Aliased data retrieval for key-value stores

Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for aliased data insertions/retrieval for key-value stores. In aspects, a data set comprising a primary key, one or more secondary keys ("aliases"), and data values may be received by a data storage system. The system may allocate an internal identifier to the primary key and store the internal identifier and the primary key in a first table. Each of the secondary keys may be used to create a key-value pair comprising the secondary key and the internal identifier. The key-value pair(s) may be stored in the first table with the corresponding primary key. The internal identifier and the data values may be stored in a second table. Subsequently, the primary or secondary key may be used to interrogate the first table for the internal identifier. The internal identifier may then be used to interrogate the second table for the data values.
