Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to optimizing one or more database tables that may include one or more redundant records. Records are clustered and assigned stable identifiers. In this manner, the underlying records within a cluster are not removed or deleted. As updates to the database are made, new clustering analyses are performed using the underlying records and any updates made. Newly identified clusters are reassigned stable identifiers.
