I was just talking to David Holt about this and he suggested I tap the brain
trust. :)
I was wondering if there is a database design pattern for a situation where I
have some template structure
let's say
tA <->> tB <->> tC (records across these tables are the template, the
template is a whole object graph rooted at one record in tA)
where the templates can be configured on a per tenant basis (so, the templates
themselves are records that define defaults and new ones can be added when new
tenants or templates are added). I need to make a copy of a template that a
tenant uses and make it local to a user (under that tenant) who can then
customize the values in that template for their needs.
It's basically a class/instance kind of structure, but at the data level in the
database. It's as if I need to copy an EOs from one table to another where the
destination table has a few more attributes than the source table did. It's
made more complicated by the fact that I need to copy that template object
graph, not just one EO.
Any suggestions?
*Hopes beyond hope*
Thanks.
