Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes a processor deploying one or more scripts in a first deployment instance, where the first deployment instance is deployed from a first shared computing environment. The processor determines a difference between the first deployment instance at deployment and the first deployment instance at runtime and based on this determination, selects a first script from the one or more scripts. The processor captures a representation of the first deployment instance and selects a second script, where second script sets up relationships between resources of the first deployment instance in a subsequently deployed deployment instance. The processor utilizes the representation, the first script, and the second script to deploy a second deployment instance from a second shared computing environment.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for importing data for an Entity Relationship (E-R) model includes receiving an exported E-R model data file of the E-R model, and determining a dependency type correlation of an entity and importing the entity directly if the determined dependency type is one of weak correlation and no correlation. The method also includes determining whether the imported entity with no correlation or weak correlation affects an entity recorded in a strong correlation table, and storing the entity in the strong correlation table until a minimum reference number of a strong correlation is satisfied if the dependency type correlation is strong. The method further includes importing the entity recorded in the strong correlation table, and deleting the entity recorded in the strong correlation table from the strong correlation table when the imported entity with no correlation or weak correlation affects an entity recorded in the strong correlation table.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of database technology. More specifically, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and system for importing E-R model data utilizing dependency information in an E-R model data schema. This disclosure provides a method for importing E-R model data, comprising: receiving an imported E-R model data file and a data schema of the E-R model; determining a dependency type of each entity in the data file based on the data schema, wherein the dependency type corresponds to at least one of no correlation, weak correlation, or strong correlation; and correspondingly importing each entity in the E-R model data file based on the determined dependency type.

Abstract: Instance documents related to policy enforcement are gathered according to a business requirement. The instance documents are instantiated from corresponding schema documents. An instantiated context model, including references to the gathered instance documents, is generated from a context model definition. A policy set to be enforced using the instantiated context model is generated according to the gathered instance documents. An enforcement sequence of policies in the policy set is determined. The policies are applied to the instantiated context model according to the enforcement sequence.
