Solution Overview

Problem

Existing data store architectures are often inaccurately represented due to lack of updates in initial design documents, leading to incorrect operations and suboptimal performance, especially when multiple applications modify the architecture without updating the documentation.

Innovation Solution

A complementary system comprising a 'Data Store Analyzer' module that automatically recognizes and tracks data store architecture changes by analyzing data store structure and user queries, generating an approximation of the architecture without requiring prior query knowledge.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If initial design documents are used to represent data store architecture, then the architecture information is available at the initial stage, but the documents become inaccurate and outdated when multiple applications modify the architecture

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvearchitecture information accuracyVSAvoidtime to update documentation

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically detects and tracks data store architecture changes by analyzing data store structures and user queries without requiring manual intervention. The architecture approximation is generated and updated autonomously, eliminating the need for manual documentation updates while maintaining accuracy despite multiple application modifications

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system continuously monitors the data store and compares actual architecture with the recorded approximation, detecting discrepancies and automatically updating the architecture information. This feedback mechanism ensures the documentation remains synchronized with the actual data store state without manual intervention

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If manual tracking of architecture changes is performed, then the initial design document can be maintained, but human effort is extremely high and updates are delayed

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvearchitecture detection accuracyVSAvoidspeed of architecture updates

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system replaces manual mechanical processes of architecture tracking with automated computational analysis. By using software to analyze data store structures and generate architecture approximations, the system achieves both high precision in detecting architectural changes and high speed in updating the documentation, eliminating the trade-off between accuracy and productivity

Inventive Principle:

Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary architecture approximation that serves as an automatic representation of the data store structure. This intermediary is continuously updated through automated analysis of data store schemas and queries, providing accurate and timely architecture information without requiring direct manual intervention

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If standard data management tools are used, then simple company requirements are satisfied, but sophisticated data store management needs cannot be met

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedata store management capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system provides multi-functional capabilities that work across different data store types and complexity levels. It can automatically generate architecture approximations for simple data stores while also handling complex scenarios involving multiple applications and frequent modifications, making it adaptable to both basic and sophisticated data store management needs without requiring separate specialized tools

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
