Abstract
A distributed database system maintains data for a logical table by storing, on a plurality of storage nodes, a collection of key-item pairs. The distributed database system receives a query of the logical table, and identifies one or more portions of a key specified by the query. Based on the one or more portions of the key, the distributed database causes at least one of a get, range query, or scan operation to be performed by one or more of the storage nodes. Results for the query are generated based on one or more items obtained by performance of the operation.
