A very large database, or VLDB, is a database that contains an extremely high number of tuples (database rows), or occupies an extremely large physical filesystem storage space. The most common definition of VLDB is a database that occupies more than 1 terabyte or contains several billion rows, although naturally this definition changes over time.
In database research, VLDB commonly refers to the non-profit VLDB Endowment and its annual research conference, International Conference on Very Large Data Bases. The mission of VLDB is to promote and exchange scholarly work in databases and related fields throughout the world. The VLDB conference began in 1975 and is closely associated with SIGMOD and SIGKDD. Acceptance rate of VLDB, averaged from 1993 to 2007, is 16%[1] and the rate for the Core Database Technology track in VLDB 2009 is 16.7%[2].
