Abstract
An apparatus for applying database commands to one or more database tables includes a memory and a hardware-implemented pipeline. The hardware-implemented pipeline includes one or more table-processing circuits, and is configured to receive a stream of input records drawn from the one or more database tables, to parse first records, from among the input records, into a key and one or more fields other than the key, to store at least parts of the first records in the memory so as to be accessible using the key, and to apply a database command by matching at least parts of second records from among the input records to the at least parts of the first records stored in the memory, in accordance with the key.
