This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18185872 titled 'TENANT-LEVEL DATABASE RECOVERY

The abstract describes a system and method for recovering a database tenant to a specific point in time, involving the creation of a new database instance, selection and recovery of backup data, export and import of database artifacts, and deletion of the temporary database instance.

• Reception of an instruction to recover a specific database tenant to a specific point in time
• Creation of a new database instance for the recovery process
• Selection and execution of the recovery of backup data based on the specified point in time
• Export of database artifacts from the recovered tenant to storage
• Truncation of the original database artifacts from the initial database instance
• Import of the recovered database artifacts back to the original database instance
• Deletion of the temporary database instance after the recovery process is complete

Potential Applications: - Data recovery and restoration in database management systems - Disaster recovery solutions for businesses and organizations - Database maintenance and optimization tools

Problems Solved: - Efficient and accurate recovery of specific database tenants to a desired point in time - Minimization of data loss and downtime in database recovery processes

Benefits: - Improved data management and recovery processes - Enhanced database security and reliability - Cost-effective solutions for database maintenance and recovery

Commercial Applications: Title: Database Recovery and Restoration System This technology can be utilized by IT companies, data centers, and cloud service providers to offer reliable and efficient database recovery services to their clients. It can also be integrated into database management software for improved data maintenance and disaster recovery capabilities.

Questions about Database Recovery and Restoration System: 1. How does this system ensure the security and integrity of the recovered database artifacts? - The system uses encryption and authentication protocols to secure the export and import of database artifacts during the recovery process.

Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods include reception of an instruction to recover a first database tenant of a first database instance to a first point in time, the first database tenant associated with first database artifacts of the first database instance, and the first database instance including two or more database tenants and, in response to the instruction, creation of a second database instance, selection of backup data of the first database instance based on the first point in time, execution of a recovery of the backup data on the second database instance, export of second database artifacts of the first database tenant from the second database instance to a storage, truncation of the first database artifacts from the first database instance, import of the second database artifacts from the storage to the first database instance, and deletion of the second database instance.
