Servicing database requests using derivations of canonicalized tables including maintaining a canonical table repository of canonicalized tables, wherein each canonicalized table is a transformed version of a table previously retrieved from a database; receiving, from a client computing system, a request for a table from the database; generating a description of a canonical version of the requested table; determining that the canonical version of the requested table is derivable using a canonicalized table in the canonical table repository; and in response to determining that the canonical version of the requested table is derivable using the canonicalized table in the canonical table repository: transforming the canonicalized table in the canonical table repository based on the received request for the table, including deriving a portion of the requested table using the canonicalized table in the canonical table repository; and providing, to the client computing system, the transformed canonicalized table.
