20090037453 | UNIFIED AND EXTENSIBLE IMPLEMENTATION OF A CHANGE STATE ID FOR UPDATE SERVICES BASED ON A HASH CALCULATION - In a method and system for updating data in a distributed system, a server receives a request to read data stored in the server. A data structure is populated with the requested data, and a first unique identifier is generated by applying a hash function to the data stored in the data structure. The data and the first unique identifier are transmitted to the requesting client. From the client system, the server receives the first unique identifier and changes to the requested data performed on the client system through a web service application. The changes include an extension to the requested application data to include customer-specific data. Following receipt of the changed data and the first unique identifier, a second data structure is populated with the requested data. A second unique identifier is generated by applying a hash function to the data stored in the second data structure. The server compares the first and the second unique identifiers, and if the identifiers are identical, the requested data is replaced by the changed data. If the identifiers are not identical, the changed data is discarded. | 02-05-2009 |
20120158788 | System and Method for Modular Business Applications - A method of adding a program module to an installed program code. A data object having an interface for importation of data into and exportation of data out of the data object, the data object further comprising the program module, a switch identifier and a specification of a call to be inserted into the installed code is provided. Insert the call as specified by the specification of the data object into the installed program code and receive a setting for the switch from a user and storing the setting in a database table. | 06-21-2012 |
20120278114 | METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY REVERSING BUSINESS FUNCTIONS - A method for determining reversibility of a business function performed by a plurality of development objects in a user's system may include determining reversibility of an accessory container object based on a plurality of environmental factors of the user's system, checking a set of conditions specific to the business function to determine whether the business function is reversible, and displaying the business function as reversible. | 11-01-2012 |
20130152039 | PROJECT SPECIFIC SOFTWARE DELIVERY PLANNING - Various embodiments of systems and methods for project specific software delivery planning are described herein. Development objects used by development projects and dependent development objects that depend on one or more of the development objects are determined. Dependency levels are assigned to the development projects based on one or more of the development objects that cause dependency. The dependency levels comprise a first dependency level indicating two or more of the development projects changed a same development object and a second dependency level indicating a first development object changed by a first development project depends on a second development object changed by a second development project. A list of the development projects, the dependency levels assigned to the development projects, and the development objects causing the dependency are then displayed. | 06-13-2013 |
20140040867 | SYSTEM TEST SCOPE AND PLAN OPTIMIZATION - Various embodiments include at least one or systems, methods, and software providing abilities to automatically generate a test plan that mitigates risk involved in testing less than an entirety of a software system following modification. Some embodiments operate to allow a user to influence the scope of an optimized test plan while also reducing a number of tests and test execution effort involved. Such embodiments may identify portions of the software system to test and portions of the software system that will not be tested in a manner that reduces a total testing effort involved. Reductions in testing effort are performed in generation of the test plan in view of testing preferences which are utilized not only to reduce the total effort in executing a test plan, but also does so to optimize the test plan. | 02-06-2014 |
20140067868 | Schema Mapping Based on Data Views and Database Tables - Schema mapping is provided at several levels of granularity to generate views from a data model. The schema mapping allows for the database tables referenced among the data views contained in the data model to come from a collection of several physical schemas, even though the data model may comprise a single authoring schema. | 03-06-2014 |
20140258217 | View Based Table Replacement for Applications - A method includes identifying a table over a conventional database used by an application, creating a view of the table equivalent to the identified table in an in-memory database, and calling the view with a same call as used for the identified table such that calling the view via the application provides a same result as would have been obtained from the same call to the table in the conventional database. | 09-11-2014 |
20140280368 | VIEW VARIANTS IN DATABASE SCHEMA MAPPING - This disclosure includes a method, a system and a computer readable medium. The method includes receiving a data model configured to model data in a first database schema in a database system, using the received data model to generate a first data view of a first instance of the first database schema in the database system, including referencing, using a first view variant, one or more data tables including the first instance of the first database schema to generate the first data view, and using the received data model to generate a second data view of a second instance of the first database schema in the database system, including referencing, using a second view variant, one or more data tables including the second instance of the first database schema to generate the second data view. | 09-18-2014 |
20140351162 | CONTENT MAINTENANCE OPTIMIZATION - In an example embodiment, a delivery unit comprises a plurality of objects. The delivery unit is encapsulated within a transport container for delivery to an entity for installation. As new versions of the objects are created by modifying the source code, the modified versions of objects are included in the delivery unit along with unmodified versions of the remaining objects of the delivery unit. The modified versions of the objects are marked for installation, while the unmodified versions are not marked for installation. Upon installation, the objects marked for installation are extracted from the delivery unit while the objects not marked for installation are discarded. The extracted objects are then installed, thus updating any previous versions of the objects, while unmodified objects are not installed. In one representative embodiment, objects are procedures of a database system, which may be organized hierarchically into folders. | 11-27-2014 |
20140351272 | HANDLING CHANGES IN AUTOMATIC SORT - In an example embodiment, a tri-state variable associated with a table in a database indicates whether the table is automatically sorted at runtime or left unsorted. The value of the tri-state variable also indicates whether code associated with the table assumes the table will be sorted at runtime. In a situation where two parties have code that utilize the table, when the first ensures its code to no longer assumes the table will be sorted, they may set the value of the tri-state variable from automatic sorting enforced to automatic sorting recommended. In this state the table will still be automatically sorted at runtime. When the second ensures its code no longer assumes the table will be sorted, they may set the value of the tri-state variable from automatic sorting recommended to no automatic sort at which time the table is left unsorted. | 11-27-2014 |
20150039638 | ENHANCED REPORTING SYSTEM - A computer system includes a first database system that includes a plurality of tables, and a second database system that includes a subset of the tables in the first database system. The system identifies a plurality of reports that are currently generated using the second database system. The system also identifies a plurality of reports that are not currently generated using the second database system, but that are capable of being generated using the second database system, and displays a list of these reports on a computer display device. In an embodiment, the system further replicates one or more tables that are required for generation of additional reports from the first database system to the second database system. | 02-05-2015 |
