Abstract
A system and method for hierarchical database operation accelerator for scaling a single node database with a plurality of accelerator cards is provided, including: a host, receiving a query plan, generating a corresponding query operation and distributing them, receiving and processing aggregated execution results; a hierarchy accelerator module, which is connected to the host, receiving the query operation distributed and returning the aggregated execution results; the hierarchy accelerator module comprises a master accelerator card and at least one slave accelerator card, the slave accelerator card returns the execution results to the master accelerator card, by the master accelerator card completes the subsequent query operation which is aggregated and assigned by the execution results, returning the aggregated execution results to the host; the accelerator system having a multi-level storage architecture of accelerator chip on-chip cache, the accelerator card memory, the accelerator card storage, and the host-side storage.
