Abstract
A structured document storage format is provided in which tokens used for encoding and decoding are contained within the encoded document in an inline dictionary. Each document is encoded independently, and there is no central dependency or any dependency on other documents during DML and query execution. Each encoded document has all information with it on disk so that the document can be independently shared, decoded, or distributed. A mechanism is provided for quickly determining a mapping between tags and tokens without having to scan the entire inline token dictionary for each document. This allows the database system to process multiple documents, each having its own inline token dictionary, without having to fully scan the inline dictionary of every document for each tag that referenced in an operation.
