Abstract
Automatically determining the conformance of database server schema. Maintaining conformance of database schema helps manage and sustain database driven services and applications. Schema for a pair of randomly selected databases are generated and compared. A diffgram is generated from the difference of the database schema. An alarm message can then be sent to an alarm server with the differences of the comparable databases. A master schema dump can be compared to selected database servers within the database system concurrently with the comparable database pair schema processing. A diffgram is generated in response to the comparison between the selected database schema and the master schema.
