A method of generating a schema including receiving a data record having a record type name and one or more data values is provided. The data values are associated with data value names. The method includes determining whether a set of existing schemas includes a schema associated with the record type name, determining whether the schema includes an element having the same name as a corresponding data element of the record, and validating the corresponding data element against the schema element. A new schema element is added to the schema, the new schema element having the same name and type as the corresponding data element of the record. The method can further include indexing at least one of the one or more data values, which involves querying the indexed data, forming subscription lists for the data values, and forming a derived data value associated with one or more data values.
