Abstract
Multiple execution environments are established for processing database statements with diverse package dependencies. A database system receives a user application and identifies, via hardware processors, multiple package dependencies required by the application, including at least a first and a second package dependency. Upon receiving a database statement from a user that invokes these dependencies, the system retrieves the necessary packages from a repository. It then creates a first execution environment incorporating the first package dependency and a second execution environment with the second package dependency. Utilizing the multiple execution environments, the system generates results data in response to the database statement, effectively managing and executing user-defined functions that rely on different versions or types of package dependencies within a unified database framework.
