    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a platform-independent metadata catalog framework of a database system are disclosed. These include receiving, at the database system, a metadata object, and determining a version of the received metadata object. Responsive to determining that a metadata catalog, which has catalog entries associated with unique versions of metadata objects, does not include a catalog entry associated with the version of the received metadata object, a catalog entry in the metadata catalog is created. The created catalog entry is then associated with the version of the received metadata object. Furthermore, a version number based on the version of the received metadata is generated, which is associated with the created catalog entry. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
