Abstract: A method and associated system for an automatically self-learning audit of a bidirectional synchronization means for synchronizing a source system and a target system. A processor identifies a mismatch between an element of production data of the source system and an analogous production-data element of the target system. If the mismatch is caused by an issue known to the synchronization means, the processor takes corrective action known to resolve the mismatch. Otherwise, the processor attempts to identify a resolution and, if successful, applies the resolution, teaches the resolution to the synchronization mechanism, records the solution, and resends data from the correct system to the incorrect system. If unable to identify a resolution, the processor implements a next-best solution that allows continued operation despite the unresolved mismatch. The processor then generates a report of the mismatch and continues searching for other mismatches in the loaded data models.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for automated value analysis in legacy data are provided in the illustrative embodiments. A first number of occurrences of a first value in a first field is counted in the legacy data. A first identifier associated with the first field, the first value, and the first count are recorded as a first entry in a value data structure, the value data structure comprising a set of entries. The value data structure is analyzed to determine an aberration between the first count and a second count, wherein the second count corresponds to a second number of occurrences of a second value in the first field. The aberration at the first field of the legacy data is reported in a report.

Abstract: A method and associated system for efficiently firing mapping and transform rules during a bidirectional synchronization of two or more systems. A processor loads a set of mapping and transform synchronization rules and a set of cross-reference tables. When an event message received from a source system identifies a revision to an element of the source system's data, the processor parses the message to identify the revised source-system data. The processor uses the cross-references to identify synchronization rules that are associated with the revised data element. If any of the identified rules requires an additional source-system data element or an extrinsic data element located at an external source, the processor retrieves those further identified data elements. The processor then looks up the synchronization procedure of the identified rules, packages it into a synchronization message, and sends the message to the target system.

Abstract: A method and associated system for managing rules that synchronize operations of a source system and a target system. A set of linked worksheets is generated as a function of the internal logic of the synchronization rules and of worksheets that represent data models of the source and target systems. These generated worksheets describe and relate data elements of the data models, extrinsic data that is stored externally to the source and target systems, and logical procedures performed by the synchronization rules. When the source data model, the target data model, or a logical procedure is revised, the linked worksheets are updated in response to the revision and these updates automatically propagate across the synchronization rules and across other components of the source system, the target system, and the synchronization mechanism.

Abstract: A method and system for providing temporary storage associated with a duplication request. The method includes authenticating a user accessing a system. A service request for performing service functions is received. Specified data associated with performing service functions is received from a third party vendor and description metadata is added to the specified data. The service functions are executed using the specified data. Results of the executed service functions are generated. An additional service request for performing additional service functions is received and intercepted. The description metadata is compared to previous service requests stored in a temporary storage system.

Abstract: A rotating content history controller detects a web page from a server over a network, wherein the web page comprises at least a portion of the web page specified for displaying a plurality of pages of rotating content within at least one rotating content space within the web page. The rotating content history controller stores the plurality of pages of rotating content. The rotating content history controller updates a history display interface to comprise a separate selectable option for each of the plurality of pages of rotating content. In addition, responsive to a user selection of a particular one of the separate selectable options, the rotating content history controller displays the particular page of rotating content within a web page display interface, such that a user may selectively access the rotating content independent of a web page display of the rotating content.
