See full text

A method for linking database table elements across a plurality of databases is provided. The method comprises submitting a query to a first database specifying a first data element and a second data element, wherein the second data element resides in a table in the first database and determining that a table containing the first data element specified in the query is not present in the first database, a component resident in the first database sending a message to a second database requesting identification of tables containing data element associations that include the first data element, connecting a data element association across the first and second databases to identify at least one linking path between the first data element and the second data element, and selecting one of the linking paths of data element associations to link the first data element and the second data element and executing the query.
