Abstract
Systems and techniques are provided for flexible data ingestion. Data including a file including a database table may be received at a computing device. The file may be in a non-standard binary format. The data including the file may be stored unaltered as a source data chunk. A processed data chunk may be generated from the source data chunk by converting the file to a standard binary format and storing the file in the processed data chunk without altering the source data chunk. A materialized data chunk may be generated from the processed data chunk by performing, with a database server engine of the computing device, a database operation on the database table of the file of the processed data chunk and storing the file in the materialized data chunk without altering the processed data chunk. The database table of the file of the materialized data chunk may be made available for querying by the database server engine.
