Abstract

A B+ tree access method, apparatus, and a medium include: when a B+ tree creation instruction is acquired, determining whether there is an idle underlying tree file mapped to a Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM); if YES, storing underlying data of a B+ tree in the underlying tree file; if NO, creating a new target underlying tree file, and mapping the target underlying tree file to the DRAM, so as to store the underlying data of the B+ tree in the target underlying tree file; and when a number of layers of the B+ tree is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, storing, in a preset storage area, data of a layer numbered to be greater than or equal to the preset threshold in the B+ tree. Based on a data structure of the B+ tree, data needs to be accessed from the underlying data whenever read.
