In this paper, we propose an extensible architecture for database engines where satellite
databases are used to scale out and implement additional functionality for a centralized
database engine. The architecture uses a middleware layer that offers consistent views and
a single system image over a cluster of machines with database engines. One of these
engines acts as a master copy while the others are read-only snapshots which we call
satellites. The satellites are lightweight DBMSs used for scalability and to provide …
