Abstract

A system and method for synchronizing a database comprising raw data and metadata derived from the raw data, but when the metadata has not yet been updated. The raw data and the metadata are first synchronized, with the raw data having been assigned a version number. After synchronization, any stale metadata will be updated and assigned the same version number as the raw data.
