ABSTRACT:
A system and method for saving and restoring RAM-resident databases. Each structure within a database image written to storage includes a self-relative pointer to its actual location in RAM upon being written to disk and may include one or more memory-to-memory pointers to other structures within the database. Upon the database disk image being reloaded to RAM from storage, the self-relative pointers are used to reconstruct the memory-to-memory pointers.
