Title
Supporting database provenance under schema evolution
Abstract
Database schema upgrades are common in modern information systems, where the provenance of the schema is of much interest, and actually required to explain the provenance of contents generated by the database conversion that is part of such upgrades. Thus, an integrated management for data and metadata is needed, and the Archived Metadata and Provenance Manager (AM&PM) system is the first to address this requirement by building on recent advances in schema mappings and database upgrade automation. Therefore AM&PM (i) extends the Information Schema with the capability of archiving the provenance of the schema and other metadata, (ii) provides a timestamp based representation for the provenance of the actual data, and (iii) supports powerful queries on the provenance of the data and on the history of the metadata. In this paper, we present the design and main features of AM&PM, and the results of various experiments to evaluate its performance.
