Abstract: Improved systems and methods for database management using data normalization and defragmentation techniques are provided. At least one exchange processor in communication with an exchange computer system receives market data from the exchange computer system, processes the market information, and transmits the market data to a master processor. The master processor receives the market data, processes the data using at least one normalization process to generate normalized data including an intra-day file and an archival file, and stores the intra-day file and the archival file in the master database. The master processor transmits the intra-day file and the archival file to the at least one regional processor.
