Using your analogy if heaven is a database, then we as people are simple recorded variables once we die: i.e. 1, 7, X, .002, jam, red, etc. So as living beings we are unrecorded variables, variables who still have potential and have not defined this existence yet, like the weather, we can predict what the weather could be, but we can't record the results until it actually occurs.
To continue with your computer analogy we would be unsolved formulas that the program, "god," is still computing. Once "god" finishes computing our formulas we then get recorded in the database. This analogy would suggest though that there is no omnipotent "god" though, because a omnipotent "god" would not need to calculate a formula because "god" would already know the answer so computing would be worthless. This would also suggest that we, as formulas, have no free will since the result for a formula will always be the same, and will exist even before the result is calculated.
I dislike your computer analogy. Far to static for my liking.
