Application: Cross data center data federation for asset collaboration (Patent ID: US20240104501A1)
The patent filed by SAP SE describes a method for sharing data assets between customers onboarded at different data centers. The collaboration controller receives a request to share a data asset from a first customer with a second customer at a different data center. If the data asset is not already present at the second data center, it is replicated to provide access to the second customer. The system includes operations for determining the presence of the data asset, replicating it, and managing modifications and deletions based on validity periods, offboarding, or customer requests.
The method involves determining the location of customers across different data centers, replicating data assets to provide access, and managing the lifecycle of shared data assets. It includes features such as bypassing replication if the data asset is already present, rendering profiles visible to customers, propagating modifications, and deleting data assets based on various conditions. This system ensures efficient sharing of data assets between customers onboarded at different data centers while maintaining control over access, modifications, and deletions to align with customer preferences and data governance policies.
