    Good question, I think there's many different lessons. To your point about bitmasks, you can imagine that each component (i.e. column) has an array of data and a large bitmap that identifies whether a component is present or not. Had to build a SIMD implementation so you can do and, and not, or and xor operations on millions of components within reasonable amount of time. Interestingly enough, you still need a hashmap or b+tree in case you want to retrieve a component by it's ID instead of an index, but the rest of things can be modeled with bitmap indexes.
