Abstract
A system identifies a first number of distinct values stored in a first field by a dataset of records. The system identifies a second number of distinct values stored in a second field by the dataset of records. The system creates a trie from values stored in a field by multiple records, the field corresponding to the first field or the second field, based on comparing the first number to the second number. The system associates a node in the trie with one of the multiple records, based on a value stored in the field by the record. The system identifies a branch sequence in the trie as a key for a prospective record, based on a prospective value stored in a corresponding field by the prospective record. The system uses the key for the prospective record to identify one of the multiple records that matches the prospective record.
