Snowflake had two patents in ecommerce during Q1 2024. Snowflake Inc’s patent filed in Q1 2024 describes a method for implementing sub-table replication. The processor detects updates to an entitlements table and filters a data table based on these updates. Incremental replication of the data table is then performed using version-based replication.

The patent filed by Snowflake Inc. describes a method for implementing sub-table replication in a data platform. The method involves receiving an inclusion list indicating rows to replicate to a provider account, detecting updates to an entitlements table, generating a subset of rows based on the update, and performing incremental replication to a different provider account. The process includes identifying rows associated with a client identifier, filtering data tables based on metadata, and executing version-based replication for incremental updates.
The patent also covers a data platform and machine-storage medium implementing the described method. The platform includes a processor and memory storing instructions for receiving inclusion lists, detecting entitlements table updates, generating row subsets, and performing incremental replication. It further involves identifying rows based on client identifiers, replicating micro-partitions, transmitting data over a network, and executing version-based replication. The machine-storage medium contains machine-readable instructions for the same operations, emphasizing the efficient and accurate replication of data subsets across different provider accounts.
