Abstract
A database system performs a data definition operation comprising at least a first sub-operation performed synchronously and a second sub-operation performed asynchronously. The synchronous sub-operation comprises modification of a database structure, and the asynchronous sub-operation comprises configuration of storage associated with the database structure. A response to the data definition operation is provided synchronously after the synchronous sub-operation is completed, without waiting for completion of the asynchronous sub-operation.
