Patent number: 11455217Abstract: Transaction consistency query support is available for replicated data from recovery log to external data stores. An external data store is populated with records using entries of a change data table. The change data table has entries for each transaction that has committed and is to be replicated, and each of the entries stores information for each log entry in a recovery log from a database management system. Each log entry identifies a transactional change of data and a transaction completion indicator of one of commit and abort. In response to receiving a query about a transaction of the transactions, a set of records are retrieved from the external data store for the transaction. From the set of records, records whose sequence identifier values are larger than a maximum transaction commit sequence identifier are removed. From the set of records, remaining records having transaction consistency are returned.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2017Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Serge Bourbonnais, Austin F.
