Systems and techniques for extending data flows are thus described. In one
aspect, an article includes one or more machine-readable media storing
instructions operable to cause one or more machines to perform
operations. The operations can include receiving extension information
identifying an extension of a first object in a data processing system
landscape, accessing data flow information to identify one or more data
flows that involve the first object, and extending, on the basis of
identifying the one or more data flows as involving the first object, at
least some of the one or more data flows so that information in the
extension is conveyed between instances of the first object and instances
of a second object during data processing in the data processing system
landscape. The identified data flows convey stored information from one
object to another.
