Abstract: The present solution can include a SQL coprocessor. The SQL coprocessor can comprise silicon-based logic within which a set of machine-readable instructions that are associated with one or more silicon-based components of a database architecture can be implemented. A silicon-based component can include a protocol interface component, a SQL parsing component, a calculation engine component, and/or an I/O handing component.

Abstract: Relational queries to a hierarchical database having data tables are rapidly processed. A bridging table is created to transform a many to many relationship into a plurality of one to many relationships. The bridging table is stored on a custom semiconductor chip which parses the query and determines by use of the bridging table which records in the data tables match the query using a custom data algorithm stored on the semiconductor chip. For each match, a pointer to a target record in the hierarchical database is stored. Instructions executed on the custom chip read the pointers or the target records and transfer these to the query requester.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and article of manufacture for implementing a relational schema comprising at least one many-to-many relationship in a hierarchical database supporting one-to-many relationships, the relational schema being defined by a plurality of entities including at least one first entity having N components and at least one second entity having M components, the first and the second entity having a many-to-many relationship. One embodiment comprises creating a bridging table to transform the many-to-many relationship between the first and the second entities into a one-to-many relationship between the first entity and the bridging table and a one-to-many relationship between the bridging table and the second entity. For each mapping between one of the N components and one of the M components, an entry is created in the bridging table, the entry comprising a mapping between the one of the N components and the one of the M components.
