Software Transport Check Integration in Upgrade Context

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium embodying a computer program for performing a method, said method comprising:

• receiving data from a production environment of a first software landscape, the data condensed to a bi-value form;
• executing a first upgrade compliance check upon the data;
• generating a pre-transport report including a first result of the first upgrade compliance check;
• receiving a released transport comprising the first upgrade compliance check and a second upgrade compliance check;
• executing the released transport upon the data;
• generating a transport report including a second result of the released transport;
• communicating the second result to a developer performing an impact analysis including the released transport, upon a buffer;
• and
• generating a buffer certificate documenting preceding efforts to generate the buffer, the buffer certificate including a cryptographic fingerprint, wherein:
• the data is stored in an in-memory database;
• the first upgrade compliance check is executed upon the data by an in-memory database engine of the in-memory database.

A computer system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a software program, executable on said computer system, the software program configured to cause an in-memory database engine to:
• receive data from a production environment of a first software landscape;
• execute a first upgrade compliance check upon the data;
• generate a pre-transport report including a first result of the first upgrade compliance check;
• receive a released transport comprising the first upgrade compliance check and a second upgrade compliance check;
• execute the released transport upon the data;
• generate a transport report including a second result of the released transport;
• communicate the second result to a developer;
• perform an impact analysis including the released transport, upon a buffer;
• and
• generate a buffer certificate documenting preceding efforts to generate the buffer, the buffer certificate including a cryptographic fingerprint.
