Abstract: Data replication in a database includes identifying a source database system. The source database includes a main index file and a delta log file. To create a replica, one or more symbolic links to the source database system are generated. The symbolic links identify a path to a physical location of the source database. A replica of the source database is generated based on the symbolic links. The replica includes a copy of the main index file and delta log file. Information associated with the replica and the symbolic links is stored in a recovery log. Replica are provided transparently to most database engine components by re-using partitioning infrastructure. Components “see” replica as tables with a single partition; that partition is a local replica.

Abstract: A system, computer-implemented method, and a computer-readable medium for determining why a query returns a null set in a database management system. When the database management system receives a query graph, database management system compares the query graph to the data graph. Based on the comparison, database management system identifies a discovered component of the query graph and a missing component of the query graph, wherein the missing query component indicates a reason for the null set.

Abstract: A business object model, which reflects data that is used during a given business transaction, is utilized to generate interfaces. This business object model facilitates commercial transactions by providing consistent interfaces that are suitable for use across industries, across businesses, and across different departments within a business during a business transaction. In some operations, software creates, updates, or otherwise processes information related to a message-based communication arrangement, an organizational center replication request, and a payment schedule business object.

Abstract: Methods and system for optimizing an execution of a business process are disclosed. In one aspect, a request to execute a business process is received. The business process is executed on multiple threads, which may include multiple computations. The business process is optimized by determining an optimal number of threads for executing the business process by a thread optimization model. From the determined optimal number of threads, the computations in the threads may be distributed or reallocated iteratively by executing an inter-thread computations optimization model. Executing the thread optimization model and the inter-thread computations optimization model optimizes the execution of the business process.
