Abstract
Data may be stored using hybrid multidimensional and column-centric storage techniques. A hierarchy of regions of a multidimensional space may be maintained on one or more storage devices. Range information for the hierarchy may be maintained in a column-centric storage. Leaf nodes of the hierarchy may comprise tuple data stored in a column-centric storage. Tuples may be located by identifying candidate regions encompassing the tuple and scanning column-centric stores at the leaf level. Region splitting may be deferred to favor column-centric search characteristics.
