Token-based database system and method of interfacing with the token-based database system

Provided are a token-based database system and method of interfacing with the token-based database system. In accordance therewith, a token database is accessed in a memory. The token database includes a core model, which includes one or more core model tokens that provide default functionality. An extended model is generated in the token database. The extended model includes one or more non-core extended model tokens, which conform to the core model and reference the core model tokens. Thereafter, one or more non-core instance tokens are generated in the token database. The instance tokens conform to the extended model and reference the extended model tokens, wherein each of the instance tokens is configured to have zero or more connections connecting other instance tokens, and wherein the token database comprises a plurality of tokens that includes the core model tokens, the extended model tokens, and the instance tokens.
