Abstract
Managing stored content is disclosed. It is determined that a new or modified attribute is to be associated with future-created instances of an object type but not with at least some previously-created instances of the object type. A default intra-type customization that associates the new or modified attribute with future-created instances of the object type, in a manner that results in the new or modified attribute being stored in a database structure that is separate from a type-specific structure configured to store one or more type-based attributes common to both the at least some previously-created and future-created instances of the object type, is associated with the object type.
