Abstract

Systems and methods that supply changes on-the-fly and without breaking execution of codes for schema changes in a peer-to-peer environment. The modification component supplies changes to peers or nodes in a topology by initially identifying dependencies (e.g., multiple level) that can be affected by the schema change, followed by performing the schema change to the codes or stored procedures. Accordingly, dependencies in an entire system can be refreshed, wherein multiple levels of dependencies can exist.
