1. A method of dynamically configuring a cardinality of keyword attributes having executable instructions, comprising the steps of:
- generating a table having a table schema comprising an identification field, a keyword field, and a keyword value field;
inserting a first value into the table wherein the first value is part of the keyword value field and associated with a first keyword which is part of the keyword field;
inserting a second value into the table wherein the second value is part of the keyword value field and associated with the first keyword; and
associating a first identification which is part of the identification field with the first keyword, the first value, and the second value within the table schema, and wherein the first keyword includes at least two field names, wherein each field name is associated with a separate external table and each field name is also associated with one of the first or second values of the keyword value field.
