A platform for massive railway information data storage

Abstract

With the development of national large-scale railway construction, massive railway information data emerge rapidly, and then how to store and manage these data effectively becomes very significant. This paper puts forward a method based on distributed computing technology to store and manage massive railway information data, builds massive railway information data storage platform by using the Linux cluster technology. This system consists of three levels including data access layer, data management layer, application interface layer, enjoying safety and reliability, low operation cost, fast processing speed, easy expansibility characteristics, which shall satisfy the massive railway information data storage requirement. © Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014.
