Abstract
According to one embodiment, a translation component is configured to operate on document encoded data to translate the document encoded data into a canonical format comprising a plurality of canonical types that fold together into a byte stream. The translation component is configured to accept any storage format of data (e.g., column store, row store, LSM tree, etc. and/or data from any storage engine, WIREDTIGER, MMAP, AR tree, Radix tree, etc.) and translate that data into a byte stream to enable efficient comparison. When executing searches and using the translated data to provide comparisons there is necessarily a trade-off based on the cost of translating the data and how much the translated data can be leveraged to increase comparison efficiency.
