Abstract
Mapping Enterprise Java Bean ('EJB') attributes to database schema including providing a first metamap including one or more abstracted variable characteristics of a first database schema and creating from the first metamap a second metamap for a second database schema including varying one or more of the abstracted variable characteristics to conform to the second database schema. Typical embodiments also include synchronizing, in response to methods invoked on the EJB and in dependence upon the second metamap, the state of the EJB with a persistent data store having the second database schema. In typical embodiments, synchronizing the state of the EJB with a persistent data store having the second database schema also includes creating records, updating records, and deleting records in the persistent data store.
