Abstract

An approach is provided to automatically resolve conflict between instantiation and ongoing data replication operations. In an embodiment, incremental change records that describe one or more database operations are received at a sink entity. Here, all of the one or more database operations have occurred in a second database after a particular time. A first database operation in the one or more database operations to a particular row in the first database is applied. When a conflict with a second database operation that operates on the particular row is detected, one or more compensating actions, which may, but are not limited to, be a different database operation and/or an operation that creates a conflict log entry, may be performed. Here, the second database operation has occurred in the second database prior to the particular time. When the second database operation is to be performed, an appropriate operation may be performed.
