<p>The present invention realizes a method of managing a database capable of hierarchically building master nodes, and efficiently performing the update of the database even in cases where one transaction updates a plurality of tables. A lower-level master node sends, to a higher-level master node, a table-based write set as a bundle of combinations of a shadow copy of the database and a heap tuple map expanded in a memory, and the higher-level master node that received the write set verifies whether the update has already been executed and sends the record of this update to the lower-level master node as a transaction log including a table number, whereby the database can be updated efficiently and consistently from the lower-level master node to the higher-level master node, and from the higher-level master node to the lower-level master node under its control.</p> |
