View variants in database schema mapping

A database system comprising:

• a computer system;
• and
• a data storage device having stored thereon executable program code which, when executed by the computer system, causes the computer system to:
• receive a data model which models data in a first database schema in the database system;
• use the received data model to generate a first data view of a first instance of the first database schema in the database system, including referencing, using a first view variant, one or more data tables including the first instance of the first database schema to generate the first data view;
• and
• use the received data model to generate a second data view of a second instance of the first database schema in the database system, including referencing, using a second view variant, one or more data tables including the second instance of the first database schema to generate the second data view.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer executable program code which, when executed on a computer system, causes the computer system to perform steps of:

• receiving a data model which models data in a first database schema in the database system;
• using the received data model to generate a first data view of a first instance of the first database schema in the database system, including referencing, using a first view variant, one or more data tables including the first instance of the first database schema to generate the first data view;
• and
• using the received data model to generate a second data view of a second instance of the first database schema in the database system, including referencing, using a second view variant, one or more data tables including the second instance of the first database schema to generate the second data view.
