Data validation and replication across databases

The patent US12008017B2 outlines a computer-implemented method for merging data from one or more source servers to one or more destination servers. The process begins with a processor determining a series of database events, which include operations such as writing, deleting, or modifying data in source database tables. This determination involves accessing log files to gather the relevant database events and appending them to an event queue associated with a specific transaction. The method further includes validating subsets of these database events based on their quantities and the sequences of event identifiers generated by the source servers. Upon successful validation, the method replicates the database events to the destination servers according to the identified source schema.

Additionally, the patent details various validation techniques to ensure data integrity during the merging process. These include comparing the number of entries in the source database tables to the number of events in the subsets, as well as checking for sequential event identifiers. The system is designed to maintain a hold on the merge request if any database events are found to be missing, and it can generate alerts if events are missing for a specified time period. The replication process also involves comparing the source schema with the schema of the destination servers to ensure compatibility. Overall, the patent presents a comprehensive approach to managing and validating database operations during data merging, enhancing reliability and accuracy in data replication tasks.
