  • Partitioning a database keyed with variable length keys
    Patent number: 7212817
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for a database are provided. One database embodiment includes a set of executable instructions operable on the database. One or more database partitions are provided, each having a defined key range. The set of executable instructions is operable to reverse octets in variable length keys. A last digit in an odd-length key value, plus a pad, is placed in a dedicated octet to partition the variable length keys in the one or more database partitions.

  • Sorting variable length keys in a database
    Publication number: 20040220941
    Abstract: Methods, devices, architectures and data structures are provided for sorting variable length keys in a database. An embodiment includes a variable length key having a series of octets. Each octet includes a pair of hexadecimal values, e.g. representing digits. At least one octet includes a sort key having a value representing a digit length for a received variable length key minus a minimum digit length of an object key.
