Abstract

A database has a main table and an auxiliary table. Data are stored by: dividing the data into a sequence of segments each having a size smaller than a predetermined threshold; storing a first segment into a first field of a record of the main table; storing an index indexing the data into a second field of the record of the main table; storing the other segments into first fields of corresponding records of the auxiliary table; generating indexes associated to the other segments and storing each index into a second field of the record of the auxiliary table storing the associated segment of the sequence and also in a third field of the record of the auxiliary table storing a preceding segment in the sequence. A third record of the main table stores the index of a first segment of the sequence which is stored in the auxiliary table.
