Abstract
A data processing system maintaining a plurality of masking engines is configured to synchronize masking jobs between different masking engines, in order to ensure consistent outputs between the different engines for the same job. Upon identifying a masking job object maintained by a first masking engine to be exported, dependencies of the job object are traversed to identify all objects depended on by the job object, which are used to form an export payload. At least object of the payload is a reference object that references other objects maintained by the first masking engine. When importing the export payload onto a second masking engine, the export payload is analyzed to identify revision information of the referenced object. The identified revision information is compared with revision information of a corresponding object maintained by the second masking engine, and the referenced objects is imported based upon a result of the comparison.
