    Abstract: A system for an in-memory row storage architecture can be provided. In some implementations, the system performs operations comprising monitoring access to a plurality of rows in a database partition, a first portion of the plurality of rows stored in a persistent page store and a second portion of the plurality of rows stored in an in-memory row store. The operations can further comprise determining workload parameters based on the monitoring, selecting a location for performing a database operation on the database partition based on the workload parameters, and performing the database operation on the database partition within the selected location (e.g., the persistent page store or the in-memory row store). Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for storing an object onto a first or second page. An embodiment operates by receiving the object and determining that the first page has sufficient unused space for storing at least one byte of the object. Thereafter, a data block of the object is created to comprise at least one byte of the object. The data block is then stored on the first page or the second page, and a location of the object's first data block is recorded. Thereafter, a pointer corresponding to the location of the object's first data block for loading the object is provided.

    Abstract: System, method, and various embodiments for providing a hybrid data storage and load system are described herein. An embodiment operates by receiving a lookup request comprising a row identifier (ROWID) corresponding to a row of a table of a database. Which of a first set of pages corresponds to a sorted position of the ROWID is identified. The identified page of the first set of pages is loaded from the disk storage to the memory storage. A sorted row position of the ROWID is identified from a memory block of the loaded page from the first set of pages. One of a second set of pages that includes the sorted row position is identified. The identified one of the second set of pages is loaded from the disk storage into memory. The loaded identified one of the second set of pages is searched for the unsorted position of the ROWID.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for providing paged and compressed storage for column data, while maintaining existing access mechanisms for the data. In order to reduce an in-memory footprint for column data, columns may be stored in pageable format using page chains, and only those pages of the column data needed to resolve a query will be placed in memory, and evicted from memory when no longer needed. In order to further reduce the footprint for these columns, compression can be applied, and the compressed column data stored in the same pageable format using page chains. The compressed data includes a plurality of vectors, each of which is converted into pages and stored on the page chain with the others so that they can be efficiently retrieved during database retrieval operations.
