awareness.

Overview

The goal of running transactions and analytics on the same data has been around for decades, but has not fully been realized due to technology limitations. Today, businesses can no longer afford to miss the real-time insights from data that is in their transactional system as they may lose competitive edge unless business decisions are made on latest data Footnote 1 or fresh data Footnote 2.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Analytics on latest data implies allowing the query to run on any desired level of isolations including dirty read, committed read, snapshot read, repeatable read, or serializable.

  2. 2.

    Analytics on fresh data implies running queries on a recent snapshot of data that may not necessarily be the latest possible snapshot when the query execution began or a consistent snapshot.
