Abstract
An abstraction engine receives requests identifying a source application and a logical identifier and maps the request attributes to a stored procedure. The stored procedure invokes a native database call with respect to a database and returns the response to the abstraction later, which reformats the response to an object having <key, value> pairs that is independent of the database protocol or organization. Stored procedures may be mapped to various combinations of attributes of requests, which may include attributes such as a user identifier and application version. The stored procedure may return data from a particular database location or perform more complex functions such as filtering functions with using predefined filter criteria and locations or a filtering criteria and/or location derived from the request.
