Database scheme for storing generic data

Abstract:

Provided are a system and method for generating a database scheme for storing different types of data structures. In one example, the method includes receiving a first data object having a first data structure and a second data object having a second data structure that is different than the first data structure, generating a database scheme based on the first data structure and the second data structure, wherein the generated database scheme retains information about a structure of the first data structure and a structure of the second data structure, and storing the first data object and the second data object, in a database, according to the generated database scheme. According to various aspects, by at least partially retaining the original structure of the data objects, further searching and processing may be performed on different types of data objects stored in a relational database.
