Overview:

This paper examines the problem of how to give hands-on assignments in a database system internals course. The author argues that current approaches are inadequate, either because they are not sufficiently comprehensive or because they require using software that has a steep learning curve. The paper then describes SimpleDB, which is software written expressly for such a course. SimpleDB is a database system in the spirit of Minibase. Unlike Minibase, however, it supports multiple users and transactions via JDBC, and its code is easy to read and modify. The paper then describes a course that is taught using SimpleDB, and discuses the educational benefits resulting from it.
