SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CROSS-REGIONAL BACK UP OF DISTRIBUTED DATABASES ON A CLOUD SERVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18623946 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CROSS-REGIONAL BACK UP OF DISTRIBUTED DATABASES ON A CLOUD SERVICE
The present disclosure pertains to systems and methods for backing up a distributed database provided across servers in different geographic regions. In one example, the system includes a processor that can generate and transmit commands to duplicate the distributed database in object databases on servers in the first region, duplicate the object databases on servers in a second region, and initiate a new distributed database on servers in the second region when an error is detected in the first region.
- Generate and transmit commands to duplicate the distributed database in object databases on servers in the first region.
- Generate and transmit commands to duplicate the object databases on servers in a second region.
- Initiate a new distributed database on servers in the second region when an error is detected in the first region.
- Populate the new distributed database using the object databases on servers in the second region.
- Re-route traffic from the original distributed database to the new distributed database when necessary.
Potential Applications: - Disaster recovery in case of server failures. - Data redundancy for increased reliability. - Geographic load balancing for improved performance.
Problems Solved: - Minimizing downtime in case of server errors. - Ensuring data integrity and availability. - Efficiently managing distributed databases across multiple regions.
Benefits: - Enhanced data protection and security. - Improved system reliability and fault tolerance. - Seamless failover and disaster recovery capabilities.
Commercial Applications: Title: Geographic Database Backup System This technology can be utilized by large enterprises with distributed databases, cloud service providers, and data centers to ensure data availability and reliability across multiple geographic regions. It can also be valuable for companies with strict data protection and disaster recovery requirements.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system ensure data consistency across distributed databases in different regions? 2. What are the key factors to consider when implementing a geographic database backup system?
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for backing up a distributed database provided as a database instance across servers within a first geographic region. In one example, such a system may include at least one processor configured to: generate and transmit a command to duplicate the distributed database in object databases on first region servers; generate and transmit a command to duplicate the object databases on servers in at least a second geographic region independent from servers in the first region; and, when an error is detected with at least one server within the first region: generate and transmit a command to initiate a new distributed database on second region servers, generate and transmit a command to populate the new distributed database using the object databases on second region servers, and generate and transmit a command to re-route traffic from the distributed database to the new distributed database.
