In an example embodiment, a proxy object is delivered to a first schema having a first logical name and stored in the software object database, the proxy object referencing an object in a second schema having a second logical name. Any dependencies from the object in the second schema to the proxy object in the first schema are removed a cycle-free graph of dependencies between objects the software object database is generated. Objects are delivered the software object database using the cycle-free graph. A definition for the proxy object is created including the logical name for the first schema. The proxy object is delivered by replacing, at a time subsequent to the proxy object being delivered to the software object database, the logical name for the first schema stored in the definition with a physical name for the first schema.
