Abstract

Data is accessed and updated in a data store at a field granularity. A user query specifies one or more non-unique fields of a record. The query is sent to a data store to retrieve the fields of the record at a field granularity, in satisfaction of the query. The fields of the record can also be modified by transmitting a record ID along with original content, while omitting some of the record data, and by also including the modification to be made.
