An apparatus comprises a hardware accelerator coupled to a memory. The hardware accelerator comprises one or more decompression units. The one or more decompression units are reconfigurable. The hardware accelerator may be a field-programmable gate array. The hardware accelerator may also comprise one or more reconfigurable scanner units. The one or more decompression units, in the aggregate, are operative to decompress one or more rows of a database at a bus speed of the coupling between the hardware accelerator and the memory. Two or more decompression units are operative to decompress two or more rows of a database in parallel. The apparatus allows for hardware accelerated row decompression.
