 4JLw\n\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containin
 g information about joining the webinar.\n\nIndicate on the registration fo
 rm if you plan to attend in person. This will help us determine whether the
  room is close to reaching capacity.\n\nWe may make some auxiliary material
  such as slides and access to the recording available after the seminar to 
 people who have registered.\n\n Abstract:\n\nFor the last three years\, a t
 eam of us at MIT\, Stanford\, CMU\, Google and VMware have built a new oper
 ating system stack\, based on a high-performance distributed DBMS. In other
  words\, all OS state (files\, messages\, scheduling information\, etc.) is
  stored in the DBMS and all OS services are written in SQL plus stored proc
 edures. At the present time\, we have a secured venture capital funding and
  are about to release a commercial open source version. In this talk\, I re
 port on aspects of our system\, including:\n\nPerformance: DBOS is competit
 ive with the state of the art concerning file system performance\, message 
 performance and scheduling performance. All of these are implemented in SQL
 .\n\nProvenance: Because all OS state is in DBMS tables\, DBOS change captu
 re moves all state to a warehouse DBMS (currently Vertica or Redshift) with
  a runtime overhead of about 5%. In this case\, security queries (e.g. look
 ing for outliers) supporting the “right to be forgotten” in GDPR-style syst
 ems and other provenance operations can be coded in SQL. Experiments with a
  current security product show that DBOS can both capture provenance data a
 nd query it with higher performance.\n\nServerless environment: We have wri
 tten a Java serverless environment on top of DBOS. It is an order of magnit
 ude faster than current systems (AWS Lambda\, Open Whisk) because it co-loc
 ates computation and data whenever possible. Also\, provenance facilitates 
 a novel time-travel debugger.\n\nEarly enterprise usage: I will report on e
 arly DBOS usage in enterprise environments at three large enterprises.\n\nC
 ommercialization changes to DBOS: These include moving to TypeScript and op
 en source DBMSs.\n\nBio:\n\nDr. Stonebraker has been a pioneer of data base
  research and technology for more than forty years. He was the main archite
 ct of the INGRES relational DBMS\, and the object-relational DBMS\, POSTGRE
 S. These prototypes were developed at the University of California at Berke
 ley where Stonebraker was a Professor of Computer Science for twenty-five y
 ears. More recently at M.I.T. he was the co-architect of the C-Store column
 - oriented DBMS\, the H-Store transaction processing engine\, the Data Tame
 r data integration system\, the SciDB array processing engine\, the Kyrix v
 isualization system and the operating system DBOS. He is the founder of ten
  venture-capital backed startups which have commercialized his prototypes.\
 n\nProfessor Stonebraker is the author of scores of research papers on data
  base technology\, operating systems and the architecture of system softwar
 e services. He was awarded the ACM System Software Award in 1992\, for his 
 work on INGRES. Additionally\, he was awarded the first annual Innovation a
 ward by the ACM SIGMOD special interest group in 1994 and was elected to th
 e National Academy of Engineering in 1997. He was awarded the IEEE John Von
  Neumann award in 2005\, and the ACM Turing Award in 2014. Presently he is 
 an Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at M.I.T.\, where he is working on
  a variety of future-generation data-oriented projects.\n\nThis joint meeti
 ng of the Boston Chapter of the IEEE Computer Society and GBC/ACM will be h
 ybrid (in person and online)\, part of getting back to normal after the COV
 ID-19 lockdown.\n\nUp-to-date information about this and other talks is ava
