Rapidly deploying virtual database applications using data model analysis

Techniques are described for creating a first data abstraction model for a first database. Embodiments analyze the first database to determine a first set of structural characteristics, and analyze a second database to determine a second set of structural characteristics. The analyzed second database is associated with a second data abstraction model. The first set of structural characteristics is compared with the second set of structural characteristics to identify one or more similarities between the two sets of structural characteristics. Embodiments then create the first data abstraction model for the first database, based on the identified similarities and the second data abstraction model.
