摘要： Techniques for sharing information in a wide variety of contexts allows both an explicit capture process and an implicit capture process to add information items to a staging area. An information sharing system supports both implicit and explicit consumption of information items that are stored in the staging area. A rules engine allows users to create and register rules that customize the behavior of the capture processes, the consuming processes, and propagation processes that propagate information from the staging areas to designated destinations. Exactly-once handling of sequence of items is achieved for items maintained in volatile memory. DDL operations are recorded, and operations are asynchronously performed based on the previously-performed DDL operations.

摘要： A method and apparatus for performing an administrative function on an object, replicated at a plurality of sites, suspends or "quiesces" replication activities at the granularity of an object group. Each object resides in an object group, and each object group has a status flag that indicates whether replication activities are quiesced. In response to detecting a request to perform an administrative function on an object, replication activities are suspended for the object group. Previous transactions are propagated to other sites. When each site has propagated all the previous transactions, the administrative function is performed and replication activities for the object group are resumed.

摘要： A method and apparatus for replicating data among sites is provided. The method allows changes to the same body of data to be replicated synchronously to some destination sites and asynchronously to other destination sites. Such mixed propagation configurations allow synchronous updating to selected remote copies of replicated data where data integrity is a high priority, and asynchronous propagation to remaining copies of replicated data in order to allow transactions to be committed locally regardless of whether the transaction is committed at a remote copy of the replicated data. The propagation mode is selectable by a user on a site-to-site basis for each replicated body of data, thus providing a mix of availability and consistency that is not possible in purely synchronous or purely asynchronous replication systems.

摘要： Approaches described herein may be used for provisioning of databases that requires a bulk transfer of data within a distributed computing environment, such as a grid. The approaches do not require the manual intervention of a DBA to, for example, transfer a tablespace between the file systems of operating systems. Instead, the tablespaces may be provisioned automatically and dynamically by a grid computing system whenever it determines the need to dynamically provision a database. In addition, as copies of tablespaces are provisioned, synchronization mechanisms can also be automatically provisioned to keep the tablespaces and their copies in sync.

摘要： A method and apparatus employs primary key values stored in a master table to drive a fast refresh mechanism for a snapshot defined on the master table. A primary key is a set of columns in the master table having a combined value that uniquely identifies each row in the master table. When rows of the master table are modified, the primary key values of the modified rows are recorded in a master log. In response to a fresh command, differences between the master table and snapshot are reconciled based on primary key values stored in the master table, the master log, and the snapshot.
