Abstract: A method of sharing data in a multi-tenant database includes inspecting, by a processing device of a multiple tenant database, a sharer account to determine an existence of a link between an alias object in a target account and a database, wherein the database is linked to a first role object included in a share object in the sharer account. The method includes granting a second role object, in the target account, access rights to the alias object, wherein the first role object having one or more grants to one or more resources of the sharer account, and wherein the target account accesses the one or more resources using the one or more grants of the share object and using the alias object without at least one of copying the one or more resources or transmitting the one or more resources.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for implementing secure views for zero-copy data sharing in a multi-tenant database system are disclosed. A method includes generating a share object in a first account comprising a share role. The method includes associating view privileges for the share object such that an underlying detail of the share object comprises a secure view definition. The method includes granting, to a second account, cross-account access rights to the share role or share object in the first account. The method includes receiving a request from the second account to access data or services of the first account and providing a response to the second account based on the data or services of the first account. The method is such that the underlying detail of the share object that comprises the secure view definition is hidden from the second account and visible to the first account.

Abstract: A method for sharing data in a multi-tenant database includes generating a share object in a first account comprising a share role. The method includes associating one or more access rights with the share role, wherein the one or more access rights indicate which objects in the first account are accessible based on the share object. The method includes granting, to a second account, cross-account access rights to the share role or share object in the first account. The method includes receiving a request from the second account to access data or services of the first account. The method further includes providing a response to the second account based on the data or services of the first account.

Abstract: A cabin module for an aircraft comprises a section which has an upward-facing surface in an installed state of the cabin module, wherein the upward-facing surface of the section comprises an integrated drainage channel. An aircraft furthermore comprises at least one such cabin module.

Abstract: Methods and systems of managing database failure based on transaction request time is disclosed. A method includes copying a first dataset stored in a primary deployment to a secondary deployment to generate a second dataset. The method includes determining a first arrival time of a first request to perform a first transaction. The method includes determining a second arrival time of a second request to perform a second transaction. The method includes e00000xecuting the first transaction on the first dataset at the primary deployment in response to determining the first arrival time of the first request to perform the first transaction. The method includes executing the second transaction on the second dataset at the secondary deployment in response to determining the second arrival time of the second request to perform the second transaction.

Abstract: A method of sharing data in a multi-tenant database includes inspecting, by a processing device of a multiple tenant database, a sharer account to determine a presence of a grant to a second role object, in a target account, of access rights to a first role object included in the sharer account. The method includes granting the second role object, in the target account, access rights to an alias object. The first role object having one or more grants to the one or more resources of the sharer account. The target account accesses the one or more resources using the one or more grants of the first role object and using the alias object without at least one of copying the one or more resources or transmitting the one or more resources.

Abstract: A method for directing queries to encrypted database files includes acquiring a mapping that links a first encrypted file with a different encrypted file. The first encrypted file is generated based on a first encryption key. The method includes generating, by one or more processors based on the mapping, an updated mapping to link a second encrypted file with the different encrypted file. The second encrypted file is generated based on a second encryption key. The method includes determining an arrival time of a query. The method includes directing, based on the arrival time, the query to the first encrypted file or the second encrypted file.

Abstract: The subject technology receives first metadata corresponding to a set of micro-partitions. The subject technology stores a first data structure and a second data structure in storage as a first file and a second file, first data structure including the first metadata and a second data structure including second metadata, the first metadata corresponding to a set of micro-partitions, the second metadata for a grouping of the first metadata, the second data structure including information associating the second metadata to the first metadata. The subject technology stores third metadata for a table, the third metadata comprising information about data stored in a micro-partition of the table.

Abstract: Replication and failover of database data is disclosed. A method includes copying a first dataset of a first account stored in a primary deployment to a secondary deployment.

The method includes executing a first transaction on the first dataset at the secondary deployment in response to determining that the first dataset stored in the primary deployment is unavailable. The method includes executing a second transaction on a second dataset of a second account at the primary deployment while the first dataset of the first account stored in the primary deployment is unavailable.

Abstract: A method for encrypting database files includes generating a mapping for a plurality of encrypted files. A first encrypted file of the plurality of encrypted files is encrypted with a first encryption key. The method includes generating a second encrypted file by re-encrypting, for a period of time, data in the first encrypted file using a second encryption key. The first encrypted file remains accessible to one or more queries during the period of time. The method includes updating the mapping to associate the second encrypted file with the first encrypted file. The mapping is updated after the second encrypted file has been generated. The method includes preventing a query from accessing the first encrypted file after the second encrypted file has been generated.

Abstract: A networked device communication system can configure network devices (e.g., a primary and secondary database) to send and receive sequences of messages, such as replicated data, using one or more keypairs and wrapping keys. The sequences of messages can include an initial set of messages that are encrypted by a wrapping key, and further include another set of messages that are encrypted by a replaced staggered key. The sequence of messages can be configured to be decrypted without exporting keys of hardware security modules.
