With the rapid growth of the size of the data stored in the cloud systems, the need for
effective data processing becomes critical and urgent. This research introduces a study of
the most important characteristics of databases management systems: H
ive, SQLMR, and
MariaDB Galera. Hive is a cloud database management system. SQLMR is a hybrid
system, which depends on the integration between the cloud and traditional systems
capabilities. While MariaDB Galera is a traditional database management system
developed to cope with the cloud characteristics. In this research, we show the most
important developments that have been on those systems, and then we compare their
performance in data processing based on the execution time of query operations with the
change of the volume of data. That is to identify the performance of those systems
practically and to know the developing requirements for access to optimized data
management system, and to help users in the selection of the database system that achieves
their requirements in terms of availability and scalability.
