Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for storing an object onto a first or second page. An embodiment operates by receiving the object and determining that the first page has sufficient unused space for storing at least one byte of the object. Thereafter, a data block of the object is created to comprise at least one byte of the object. The data block is then stored on the first page or the second page, and a location of the object's first data block is recorded. Thereafter, a pointer corresponding to the location of the object's first data block for loading the object is provided.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method for storing a data object, comprising:
- receiving the data object, wherein the data object comprises one or more bytes;
- determining that a page of an on-disk store of a database has sufficient unused space for storing a subset of bytes of the data object, wherein the subset of bytes includes a first byte of the one or more bytes;
- creating a data block of the data object to store the subset of bytes;
- storing the data block in the page of the on-disk store;
- determining a location of the data block stored in the page of the on-disk store;
- and
- generating a pointer corresponding to the location of the data block, wherein the pointer is used as a key to access the data object.
A system, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
- receive a data object, wherein the data object comprises one or more bytes;
- determine that a page of an on-disk store of a database has sufficient unused space for storing a subset of bytes of the data object, wherein the subset of bytes includes a first byte of the one or more bytes;
- create a data block of the data object to store the subset of bytes;
- store the data block in the page of the on-disk store;
- determine a location of the data block stored in the page of the on-disk store;
- and
- generate a pointer corresponding to the location of the data block, wherein the pointer is used as a key to access the data object.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a data object, wherein the data object comprises one or more bytes;
- determining that a page of an on-disk store of a database has sufficient unused space for storing a subset of bytes of the data object, wherein the subset of bytes includes a first byte of the one or more bytes;
- creating a data block of the data object to store the subset of bytes;
- storing the data block in the page of the on-disk store;
- determining a location of the data block stored in the page of the on-disk store;
- and
- generating a pointer corresponding to the location of the data block, wherein the pointer is used as a key to access the data object.
