• Prof. Dr. Thomas Neumann
• Adrian Riedl, M.Sc.
• Stefan Lehner, M.Sc.

Content

• This lecture covers the implementation of database systems, including how to leverage modern hardware architectures.
• The lectures are held in English.
• In the Exercises for this lecture, you will have the chance to build a tiny database system from scratch.
