COLUMN SMART MECHANISM FOR COLUMN BASED DATABASE

Embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a system and method for processing an online transactional processing (OLTP) transaction on a column-based storage of a database. The method may include receiving a request of the OLTP transaction to access data on the column-based storage. A determination may be made whether a cache associated with the database includes column information for the OLTP transaction. If the cache includes the column information for the OLTP transaction, the method may include processing the OLTP transaction with the column information in the cache. If the cache does not include the column information for the OLTP transaction, the method may include selecting columns from the column-based storage of the database.
