Processing Consistency Validations of Conditional Foreign-Key Relations

Abstract:

Configuration data is received characterizing configuration information of at least one application process executing on a target system. The configuration data includes a first table, a second table, and a third table. The first table includes a first conditional dependency on the second table and a second conditional dependency on the third table. The receiving is performed prior to transmission of the configuration data to the target system for application of the configuration data to the target system. At least one validation definition including a header and table elements specifying the first conditional dependency and the second conditional dependency is determined using the configuration data. Whether to validate the configuration data to ensure consistency within the target system is determined using the at least one validation definition. The determination of whether to validate the configuration data is provided. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
