Application: Data stream replication using staggered encryption (Patent ID: US20240195785A1)

The patent filed by Snowflake Inc. describes a method for encoding database data in a series of data files using encryption keys and transmitting them between database deployments. The method involves encoding the data based on encryption keys, including a first encryption key and a second encryption key, and transmitting the data files from one deployment to another.

The method includes encoding database data in one portion of a data file based on a first encryption key, while encoding the first encryption key itself in another portion of the same file based on a second encryption key. The data files are transmitted from one database deployment to another, with the second data file preceding the first data file in the data stream. Additionally, the method involves periodically regenerating encryption keys and encoding configuration messages for secure transmission between deployments.
