Abstract
Implementations include, during development of a second version within a development environment, tracing activities to determine development tables, the second version including changes that are incompatible with the first version, the development tables including deploy tables, activation tables, and troubleshooting tables, computing, by a configuration generator, an upgrade configuration based on the development tables, the upgrade configuration defining tables to deploy the changes during an upgrade, the tables being computed based on the development tables, during the upgrade: continuing production use of a first version using a first runtime at least partially including a first data schema, and establishing a second runtime at least partially by defining a second data schema within the database system using the upgrade configuration, the second data schema including the tables, and completing the upgrade by switching production use to the second version from the first version.
