Hardware acceleration of Postgres using FPGAs
postgres acceleration using FPGAs on Amazon F1
In this talk, we present a data analytics acceleration stack, using which users can easily execute their existing Postgres SQL queries on an accelerated FPGA platform. The integrated Xilinx library offloads scan and aggregate instructions from Postgres query plan to FPGA. Instruction code for the massively parallel SQL processing unit is generated on-the-fly for user query. Postgres storage pag...
