SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DURABLE DATABASE OPERATIONS IN A MEMORY-MAPPED ENVIRONMENT

A durable memory-mapped database system includes a first memory-mapped view of a database, a second memory-mapped view of the database, a journal buffer and a journal. The first memory-mapped view of the database is a protected view and includes copies of a plurality of datafiles from the database. The second memory-mapped view of the database is a write view and includes copies of the plurality of datafiles. The journal buffer is a buffer in random access memory configured to record datafile updates. The journal is configured to periodically receive recorded datafile updates from the journal buffer.
