摘要 |
The present invention provides a data storage system, method and computer program product having an active data store and a data communication mechanism comprising a unified container layer for validating both externally-generated data and data generated within the active data store, wherein the unified container layer transmits and receives data using the data communication mechanism. In a preferred embodiment, the active data store is an entity-relationship-attribute data store which comprises a relational database. The unified container layer may validate data using a syntax checker and a semantics checker, which may comprise a rules engine. Preferably, the data communication mechanism is one of a publish/subscribe system, a synchronous communication system, and an asynchronous communication system.
