Hi,

This is a SAP feature and implemented in SAP's kernel routines which connect the database with the SAP system.

I agree, this is ABAP Dictionary specific way of data encapulation, not the DB type dependant one. Basically it stores the data in RAW or LRAW format.

Also be aware that we distinguish b/w [data clusters|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/fc/eb3bf8358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm] and [cluster tables|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cf/21f083446011d189700000e8322d00/content.htm].
