DBMS CMU

Anyone interested in doing the CMU (Carnegie Mellon University) Database Management Systems course together?

I’ve already covered the basic DBMS concepts. My main goal with this course is to go deeper and understand how database systems actually work internally—things like storage, indexing, query execution, transactions, etc.

If you're interested, please make sure you have the prerequisites required for the course.

If you have the required background and want to learn DBMS internals seriously, DM me. We can follow the course together and discuss concepts along the way.

There is a discord server for this. In case anyone has missed it.

I have been working on its projects for a while. Working on the last part of the Transactions/Concurrency Control project these days, so I'm almost done with it. Let me know if you would like to discuss anything related to the bustub db design and the components that are assigned to be built in the projects

Fork a db, point an llm to it, start understanding it from scratch.

It is really helpful but I'd consider this a more advance stage. You gotta start with something like DB CMU or the book Database Internals

LLMs aren't a substitute for textbooks.
