Systems and methods for database management

A computer-implemented method for reducing an amount of data stored within an enhanced database while ensuring that data remaining within the enhanced database is able to satisfy a plurality of user queries, the method implemented with a DM computing device in communication with the enhanced database and a secondary storage database, said method comprising:

• receiving a log data file identifying a number of times each data field in the enhanced database has been queried;
• ranking the data fields based on the number of times each data field has been queried;
• identifying least-queried data fields from the ranked data fields, wherein the least-queried data fields are defined by rules stored in the memory;
• storing in the secondary storage database the least-queried data fields from the enhanced database;
• and
• removing from the enhanced database the least-queried data fields.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, when executed by at least one processor, the computer-executable instructions cause the at least one processor to:

• receive a log data file identifying a number of times each data field in an enhanced database has been queried;
• rank the data fields based on the number of times each data field has been queried;
• identify least-queried data fields from the ranked data fields, wherein the least-queried data fields are defined by rules stored in a memory;
• store in a secondary storage database the least-queried data fields from the enhanced database;
• and
• remove from the enhanced database the least-queried data fields.
