Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 13:
14. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform:
receiving user input from a user interface;
identifying, in the received user input, an indication of a first lifecycle operation corresponding to a first entry in a template linking the first lifecycle operation to information used for generating a first command for invoking a first computer program that, when executed by a computer system, operates on a data store and causes the first lifecycle operation to be performed on the data store,
wherein the template includes a plurality of entries corresponding to a respective plurality of lifecycle operations, each of the plurality of lifecycle operations being a lifecycle operation for managing how data is structured in the data store by creating, deleting, or altering one or more data structures used for managing data in the data store, wherein the plurality of entries includes the first entry;
based on information in the first entry, identifying in the received user input a first configuration value associated with the first lifecycle operation; and
indirectly invoking performance of the first lifecycle operation on the data store at least in part by:
formatting the first configuration value as at least a portion of at least one argument to the first command for invoking the first computer program to perform the first lifecycle operation on the data store; and
invoking, via the first command with the at least one argument, the first computer program that, when executed, performs the first lifecycle operation on the data store.
