Handbook of Research on Innovations in Database Technologies and Applications: Current and Future Trends
Policy can be defined as a plan or guide to constrain the actions executed by an individual or a group. The Database Maintenance Policy establishes rules for the action of database designers that are executed in response to intrinsic and constant maintenance-related alteration needs, based on the designers’ empirical knowledge and work capacity. The definition of goals, implementation phases, results and desired outcomes is information associated with every policy or subset of rules.

In other fields of science, this behavior represents a challenge in ethical researches on concepts, methodologies and technologies aimed at optimizing and qualifying the actions involved in these continual changes to obtain better results.
