Abstract

In one aspect, a method of storing data includes setting a first data node in a first storage area and setting a second data node in a second storage area. The second data node is an element of a plurality of elements forming a first flat table of at least one flat table in the second storage area. The step of setting a first data node includes storing in the first data node a two-tuple linker which comprises a first identifier indicating the first flat table and a second identifier indicating the row of the element in the first flat table.
