NET CHANGE MIRRORING OPTIMIZATION ACROSS TRANSACTIONS IN REPLICATION ENVIRONMENT

In optimizing net change data replication across a plurality of transactions in a replication environment, a source replication engine at a source database system: obtains a window in a source database log for the net change data replication; for a given row identifier found in the source database log, identifies an initial operation and a latest operation across the plurality of transactions within the window; compares the initial operation and the latest operation for the given row identifier to determine a net change to a row associated with the given row identifier; and stores the net change as a final operation on the given row identifier in an optimization repository for replication to a target database. The operations stored in the optimization repository are then sent to a target database system for replication to the target database.
