Processing consistency validations of configuration data

Abstract:

Configuration data characterizing configuration information of at least one application process executing on a target system is received. The configuration data includes at least one first table and at least one second table upon which the first table depends. 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 a dependency of the first table on the second table 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 determining whether to validate includes determining to validate the configuration data in response to determining that the second table has been modified. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
