Abstract

Dust particles generated by comets pose hazards to satellites and spacecraft. The Institute of Space Systems specializes in predicting these dust particles to avoid these hazards. However, this requires long calculations that can take weeks or months. To speed up this calculation, this bachelor thesis has investigated several database infrastructures and created 3 prototypes(MariaDB,SQLite and PostgreSQL) to weigh which infrastructure is the most suitable. Agile software development was used to simplify the decision-making process to create these prototypes. In the end, PostgreSQL was selected as the new database infrastructure. Programs were provided to convert the data from the old infrastructure to the new infrastructure.
