Abstract

An original representation of an original set of data in a data source can be provided, and an updated representation of an updated set of data in the data source can be received. A change notification set that includes change notifications can be generated by comparing the updated representation with the original representation. The change notification set can represent a possible set of changes that yield the updated representation when starting with the original representation. The change notification set can be sent to a client of the data source. One or more requests from the client for data from the data source may be processed while obtaining the updated representation of the updated set of data. This processing can include adding one or more placeholders and matching the placeholder(s) with one or more items in the updated set of data.
