Index Selection for NoSQL Database with Deep Reinforcement Learning

Abstract

We propose a new approach of NoSQL database index selection. For different workloads, we select different indexes and their different parameters to optimize the database performance. The approach builds a deep reinforcement learning model to select an optimal index for a given fixed workload and adapts to a changing workload. Experimental results show that, Deep Reinforcement Learning Index Selection Approach (DRLISA) has improved performance to varying degrees according to traditional single index structures.
