    摘要: Versioned metadata allows multiple versions of metadata for a given object to exist concurrently on a system thereby supporting the parallel execution of operations which would otherwise be mutually exclusive. Metadata updates are permitted while other objects maintain access to another version of the metadata through a versioning infrastructure. The versioning infrastructure allows the creation of new versions of metadata, maintains obsolete versions in the system as long as they are being used by any object, and deletes the obsolete versions once they are no longer in use.

    摘要翻译: 版本化元数据允许给定对象的多个版本的元数据同时存在于系统上,从而支持并行执行否则将是相互排斥的操作。 允许元数据更新,而其他对象通过版本控制基础架构可以访问其他版本的元数据。 版本控制基础架构允许创建新的元数据版本,只要系统使用它们,就可以在系统中维护过时的版本,并在不再使用过时的版本后删除它们。
