In computer science, an inverted index (also referred to as a postings list, postings file, or inverted file) is a database index storing a mapping from content, such as words or numbers, to its locations in a table, or in a document or a set of documents (named in contrast to a forward index, which maps from documents to content). The purpose of an inverted index is to allow fast full-text searches, at a cost of increased processing when a document is added to the database.

TYPE OF DATABASE INDEX
Full inverted index; Inverted file; Inverted files; Inverted file index; Inverted list; Inverse index; Postings file
<database, information science> A sequence of (key, pointer)
pairs where each pointer points to a record in a database
which contains the key value in some particular field. The
index is sorted on the key values to allow rapid searching for
a particular key value, using e.g. binary search. The index
is "inverted" in the sense that the key value is used to find
the record rather than the other way round. For databases in
which the records may be searched based on more than one
field, multiple indices may be created that are sorted on
those keys.
An index may contain gaps to allow for new entries to be added
in the correct sort order without always requiring the
following entries to be shifted out of the way.
