System and method for implementing nested relationships within a schemaless database

摘要

A system for nested relationships from a schemaless database, comprising a client running an application which generates database access requests over a public or private network, a load balancer running an application which distributes the incoming database access requests from the clients across one or more API servers, and a load balancer running an application which distributes incoming database access requests from the one or more API servers across one or more database servers. The database servers implementing one or more schemaless databases across which one or more database models are distributed and the one or more API servers implementing for accessing the one or more database servers in a manner which implements nested relationships within the one or more schemaless databases in response to the incoming database requests from the load balancer.

1. A method of writing a document with nested relationships to a schemaless database, the steps including:
receiving a document creation request that includes document data and a document path; partitioning the received document path into individual segments separated by a delimiter, the individual segments including collection segments and document identification string segments; determining the target collection by identifying the individual segment that is the penultimate segment of the retrieved document path; writing the document data to the target collection on the database using the received document path in full as the document's actual database identification; and writing an additional ID field to the saved document data, the additional ID field containing the document's original actual database identification.
