A simple B+ tree example linking the keys 1–7 to data values d 1-d 7. The linked list (red) allows rapid in-order traversal. This particular tree's branching factor is =4. Both keys in leaf and internal nodes are colored gray here. By definition, each value contained within the B+ tree is a key contained in exactly one leaf node.
A B-tree of depth n+1 can hold about U times as many items as a B-tree of depth n, but the cost of search, insert, and delete operations grows with the depth of the tree. As with any balanced tree, the cost grows much more slowly than the number of elements.
Database tables and indexes may be stored on disk in one of a number of forms, including ordered/unordered flat files, ISAM, heap files, hash buckets, or B+ trees. Each form has its own particular advantages and disadvantages. The most commonly used forms are B-trees and ISAM.
The B+ tree is a structure for indexing single-dimensional data. In order to adopt the B+ tree as a moving object index, the B x-tree uses a linearization technique which helps to integrate objects' location at time t into single dimensional value. Specifically, objects are first partitioned according to their update time.
The UB-tree as proposed by Rudolf Bayer and Volker Markl is a balanced tree for storing and efficiently retrieving multidimensional data. Like a B+ tree, information is stored only in the leaves. Records are stored according to Z-order, also called Morton order. Z-order is calculated by bitwise interlacing of the keys.
I think it's fair to keep SQLite on that list as it is. The term "B+ tree" is only relevant when data records consist of a lookup field (e.g. table's primary key) and non-lookup data fields (rest of table data). In the case of regular database indexes, the whole index record is the lookup key, therefore a B+ tree and B-tree would be equivalent ...
To turn a regular search tree into an order statistic tree, the nodes of the tree need to store one additional value, which is the size of the subtree rooted at that node (i.e., the number of nodes below it). All operations that modify the tree must adjust this information to preserve the invariant that size[x] = size[left[x]] + size[right[x]] + 1
In LSM-trees, write operations are designed to optimize performance by reducing random I/O and leveraging sequential disk writes. When a write operation is initiated, the data is first buffered in an in-memory component, often implemented using a sorted data structure such as a Skip list or B+ tree.
