ABSTRACT:
A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for a computer implemented storage mechanism for persistent objects in a database management system. A statement is executed in a computer. The statement is performed by the computer to manipulate data in a database stored on a data storage device connected to the computer. It is determined that an object is to be stored in an inline buffer. When the object can be entirely stored in the inline buffer, the object is stored in the inline buffer. When the object cannot be entirely stored in the inline buffer, a selected portion of the object is stored in the inline buffer and the remaining portion of the object is stored as a large object.
