Abstract
Aspects of the invention relate generally to updating of interconnected features stored in a repository while maintaining highly consisting views of the repository data. More specifically, the invention relates to updating some features in bulk while providing for incremental updates for other features which are not completely independent of the bulk edits. The bulk edits are grouped into stages or 'epochs' associated with various manageable states, including, for example, a building state, an approval state, a live state, and an abandoned state. The current view of the data is thus based on the status of each of the epochs. At the same time, incremental edits may be performed where the incremental edits are independent of the current live bulk epoch. This allows the system to maintain consistent views of the data until an entire group of features moves into the live state.
