Abstract
Techniques related to relational dictionaries are disclosed. In some embodiments, one or more non-transitory storage media store a sequence of instructions which, when executed by one or more computing devices, cause performance of a method. The method involves storing a code dictionary comprising a set of tuples. The code dictionary is a database table defined by a database dictionary and comprises columns that are each defined by the database dictionary. The set of tuples maps a set of codes to a set of tokens. The set of tokens are stored in a column of unencoded database data. The method further involves generating encoded database data based on joining the unencoded database data with the set of tuples. Furthermore, the method involves generating decoding database data based on joining the encoded database data with the set of tuples.
