In computer science, a b tree is a selfbalancing tree data structure that maintains sorted data and allows searches, sequential access, insertions, and deletions in logarithmic time. Btree is a fast data indexing method that organizes indexes into a multilevel set of nodes, where each node contains indexed data. A b tree is an organizational structure for information storage and retrieval in the form of a tree in which all terminal nodes are at the same distance from the base, and all nonterminal nodes have between n and 2 n subtrees or pointers where n is an integer.

A multilevel index can be created for any type of firstlevel index primary, secondary, clustering as long as the firstlevel index consists of more than one disk block. The basic assumption was that indexes would be so voluminous that.
Dense indices if the searchkey value does not appear in the index, insert it. Index records comprise searchkey values and data pointers. It is a data structure technique which is used to quickly locate and access the data in a database. Then the leaf blocks can contain more than one row address for the same column value.
