Abstract
The subject technology receives, from a metadata database, information related to a base table. The subject technology determines a table object associated with the base table, the table object including a first set of metadata. The subject technology generates a nested object based on a second set of metadata, the second set of metadata including information linking the nested object to the table object. The subject technology generates a second table object associated with the nested object, the second table object representing a secondary index of the base table, the second table object including information linking the second table object to the nested object. The subject technology establishes a link between the second table object to the base table based on the nested object. The subject technology stores, in the metadata database, the nested object and the second table object.
