Abstract
Embodiments of methods and systems consistent with the present invention allow for updating tenants in a hosted provider-tenant system by analyzing data structures associated with a particular tenant to determine a delta between the data structures associated with the particular tenant and new or modified data structures at the provider. Data structures may thus be created or updated at the provider and then compared to existing data structures stored in association with one or more tenants in the system. In this way, updates may be easily determined and imported to multiple tenants in the provider-tenant system.
