Policy framework for automatic data management

The popularity of e-business has lead to an exponential and unstructured growth in the applications space coupled with an increase in the database size. This has led to an increase in the complexity of the database management task. Moreover, organizations are increasingly concerned about the privacy of data. Thus, managing such large ever growing and privacy-preserving database is complex and time-consuming task. In this paper, we describe a policy-based framework for autonomic database management using business objects. Our system automatically manages data based on events.
