Abstract :
The authors describe how the NonStop SQL relational database management system has implemented parallelism in the areas of query support, index maintenance, and database utilities, to provide higher levels of performance. The authors demonstrated that the use of parallelism significantly improves the response time for query processing, as well as for utility operations
