Abstract: A database merging apparatus includes a database pair generator that creates a database pair from a first database, a probe set generator that creates a database probe set from a second database and a comparator in communication with the database pair generator and the probe set generator. The comparator determines if the database probe set correlates to the database pair. An identifier is in communication with the comparator to identify a correlation between the database pair and the database probe set so that correlating data from the first database and the second database can be accessed if there is a correlation.
