Abstract
A method of managing a database including creating an initial counting bloom filter (CBF) instance having an array of counters and hash functions that map an inserted value to the array of counters, and designating the initial CBF instance as a current CBF instance, and sequentially inserting each value of a sample data set of a table column into the hash functions of the current CBF instance and incrementing counters of the array of counters to which the value is mapped. The method further includes, prior to inserting each value into the hash functions of the current CBF instance, when a number of counters of the array of counters having non-zero values is at least at a threshold level, designating the current CBF instance as an old CBF instance, creating a new CBF instance having an array of counters and hash functions that map an inserted value to the array counters, and designating the new CBF instance as the current CBF instance.
