ABSTRACT:
A robust integrated database system merging operations from two or more individual database systems that uses a system logging table created in one of the databases to log system data and requested changes to the system data. The inherent robustness developed for one database is exploited to provide robustness for the entire integrated system. During normal operation, the system logging table stores log data. After a failure, the log data in the system table allows an integrator to query the databases as to the status of any previously pending operations and to thereby recover from the failure.
