  • Patent number: 12705254
    Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for shard-based data indexing and retrieval in multi-key environments. The present disclosure is configured to streamline data management by utilizing a shard directory to assign unique shard key hashes to database records. This configuration allows for the efficient creation, addition, updating, and deletion of keys with minimal computational overhead. By leveraging a domain, key type, and key value, the system computes a compact shard key hash, facilitating targeted data retrieval within a specific shard. This eliminates the need to search across all shards, thereby enhancing performance. The system's instructions, when executed by a processing device, ensure that these operations preserve data integrity and optimize database interactions, leading to a more responsive and scalable data infrastructure.
