  • Patent number: 11537387
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with patching database objects while a database system is online are described. In one embodiment, a patch command is defined and identifies a database code object, wherein the patch command is configured to modify code of the database code object. A serialized lock is requested from the database system for the database code object, wherein the serialized lock prohibits executing applications of the database system from accessing the database code object. In response to receiving the serialized lock from the database system, the code of the database code object is modified with a patch code to generate a modified database code object. The modified database code object is compiled and the serialized lock on the database code object is released to allow other executing applications to call and access the database code object.
