The document discusses the deployment and functioning of SQL Server on Linux, covering installation prerequisites, system architecture, and management strategies. It explores key concepts such as user-mode scheduling, the evolution of SQL OS, and the integration of Docker containers with SQL Server. Additionally, it highlights various projects and research initiatives aimed at improving system performance and security, including the concept of a library operating system.

9. História do SQL OS
User Mode Scheduling (UMS)
SQL OS
Inside the SQL Server 2000 User Mode Scheduler
Between versions 6.5 and 7.0, however, it became evident that SQL Server was
beginning to hit a "scalability ceiling." Its ability to handle thousands of concurrent
users and efficiently scale on systems with more than four processors was
hampered by the fact that the Windows scheduler treated SQL Server like any
other application

10. Gerenciamento de Recursos
Free Memory = Bom ou Ruim?
SQL 2000 (pre-SP3):
if ( GetAvailableMemoryMB() < 4 )
...

Rethinking the Library OS from the Top Down (2011)
This paper revisits an old approach to operating system construction, the library OS, in a new context. The
idea of the library OS is that the personality of the OS on which an application depends runs in the address
space of the application. A small, fixed set of abstractions connects the library OS to the host OS kernel,
offering the promise of better system security and more rapid independent evolution of OS components.
We describe a working prototype of a Windows 7 library OS that runs the latest releases of major
applications such as Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Internet Explorer.
