INTRA-BLOCK PARTITIONING FOR DATABASE MANAGEMENT

摘要

A method for storing database information includes storing a table having data values in a column major order. The data values are stored in a list of blocks. The method also includes assigning a tuple sequence number (TSN) to each data value in each column of the table according to a sequence order in the table. The data values that correspond to each other across a plurality of columns of the table have equivalent TSNs. The method also includes assigning each data value to a partition based on a representation of the data value. The method also includes assigning a tuple map value to each data value. The tuple map value identifies the partition in which each data value is located.
