METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPLEMENTING CHANGES WITHIN A DATA SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention provides a method of and apparatus for implementing changes within a data system. The method receiving a request including one or more objects to be imported into a data system, creating a back up request comprising a copy of the objects included within the request, implementing the back up request in the system to generate a modified back up request including a log of the objects modified in the request, storing the modified back up request. This allows a log of changes to objects in the data system to be generated using a copy of a request including a list of changes to the objects. Once the modified back up request has been generated the request may be imported into the system.

主权项

1. A system including a data store and a processor configured to, upon receiving a request including one or more objects to be imported into the system, perform the steps of:
creating a back up request comprising a copy of the objects included within the request as they are present in the system at the time the back up request is created; storing the backup request, wherein the processor is configured to identify a back up request implementing a change to an object in the system, the reversal of which may involve a loss of information and, upon identifying the backup request, generate an alert to a user.
