  • Patent number: 10558636
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for providing read queries latch-free access to an index page. In an embodiment, a processor receives a request from a read query to access one or more records of an index page. The index page includes an update pointer and a slot array. The processor locates one or more updates prepended to the index page by locating a most recently prepended update indicated by the update pointer. Then, the processor generates a local offset table with entries in the slot array and the located one or more updates. The generated local offset table enables the processor to provide the read query access to the one or more records of the index page.

  • Publication number: 20190266267
    Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for managing hash indexing in a database management system. A database management system may receive first index usage data for a first index describing a database. The database management system may determine a first hash index effectiveness for the first index based at least in part on the first index usage data. The database management system may compare the first hash index effectiveness to a threshold hash index effectiveness. The database management system may modify a hash index status of the first index based at least in part on the comparing.
