Abstract
Techniques for refactoring data in a database are disclosed. A database may initially store both relational and non-relational data. A request to access data from a first data element in the database may be received via a relational database API. Upon receiving the request, a determination is made as to whether the first data element has been refactored into relational and non-relational portions. If the first data element has not been refactored, a refactoring operation is carried out by storing relational portions of the first data element into a relational database and the non-relational portions of the first data element into a non-relational database. The refactoring is performed concurrent with providing data to a requesting computing system. Additionally, refactoring information is updated to indicate that the first data element has been refactored.
