Abstract

A database system detects a query targeting a first database object stored in a unified persistence format in a persistence store, where a first load unit is specified for loading the first database object into an in-memory store. The database system determines whether to convert the first load unit to a second load unit based on one or more conditions. In response to determining to convert the first load unit to the second load unit for the first database object, the first database object is loaded into the in-memory store according to the second load unit without performing a rewrite of the first database object in the persistence store. In an example, the first load unit is a column-loadable unit and the second load unit is a page-loadable unit.
