Systems, methods and computer program products for statement categorization and normalization are described herein. An embodiment includes a statement categorizer and a statement normalizer. The statement categorizer categorizes statements to reduce or even eliminate inconsistencies that may arise between primary and replicate databases as a result of executing certain statements. Categorized statements are normalized by the statement normalizer to generate normalized statements, which are provided to a replication server. Normalized statements assist replication server to regenerate a statement to be executed on a replicate database.

Statement categorization and normalization

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for compiling a stored procedure in a database. The compiling includes the steps of invoking the stored procedure, the stored procedure comprising one or more statements, substituting run-time values for one or more variables in the statements, and creating an access plan for the statements having the substituted run-time values.

Deferred compilation of stored procedures

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for replicating a table in a source database to a target database. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a subscription to the table is defined and a query is executed on the source database. The query is then normalized, and it is determined whether the query would cause semantically appropriate changes to the target database. If so, the normalized query is sent to the target database for execution, in accordance with an additional embodiment of the present invention.

System, method, and computer program product for determining SQL replication process

System, method, computer program product embodiments and combinations and sub-combinations thereof for logging of data manipulation language (DML) statements are described herein. An embodiment includes a database engine, a replication agent and a replication server which replicates data from the database engine to one or more replicate databases. The database engine writes parsed query information into a transaction log so that a process of replication agent may read the parsed query information and forward it to the replication server. The database engine writes all log records associated with a statement in a manner that allows the replication server to distinguish if those log records belong to same statement. In another embodiment, replication agent selectively sends SQL statement information to the replication server based on the replication server architecture.
