Hotmapper was created by C3SL
|
|
|
([github group page](https://github.com/C3SL), [about in portuguese](https://www.c3sl.ufpr.br/c3sl/)) to be used in
|
|
|
the insertion of data about the brazilian education from INEP to be used in the projects
|
|
|
SimCAQ ([about in portuguese](https://simcaq.c3sl.ufpr.br/about)) and
|
|
|
LDE ([about in portuguese](https://dadoseducacionais.c3sl.ufpr.br/#/sobre)). In the start of those projects was made a
|
|
|
series of tests to decide which database to use, with the prerequisite that it needed to be open source. The decision
|
|
|
ended between PostgreSQL and MonetDB. MonetDB ended being chosen after some test queries measuring the execution time
|
|
|
between databases were MonetDB performed better.
|
|
|
|
|
|
We pretend to expand HOTMapper support to other databases with PostgreSQL being the next. |
