Abstract

Systems and methods for data publishing. A back end server collects source data and generates a current publication database from the collected source data. The back end database server also copies the current publication database to an offline database. A front end server directs queries to an online database. After the current publication database is copied to the offline database, the front end server alternates the online and offline databases so that the offline database becomes online for data delivery and the online database becomes offline to prevent data delivery. An automation control database managed by the back end server contains job control data for instructing the front end server which of the associated databases is online and which of the associated databases is offline.
