More Information
Summary:A method, system, and/or computer program product stores and retrieves payload data using a ternary content addressed memory (TCAM) hybrid memory. TCAM data is transmitted to a context masking device. The TCAM data identifies a type of payload data, and the context masking device masks the TCAM data with a context mask to create a masked TCAM data. One or more processors append the masked TCAM to payload data to create multiple stored units of TCAM-identified payload data in a location addressable store (LAS). The processor(s) receive a request for data. The request includes a masked request TCAM data that identifies a content and context of requested data. An exclusive OR (XOR) chip identifies relevant payload data within the LAS that are within a predefined Hamming distance of the masked request TCAM data. The processor(s) return the relevant payload data within the LAS to the requester.
