Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods for providing an improved hardware-assisted multi-table database with reduced memory footprint. A method includes receiving a request to perform an operation on a selected logical table of a plurality of logical database tables. The method also includes accessing a data structure comprising a plurality of records each including: a logical table identifier corresponding to one of the plurality of logical database tables, wherein the logical table identifier is accessed from a register, and at least one sort key. The method also includes performing the operation using one or more sort criteria, wherein the one or more sort criteria are maintained for the selected logical table using the at least one sort key of the plurality of records corresponding to the selected logical table. The method also includes updating the data structure to reflect the performed operation.
