• New Vacuum Solar Telescope (NVST) possesses a world-class solar telescope which observes the sun by high resolution image instruments and multi-wave spectrometer in visible and near infrared bands. NVST has gathered millions of Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) files since it has been for the routine observation and thousands of files are generated in a day. To search efficiently for a subset of these extremely large and linearly increasing FITS files with low latency and response time goes beyond traditional database systems. In this paper, We present an NVST indexing and querying framework (NIQF) based on an implementation of word-aligned hybrid bitmaps to deal with the issue, and design several simple and useful APIs, which are convenient for integrating with NVST data archiving system and meet the requirements of fast data indexing of massive data processing in NVST. We study the performance of NIQF by comparing with MySQL. The results demonstrate that the performance of NIQF is more efficient than MySQL in a huge amount of solar data set. This study indicates potential performance and feasibility of NIQF for large astronomical data indexing and querying in NVST.
