Database system for marking codes for liquid food packages

A database system, comprising:

• an input sub-system configured to receive marking codes corresponding to data carriers on packages for liquid food, the respective marking code comprising package production data which uniquely identifies production of an individual package;
• a plurality of code databases configured to store the marking codes, wherein a respective code database among the plurality of code databases is configured to store a respective subset of the marking codes associated with the packages for liquid food;
• and
• a set of resource locators, wherein a respective resource locator in the set of resource locators is configured to:
• receive a current marking code from the input sub-system,
• extract the package production data from the current marking code,
• select a current code database among a subset of the plurality of code databases based on the package production data in order to minimize latency, wherein databases within the subset of the plurality of code databases store the current marking code, and
• re-direct the current marking code to the current code database.
