# Data storage in RocksDB
Blockbook stores data the key-value store RocksDB.
The data are separated to different column families:
- **default**
at the moment not used, will store statistical data etc.
- **height** - maps *block height* to *block hash*
*Block heigh* stored as binary array of 4 bytes (big endian uint32)
*Block hash* stored as binary array of 32 bytes
Example - the first four blocks (all data hex encoded)
```
0x00000000 : 0x000000000933EA01AD0EE984209779BAAEC3CED90FA3F408719526F8D77F4943
0x00000001 : 0x00000000B873E79784647A6C82962C70D228557D24A747EA4D1B8BBE878E1206
0x00000002 : 0x000000006C02C8EA6E4FF69651F7FCDE348FB9D557A06E6957B65552002A7820

```
- **outputs** - maps *address+block height* to *array of outpoints*
*Address+block height* stored as binary array 25 bytes total - 21 bytes address without checksum + 4 bytes (big endian uint32) block height
*array of outpoints* stored as binary array of 32 bytes for transaction id + variable length outpoint index for each outpoint
Example - (all data hex encoded)

```
- **inputs** - maps *transaction outpoint* to *input transaction* that spends it
*Transaction outpoint* stored as binary array of 32 bytes for transaction id + variable length outpoint index
*Input transaction* stored as binary array of 32 bytes for transaction id + variable length input index
Example - (all data hex encoded)
