 Introduction

Massively parallel processing distributes RAM between processors so

that it resembles a network. (Rodrigo, 2014)
Also known as loosely coupled or shared nothing. (Rodrigo, 2014)

WHAT IS IT

Massively parallel processing

(MPP) is a parallel processing design
that avoids bottlenecks on the
memory bus and does not use shared
memory. (Anónimo, 2013)
Massively parallel
processing
Characteristics

• Reduce bus traffic: since each section of

memory observes only those accesses that
are destined to it, instead of observing all the
accesses, as it happens in an SMP system.
(Rodrigo, 2014)
Massively parallel
processing
Characteristics

• Only when one processor does not have enough RAM, it uses the
remaining RAM of the other processors. (Rodrigo, 2014)

• The possibility of the process must be considered when handling

data marts or data warehouses threatens to reduce the amount of
terabytes. (Computerworld, 1997)
Massively parallel
processing
Characteristics

• It has its own operating system and its own memory, which allows
MPP nodes to process large volumes of data, albeit with a substantial
extra effort. (Computerworld, 1997)
