Claim 7:
8. An apparatus for servicing database requests using derivations of canonicalized tables, the apparatus comprising a computer processor, a computer memory operatively coupled to the computer processor, the computer memory having disposed within it computer program instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the apparatus to carry out the steps of:
receiving, from a client computing system, a request for a table from a database;
determining that a canonical version of the requested table is derivable using a canonicalized table in a canonical table repository;
transforming the canonicalized table into the requested table by deriving a column of the requested table using a column of the canonicalized table as input; and
providing, to the client computing system, the transformed canonicalized table.
