Abstract
A method and apparatus employs primary key values stored in a master table to drive a fast refresh mechanism for a snapshot defined on the master table. A primary key is a set of columns in the master table having a combined value that uniquely identifies each row in the master table. When rows of the master table are modified, the primary key values of the modified rows are recorded in a master log. In response to a fresh command, differences between the master table and snapshot are reconciled based on primary key values stored in the master table, the master log, and the snapshot.
