API for programmatic retrieval and replay of database trace
First Claim
1. A system for supporting programmatic retrieval and replay of database trace data, said system comprising a processor configured to carry out instructions stored on computer readable media, said instructions comprising:
- instructions for a first functional element for retrieving database trace data;
instructions for a first exposed function call whereby custom computer processes can programmatically initiate the operation of said first functional element;
instructions for a second functional element for storing database trace data;
instructions for a third functional element for replaying database trace data; and
instructions for a third exposed function call whereby custom computer processes can programmatically initiate the operation of said third functional element.

Abstract
Trace and replay objects can be designed to automatically perform operations concerning database trace data upon invocation by custom computer processes. Trace data can be saved to any of variety of locations. It can be manipulated for the purpose of storage or replay. Trace data can be played back against any database server using numerous replay configuration options. Replay notifications allow data to be changed just before it is submitted to a database for execution, and allow immediate examination of replay results and validation of playback correctness. Thus, trace and replay objects greatly simplify manageability of trace data. Custom processes can now completely automate security audit and health monitoring of traced database servers. Automatic verification of new server releases and security packs can also be performed. Custom processes can use the provided objects to flexibly access and manipulate the retrieval, storage, and replay of database trace data.
