Abstract

At least a portion of a table stored in a global data repository is selected to be accessed and modified. The selected portion is stored in a local table in local memory of a node of a client-server environment. The local table is modified, and then at least a portion of the modified local table is merged with the global table. The merger is performed without requiring any user locking of the global table.
