1. A method for database configuration migration, the method comprising:
- providing a first database having a configuration that specifies a number of data fields, a length of each data field, and a type of data for each data field;
copying the configuration of the first database to a second database;
receiving an instruction to hold constant the configuration of the first database;
implementing a change in the configuration of the second database;
storing a configuration change transaction record based at least in part on the change in the configuration of the second database;
sending the configuration change transaction record; and
implementing a change in the configuration of the first database based at least in part on the configuration change transaction record such that the changed configuration of the first database is the same as the changed configuration of the second database.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention relate to systems and methods for database configuration migration. In an embodiment, the method includes receiving an instruction to hold constant a configuration of a first database. A change is implemented in a configuration of a second database. A configuration change transaction record based at least in part on the change in the configuration of the second database is stored. The configuration change transaction record is sent. A change in the configuration of the first database is implemented based at least in part on the configuration change transaction record.

12. A method for database configuration migration, the method comprising:
-
operating a first database and a second database, the first database including a first configuration that specifies a number of data fields, a length of each data field, and a type of data for each data field, the second database including a second configuration that is a copy of the first configuration; implementing a change the configuration of the second database; storing a configuration change transaction record based at least in part on the change in the configuration of the second database; sending the configuration change transaction record; and changing the configuration of the first database based at least in part on the configuration change transaction record that is based on the changed configuration of the second database such that the changed first configuration is the same as the changed second configuration. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A system for database configuration migration, the system comprising:
-
means for operating a first database and a second database, the first database including a first configuration that specifies a first configuration having a number of data fields, a length of each data field, and a type of data for each data field, the second database including a second configuration that is a copy of the first configuration; means for implementing a change in the configuration of the second database; and means for storing a configuration change transaction record based at least in part on the change in the configuration of the second database; means for sending the configuration change transaction record; and means for changing the configuration of the first database based at least in part on the configuration change transaction record that is based on the changed configuration of the second database such that the changed first configuration is the same as the changed second configuration. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
