Abstract

Parameter-based deployment control for database objects is provided, in which processes for deploying database artifacts into a database as database objects are implemented. Many different techniques may be used in executing such deployment processes, including whether and how to combine various deployment-related jobs, identify/record/assess/correct potential errors, govern or instruct artifact conversion operations, or generally manage available resources with respect to executing the deployment(s) efficiently. By providing for selectable parameter values that are executed in an efficient, e.g., hierarchical, manner, deployment procedures may be implemented in a highly efficient and customizable manner.
