I know the conceptual differences between the two i.e. regarding key-value pairs, sequential access etc. I wanted to know how they are used in DBMS and are their any differences in the use of these trees?

  • They serve the same purposes. B+trees are a little nicer in most cases, because having all the values in the leaves simplifies many operations and increases internal node fan-out.
