    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for exporting a database container from a database includes exporting database container metadata including artifact definitions in the metadata along with the actual metadata content to a database management system, exporting the database container including the database objects deployed therein to the database management system. The exporting of the database container includes exporting dependencies and structures of the database objects deployed therein, but not the actual content of the database objects. In some instances, however, exporting of the database container can include exporting the actual content of the database objects in response to user request. The method further includes packing the exported database container metadata and the exported database container in an archive. The data in the archive can be unpacked in substantially reverse order to import the database container into another database.

    Abstract: Technologies are described for migrating deployment infrastructure containers. Deployment infrastructure containers are used for isolating and deploying related database objects together. Deployment infrastructure containers can store design-time artifacts and run-time artifacts. Deployment infrastructure containers can be migrated using a first migration technique in which catalog objects are migrated from a source database system to a target database system and updated to work in the target database system (e.g., by updating metadata). Deployment infrastructure containers can also be migrated using a second migration technique that migrates design-time artifacts and builds the design-time artifacts at the target database system to re-create the run-time artifacts. Migrated deployment infrastructure containers can be integrated into the target environment, which can include creating new service instances and associating them with the migrated deployment infrastructure containers.

    Abstract: Embodiments map from a database environment, dependencies between files created at designtime and corresponding runtime data objects defined by deployment of those files. A dependency table is populated with dependency information (e.g., origin, target, dependency type) extracted during deployment. That dependency information may be searched according to user-specified parameters (e.g., a file provides an object; an object requires a file), to allow rapid correlation between designtime file(s) and related runtime data object(s). Embodiments are particularly useful in visualizing complex (e.g., one-to-many; many-to-one) file-object dependencies characteristic of modern database environments. Queries posed to the dependency table may further seek intra-designtime dependency information (e.g., one file depends upon another file; one file impacts another file), and/or intra-runtime dependency information (e.g., table objects referenced by view objects; view objects referenced by procedure objects). Dependency information may be recursively searched in an iterative manner in order to construct dependency pathways reflecting complex file-object relationships.
