Configurable update rules for composite data products

A device, comprising:

• a memory comprising instructions;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
• receiving a data product definition for a downstream data product, wherein the data product definition identifies one or more upstream data products on which the downstream data product depends;
• receiving data indicating a latest build for each upstream data product;
• determining, based on the received data and one or more user-defined update rules for the downstream data product, whether an update condition is satisfied;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the update condition is satisfied, triggering a build of the downstream data product.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon, that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:

• receiving a data product definition for a downstream data product, wherein the data product definition identifies one or more upstream data products on which the downstream data product depends;
• receiving data indicating the latest build for each upstream data product;
• determining, based on the received data and one or more user-defined update rules for the downstream data product, whether an update condition is satisfied;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the update condition is satisfied, triggering a build of the downstream data product.
