A comment quality system for improving comments for source code includes a processor and memory. An operating system is executed by the processor and memory. A comment quality application, executed by the processor and memory, is configured to receive data relating to a number of source code comments that are associated with source code developed in a code developer application, generate a desired number of comments based on an estimated quality of comments for a code developer and a number of reviewers of the source code, and send feedback to the code developer application based on the desired number of comments for the source code and the number of source code comments.

Systems and methods for determining and enforcing the optimal amount of source code comments

The upgrading of a relational database on multiple of machines (e.g., a service) that perform data operations via stored procedures. The upgrade occurs without changing the functionality of the set of one or more stored procedures. Accordingly, even if the machine itself is not upgraded, the machines can still interface with the database via the set of one or more stored procedures. The upgrade of the relational database occurs by adding occur by adding new table(s) to the relational database, and thereafter adding new stored procedures to the stored procedure store, the new stored procedures referencing parameters of the new tables. Since the machines that interface with the relational database can still operate on the upgraded database using the old stored procedures, each machine may then be upgraded in an orderly manner to interface with the new stored procedures.
