This paper describes the SkyServer goals and archi-tecture. It also describes our experience operating the SkyServer on the Internet. The SDSS data is public and well-documented so it makes a good test platform for research on database algorithms and performance.12 pages, original word document at http://research.microsoft.com/~gray/Papers/MSR_TR_01_104_SkyServer.docDigital LibrariesDatabasesH.3.7; H.3.5;H.2; H.3; H.4; H.5text
