METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ANALYSIS OF DATABASE RECORDS

1 . A method for analyzing data files on a management server having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform, the method comprising:

retrieving data records from a database to the storage in the management server,

analyzing the retrieved records utilizing the at least one processor;

creating a map of the retrieved records utilizing the management server's at least one processor;

displaying the map of the retrieved records to a user,

wherein the map visually indicates the status of the retrieved data records to be at least one of the following:

all records present, unexpected break in the records, missing records, records not requested, ignored records, no activity, and auditing information unavailable.

2 . The method of claim 1 wherein the user selects to ignore the missing records.

3 . The method of claim 1 further comprising the steps of

requesting missing data records stored in the database;

retrieving the missing data records from the database;

combining the retrieved records and the missing data records;

recreating the map based on the combining; and

redisplaying the map.

4 . The method of claim 1 further comprising the steps of:

requesting previously un-requested records from a server via the communications platform;

receiving the previously un-requested records from the server via the communications platform;

storing the previously un-requested records in the database

combining the retrieved records and the previously un-requested records;

recreating the map based on the combining; and

redisplaying the map.

5 . A machine readable non-transitory and tangible medium having information recorded thereon for analyzing data files on a management server having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform, to causes the machine to perform the following:

retrieving data records from a database to the storage in the management server,

analyzing the retrieved records utilizing the at least one processor;

creating a map of the retrieved records utilizing the management server's at least one processor;

displaying the map of the retrieved records to a user,

wherein the map visually indicates the status of the retrieved data records to be at least one of the following:

all records present, unexpected break in the records, missing records, records not requested, ignored records, no activity and auditing information unavailable.

6 . The medium of claim 5 wherein the user can select to ignore the missing records.

7 . The medium of claim 5 further comprising the steps of

requesting missing data records stored in the database;

retrieving the missing data records from the database;

combining the retrieved records and the missing data records;

recreating the map based on the combining; and

redisplaying the map.

8 . The medium of claim 5 further comprising the steps of:

requesting previously un-requested records from a server via the communications platform;

receiving the previously un-requested records from the server via the communications platform;

storing the previously un-requested records in the database

9 . A system for visually displaying the status of data records comprising:

a data management server for requesting data records via a communications link from a plurality of servers;

a memory for storing the data records from the plurality of servers; and

wherein the data management server processes the data records using a processor and generates a visual representation of the status of the requested data records for display on a user terminal.

10 . The system of claim 9 wherein the data management server can request missing data records via the communications from the plurality of servers.

11 . The system of claim 9 wherein a part of the data management server, the memory, and the plurality of servers may be implemented in a cloud computing environment.
