Abstract
A system for searching for data in a database. A query search is received in a query language using objects. The query search includes a number of objects having attributes. A set of hybrid query instructions is generated using the number of objects having attributes for searching relational and hierarchical data in the database. In response to generating the set of hybrid query instructions recognized by the database for searching data, the set of hybrid instructions are executed to obtain a result from the database.
