The Clobs Table

Force.com supports the declaration of fields as character large objects (CLOBs) to permit the storage of long text fields up to 32,000 characters. For each row in the Data table that has a CLOB, Force.com stores the CLOB out-of-line in a pivot table called Clobs, which the system can join with corresponding rows in the Data table as necessary.

Note: Force.com also stores CLOBs in indexed form outside the database for fast text searches. See Section 9 for more information about Force.com’s text search engine.
