Abstract: Systems and methods for generating object references with selectable scopes are provided. The systems and methods perform operations including calling, by a first entity, a reference generator function using one or more arguments associated with a database object that the first entity is authorized to access according to a first set of access privileges, the one or more arguments comprising a scope definition that defines persistence of a reference. The operations include obtaining, from the reference generator function, a reference to the database object, the reference persisting according to the scope definition. The operations include passing the reference to a second entity to enable the second entity to perform one or more database operations on the database object according to a second set of access privileges derived from the first set of access privileges.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide for replicating a share across deployments of a data platform, where the share can be on a source deployment and the share can be replicated on one or more target deployments, and where the share is replicated with one or more database objects of the source deployment associated with the share. Some embodiments analyze the share to be replicated and, based on the analysis, determine one or more database objects that would be replicated to the one or more target deployments to enable a replica of the share on the one or more target deployments.

Abstract: The subject technology determines a set of share objects in a replication group. The subject technology, for each object from the set of share objects, determines a set of permissions for a set of objects of databases that has been granted to each share object from the replication group. The subject technology, for each permission from the set of permissions, determines a set of dependencies, the set of dependencies comprising a second set of objects. The subject technology generates a graph structure based at least in part on the set of share objects, the set of permissions, and the set of dependencies. The subject technology traverses at least a portion of the graph structure to determine a final set of dependencies for replication. The subject technology performs a replication process based at least in part on the final set of dependencies.

Abstract: The embodiments described herein provide means for replicating external stages between deployments of e.g., a cloud data lake using a modified storage integration. The modified storage integration may be defined with a set of storage locations, wherein the storage integration comprises a base URL for each of the set of storage locations and wherein each storage location identifies a remote deployment where a cloud platform is hosted and a geographic region of the remote deployment. An external stage object may be bound to the storage integration, wherein the external stage object facilitates a data loading operation that is currently in progress on the first storage location. In response to detecting an outage at the first storage location, the data loading operation that was in progress on the first storage location may be continued at the second storage location using the storage integration.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques for replicating external stages between deployments of e.g., a cloud data lake using a modified storage integration. The modified storage integration may be defined with multiple storage locations that it can point to, as well as a designation of an active storage location. The storage integration may also be defined with base file paths for each storage location as well as a relative file path which together may serve to synchronize data loading operations between deployments when e.g., a fail-over occurs from one deployment to another. The storage integration may be replicated from a first deployment to a second deployment, and when database replication occurs, an external stage may be replicated to the second deployment and bound to the replicated storage integration. Thus, a fail-over to the second deployment may result in a seamless transition of data loading processes to the second deployment.

Abstract: A method of implementing sub-table replication starts with the processor detecting a first update to an entitlements table. The processor then performs incremental replication of the data table by causing a full inventory replication at a next refresh to be executed for provider accounts associated with the provider account identifiers in the entitlements table. Other embodiments are also described herein.

Abstract: A system for sub-table replication within a materialized view of a source data table. A materialized view of a source data table is generated based on a query, the source data table having a plurality of data table rows associated with a plurality of client identifiers and including an entitlements column and data content, the entitlements column including a plurality of provider account identifiers and a plurality of consumer account identifiers. An update to an entitlements table of the source data table is detected where the entitlements table includes a plurality of entitlements table rows and where the entitlements table rows are associated with the client identifiers, the consumer account identifiers, and the provider account identifiers. An update to the source data table based on the first update to the entitlements table is detected, and an incremental replication of the materialized view of the source data table is performed.

Abstract: A method of implementing sub-table replication starts with the processor detecting an update to an entitlements table. The processor performs filtering of a data table based on the update to the entitlements table. The data table including an entitlements column. The processor detects an update to the entitlements column and performs incremental replication of the data table by causing a version-based replication to be executed. Other embodiments are also described herein.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for configuring replication group objects. A system includes at least one hardware processor coupled to memory and configured to decode a replication request received from a client device of a data provider. The replication request indicates a plurality of account objects for replication. The plurality of account objects associated with a corresponding plurality of account object types. A replication group object is generated based on the replication request. The replication group object includes a manifest. The manifest lists the plurality of account objects. The replication of the plurality of account objects is performed from a source account of the data provider into at least one target account. The replication is based on the manifest of the replication group object.
