Abstract
Multiple applications, which share one common database, will evolve over time by their very nature. Often, former versions need to stay available, so database developers find themselves maintaining co-existing schema versions of multiple applications in multiple versions—usually with handwritten delta code—which is highly error-prone and explains significant costs in software projects. We showcase IVD, a tool using the richer semantics of a bidirectional database evolution language to generate all the delta code automatically, easily providing co-existing schema versions within one database. IVD automatically decides on an optimized physical database schema serving all schema versions to transparently optimize the performance for the current workload.
