Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

6. No standard query language for querying MOLAP
- No SQL !
Vendors provide proprietary languages allowing business users to
create queries that involve pivots, drilling down, or rolling up.
- E.g. MDX of Microsoft
- Languages generally involve extensive visual (click and drag) support.
- Application Programming Interface (API)’s also provided for probing the
cubes.
MOLAP Implementations
7. Need to consider both maintenance and storage implications
when designing strategy for when to build cubes.
Maintenance Considerations: Every data item received into
MDD must be aggregated into every cube (assuming “to-date”
summaries are maintained).
Storage Considerations: Although cubes get much smaller
(e.g., more dense) as dimensions get less detailed (e.g., year
vs. day), storage implications for building hundreds of cubes
can be significant.
MOLAP Implementations
8. Virtual cubes are used when there is a need to join information from
two dissimilar cubes that share one or more common dimensions.
Similar to a relational view; two (or more) cubes are linked along
common dimension (s).
Often used to save space by eliminating redundant storage of
information.
Example: Build a list price cube that can be used to compute
discounts given across many stores in a retail chain without
redundant storage of the list price data through use of a virtual
cube.
Virtual Cubes
9. Typically outperform relational database technology because all answers
are pre-computed into cubes.
Difficult to scale because of combinatorial explosion in the number and
size of cubes when dimensions of significant cardinality are required.
Beyond tens (sometimes small hundreds) of thousands of entries in a
single dimension will break the MOLAP model because the pre-
computed cube model does not work well when the cubes are very
sparse in the population of individual cells.

MOLAP Implementations
11. Advances in database technologies and front-end tools have begun to
allow deployment of OLAP usingANSI SQL RDBMS implementations.
ROLAP facilitates deployment of much larger dimension tables than
MOLAP implementations.
Front-end tools to facilitate GUI access to multi-dimensional analysis
capabilities.
Aggregate awareness allows exploitation of pre-built summary tables for
some front-end tools.
Star schema designs are often used to facilitate OLAP against relational
databases.

13. Issue of scalability i.e. curse of dimensionality for MOLAP
Deployment of significantly large dimension tables as compared to
MOLAP using secondary storage.
Aggregate awareness allows using pre-built summary tables by some
front-end tools.
Star schema designs usually used to facilitate ROLAP querying (in
next lecture).
Why ROLAP?
14. OLAP data is stored in a relational database (e.g. a star
schema)
The fact table is a way of visualizing as a “un-rolled” cube.
So where is the cube?
It’s a matter of perception
Visualize the fact table as an elementary cube.

15. Cube is a logical entity containing values of a certain fact at a
certain aggregation level at an intersection of a combination of
dimensions.
The following table can be created using 3 queries
How to Create Cube in ROLAP?

(Sales_Amt)

Total
Month_ID
Product_ID
16. For the table entries, without the totals
SELECT S.Month_Id, S.Product_Id,
SUM(S.Sales_Amt)
FROM Sales
GROUP BY S.Month_Id, S.Product_Id;
For the row totals
SELECT S.Product_Id, SUM (Sales_Amt)
FROM Sales
GROUP BY S.Product_Id;
For the column totals
SELECT S.Month_Id, SUM (Sales)
FROM Sales
GROUP BY S.Month_Id;
How to Create Cube in ROLAP using
SQL?
17. Number of required queries increases exponentially with the
increase in number of dimensions.
Its wasteful to compute all queries.
In the example, the first query can do most of the work of the other
two queries
If we could save that result and aggregate over Month_Id and
Product_Id, we could compute the other queries more efficiently
Problem with Simple Approach
18. The CUBE clause is part of SQL:1999
GROUP BY CUBE (v1, v2, …, vn)
Equivalent to a collection of GROUP BYs, one for each of the
subsets of v1, v2, …, vn
