According to one aspect, methods and systems are provided for selectively employing storage engines in a distributed database environment. The methods and systems can include a processor configured to execute a plurality of system components, wherein the system components comprise an operation prediction component configured to determine an expected set of operations to be performed on a portion of the database; a data format selection component configured to select, based on at least one characteristic of the expected set of operations, a data format for the portion of the database; and at least one storage engine for writing the portion of the database in the selected data format.

Distributed database systems and methods with pluggable storage engines

Systems and methods are provided to enable control and placement of data repositories. In some embodiments, the system segments data into zones. A website, for example, may need to segment data according to location. In this example, a zone may be created for North America and another zone may be created for Europe. Data related to operations executed in North America, for example, can be placed in the North America zone and data related to transactions in Europe can be placed in the Europe zone. According to some embodiments, the system may use zones to accommodate a range of deployment scenarios.
