Abstract:
Systems and methods consistent with the invention may include generating, using a processor of the computer system, a definition file of a first format for the data object, generating a database table, generating a mapping between the definition file and the database table, linking the definition file to a data source by including a path of the data source in the definition file, the data source including an attribute, executing, using the processor, a query to extract the attribute from the data source, importing the extracted attribute into the database table using the mapping between the definition file and the database table, and storing, in the memory device, the definition file, the database table, and the attribute for generation of the data object with the attribute.
