Application: Distributing large amounts of global metadata using object files (Patent ID: US20240111784A1)
The patent filed by Snowflake Inc. describes a system for automatically generating and updating data dictionaries for shared data listings. The system includes a data listing distribution component that uses a global messaging framework and replication method to distribute data dictionaries to remote deployments in a data exchange. This allows for the distribution of listings, shared data, and data dictionaries to various geographic regions, enabling users within those regions to access the listings and shared data.
The method and system outlined in the patent involve writing data dictionaries to a global cloud object storage bucket, transmitting notifications to destination deployments for replication of shared data and data dictionaries, controlling visibility of shared data based on geographic regions, and updating data dictionaries as needed. The system also allows for the identification of destination deployments, replacement of previous versions of shared data and data dictionaries, and implementation of delay periods for overwriting and deleting data. Additionally, the patent describes operations for selectively controlling visibility, accessing visibility lists, and preventing consumers from viewing shared data and data dictionaries based on deployment location identifiers. The patent also covers the use of a global messaging framework for transmitting notifications and the utilization of replicated data dictionaries for providing shared data descriptions at destination deployments.
