Performing an operation directly on data stored in a database table provides for avoiding generation and processing of SQL statements. A Data Layer interface, comprising a set of APIs, allows internal database server components to call directly to the Data Layer for making fast row changes to a table. According to an embodiment, before making any row change to a table through this Data Layer interface, a shared state data structure is created to hold the metadata about the table. A single shared state can be used for all DML changes to a particular table regardless of what columns are updated or inserted during each DML operation. When a process needs to change a row, the process uses a mutable state based on the shared state of the table.
