Performing logical validation on loaded data in a database

An aspect of performing logical validation on loaded data in a database includes a rule engine configured to, in response to an addition or update of a new rule for logical validation, determine a delta rule that includes a delta part of the new rule with respect to existing rules. An aspect also includes an object container containing object instances that have been validated using the existing rules. The object instance contains only data related to the existing rules and extracted from the database. An aspect further includes a validation engine configured to, upon determining that the delta rule relates to extra data other than the data contained in the object instance, extract the extra data from a database and add it to corresponding object instances, and use at least a part of the new rule to perform logical validation on the relevant object instances in the object container.
