A data platform for managing an application as a first-class database object. The data platform includes at least one processor and a memory storing instructions that cause the at least one processor to perform operations including detecting a data request from a browser for a data object located on the data platform, executing a stored procedure, the stored procedure containing instructions that cause the at least one processor to perform additional operations including instantiating a User Defined Function (UDF) server, an application engine, and the application within a security context of the data platform based on a security policy determined by an owner of the data object. The data platform then communicates with the browser using the application engine as a proxy server.

First class database object server application

Systems and methods for an organization-level account for an organization on a data platform, users of which can possess administrative or management privileges with respect to the organization and across one or more others accounts of the organization.

Organization-level account on data platform

An anti-abuse system is provided for a data-platform. An anti-abuse scanner of the data-platform detects a creation of an application package by a provider of content to the data platform where the application package includes a set of files for deployment on the data platform. The anti-abuse scanner performs a review o the set of files to detect malicious content where the review is based on a set of analysis rules and generates a deployment decision for the application package based on a result of the review.

Application trust framework

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a region-specific events account that is used as a central place to store the events shared by consumers of shared applications in that region. For each of a set of provider accounts in a first region, a global account object corresponding to the provider account is replicated to a second region to establish a replicated global account object in the second region. An account data persistence object (DPO) of a first provider account of the set of provider accounts is modified to designate the first provider account as an events account. The events account is a central location within the second region where execution information generated by execution of applications shared with consumer accounts in the second region is stored. The replicated global account object corresponding to the first provider account is updated to designate the first provider account as the events account.

Events account for native app event sharing

A data platform for managing an application as a first-class database object. The data object can include User Interface (UI) components. The data application can be shared by a provider account to a plurality of consumer accounts using a share object and based on grant commands. The consumer accounts can deploy and operate the UI component based on the share object.

User interface framework for web applications

Techniques described herein can allow users to share cached results of an original query with other users while protecting sensitive information. The techniques described herein can check whether the other users have access to the underlying data queried before allowing those users to see the stored query results. That is, the system may perform privilege checks on the shared users before giving them access to the stored query results but without having to re-run the original query.

Privilege based access checks for query results

Provided herein are systems and methods for global data objects on a data platform where the global data objects are accessible at an organization level. In particular, an organization-level global data object provided by various embodiments can be used as a generic organization object that is owned by a specific organization, and can be managed (e.g., created, deleted, or modified) by use of a leader-based model.

Organization-level global data object on data platform

Techniques for creating, sharing, and using bundles (also referred to as packages) in a multi-tenant database are described herein. A bundle is a schema object with associated hidden schemas. A bundle can be created by a provider user and can be shared with a plurality of consumer users. The bundle can be used to enable code sharing and distribution without losing control while maintaining security protocols.

Bundle creation and distribution

A data platform for developing and deploying a data application. The data platform receives from a first user the data application and provider granted privileges including a consumer usage privilege and a consumer access to data privilege. The data platform authorizes the second user to access the data platform based on one or more consumer account privileges included in a set of account privileges. The data platform authorizes the second user to execute the data application based on the consumer usage privilege. During execution, the data platform authorizes the data application to access the provider database object based on the consumer access to data privilege, and authorizes the data application to access the consumer database object based on a provider access to data privilege provided by the second user.

Secure shared data application access

Disclosed is an execution information sharing system that duplicates execution information to a provider target (and other targets) as it is being loaded to a consumer target. A first log information object and a second log information object are generated. The first and second log information objects comprise information indicating a consumer target and information indicating a provider target respectively where execution information generated by an application shared with a consumer account of a data exchange is written. A first event unloader and a second event unloader are generated based on the first and second log information objects respectively, wherein the first and second event unloaders are both linked to the application using a mapping. In response to receiving execution information from the application, the execution information is forwarded to the consumer target and the provider target using the first event unloader and the second event unloader respectively.

Sharing events and other metrics in native applications

Embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a streamlined process for performing operations, such as data sharing and data replication, using multiple accounts. A global identity (also referred to as an organization user) may be employed, where the global identity may have access to multiple accounts across the same or different deployments. The global identity may switch between accounts from its login session and perform various tasks in the context of different accounts without undergoing further authentication.

Remote execution using a global identity

A shared database platform implements dynamic masking on data shared between users where specific data is masked, transformed, or otherwise modified based on preconfigured functions that are associated with user roles. The shared database platform can implement the masking at runtime dynamically in response to users requesting access to a database object that is associated with one or more masking policies.

Dynamic shared data object masking

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to sharing data using database roles. Database roles are generated within a database container of a provider account. Grants to a particular subset of the plurality of data objects of the database container may be assigned to each of the database roles, and each of the database roles are granted to a share object. The share object is mounted within a consumer account to generate an imported copy of each of the database roles. The imported copy of one or more of the database roles is granted to each of one or more account level roles of the consumer account. When a new object is added to a particular database role, it is immediately available for consumption by any account level roles to which the imported copy of the particular database role has been granted.

Fine-grained access control via database roles

A versioned schema of a data platform. A process of maintaining a call stack of executing objects of an application package having a versioned schema includes calling, by a first procedure executed by one or more processors, a second procedure of a versioned application instance, and determining, by the first procedure, a version of the second procedure based on a call context. In response to determining that the version of the second procedure is not in the call context, the first procedure determines a current version of the versioned application package adds the current version to the call context as the version of the second procedure.
