ABSTRACT:
Methods, apparatus and articles of manufacture for ensuring coherency between queries and data definition frameworks used to describe and access data. One embodiment provides a computer-implemented method of processing queries requesting data accessed using a data definition framework in a computerized environment. The method includes receiving a query from a requesting entity, wherein the query is configured to access data via a data definition framework referenced in the query and determining whether the data definition framework is current. If the data definition framework referenced in the query is not current and has been replaced by a different data definition framework then the query may be run against the data using the data definition framework referenced in the query and the requesting entity may be notified of the different data definition framework. Alternatively, the requesting entity may be notified of the different data definition framework without running the query.
