Abstract
A computer-implemented method for operating a database management system which includes a source database and a target database. A database management system is configured for asynchronously replicating data changes of the source database to the target database. The database management system receiving a request to perform a database statement. The method can identify the most recently committed one of a plurality of transactions having been committed in the source database before the receiving of the request. Identifying repeatedly the one of the plurality of transactions having been replicated most recently to the target database. Execution of the requested statement in the target database is delayed until an evaluation of the repeatedly identified most recently replicated transaction returns that the identified most recently committed transaction has been replicated to the target database. After the delaying execution, the method executes the requested statement in the target database.
