METADATA TABLE MANAGEMENT SCHEME FOR DATABASE CONSISTENCY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18497878 titled 'METADATA TABLE MANAGEMENT SCHEME FOR DATABASE CONSISTENCY

Simplified Explanation

The method of database management described in the abstract involves locating and reading metadata tables using recovery logic, retrieving next metadata table keys, and determining the validity of keys within the tables.

  • Locating and reading metadata tables using recovery logic
  • Retrieving next metadata table keys
  • Determining validity of keys within the tables
  • Making available memory space associated with the metadata tables

Potential Applications

  • Data management systems
  • Database recovery systems
  • Information retrieval systems

Problems Solved

  • Efficient database management
  • Reliable data recovery
  • Streamlined information retrieval

Benefits

  • Improved data organization
  • Enhanced data recovery processes
  • Optimal memory space utilization


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a method of database management including locating, with a recovery logic, a first metadata table using a beginning metadata table key, reading, by the recovery logic, the first metadata table, retrieving, with the recovery logic, a first next metadata table key of the first metadata table, locating, by the recovery logic, a second metadata table based on the first next metadata table key or based on a third next metadata table key of a third metadata table having a third metadata table range between a first metadata table range of the first metadata table and a second metadata table range of the second metadata table, reading, by the recovery logic, the second metadata table, determining, by the recovery logic, the second metadata table lacks valid keys in the second metadata table range, and making available, by the recovery logic, memory space associated with the second metadata table.
