🛡️ Zero-Downtime Cutover Protocol

Phase 1: Shadow Table Pre-Creation

Create the shadow table and delta log table with zero lock on active business transactions.

Phase 2: Delta Trigger Arming

Activate the change capture trigger. All real-time inserts, updates, and deletes are mirrored to the buffer table.

Phase 3: Chunked Background Migration

Execute the initial package-based bulk copy without exceeding SAP work process timeout limits.

Phase 4: Delta Drain & Reconciliation

Replay buffered deltas until lag drops to 0 seconds. Verify checksum hash parity across source and shadow.

Phase 5: Atomic CDS View Switch

Repoint the root CDS View Entity to select from the shadow table. Zero application downtime or transport lock.
