Patent number: 10437796Abstract: Techniques are described for schema lifecycle management. In one example, a method includes dividing, with one or more processing devices, a plurality of statements of a data definition language (DDL) script into a plurality of groups, the plurality of groups configured to be executed in parallel by a persistence layer. The method further includes assigning, with the one or more processing devices, one or more of the plurality of groups to a plurality of worker applications. The method further includes executing, with the one or more processing devices, constituent statements of the plurality of statements of the DDL script within each group of the plurality of groups by the plurality of worker applications in a session.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2016Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CoporationInventors: Rohit Bahl, Samuel S.

Patent number: 9971596Abstract: Aspects include extensible change set conflict and merge gap detection in a record-based configuration management system. A method includes instructing the record-based configuration management system to create a change set. The method also includes instructing the record-based configuration management system to add one or more version mappings to a given configuration and to indicate specific concepts which should be flagged as not participating in a process that includes change set conflict and merge gap detection. The record-based configuration management system is instructed to deliver the change set to a requestor.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2017Date of Patent: May 15, 2018Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Ian Green, Gary M. Johnston, Adam R. Neal, Dominic H. Tulley
