Abstract

See full text

A method and system for performing a live update of a manufacturing database. The user can automatically change database tables, add files, executable programs, and new modeling schema at remote sites from a central location. Manufacturing processes can be modified or changed entirely to introduce a new product line. Clients at the remote sites receive notification that a change in the database will occur so that works in progress can be completed. Clients complete their transactions but connections to the application server are maintained to facilitate resuming production. No new transactions are allowed at the remote site while the update is in progress. Downtime is minimal as the system is always running and the user can schedule the update at the most convenient time for individual sites. A rollback copy of the data is maintained to allow users to return to a version utilized prior to the last update.
