According to one embodiment, a method, computer system, and computer program product for performing data synchronization between a source DBMS, comprising a trusted database, and a target DBMS, comprising an untrusted datastore and a trusted datastore, is disclosed. The present invention may include upon the source DBMS performing an update to an object in the trusted source database, sending the object change to a trusted data replication engine, encrypting the object change, sending the encrypted object change with a related decryption key to the target DBMS, upon receiving the encrypted object change and the related decryption key at the target DBMS, searching an object related to the object change in the untrusted target data store, identifying a decryption key for the searched object, replacing the identified decryption key by the received decryption key, and integrating the encrypted object change in encrypted form into the untrusted target data store.

Restricting data access to target databases

The present disclosure relates to a method for enabling access to data of a data analysis system by a set of one or more external database systems. The data analysis system comprises a source database system and target database system. The data analysis system is configured for synchronizing the data in the source database system with the target database system using a primary source transaction log in the source database system. The method comprises: creating a secondary transaction log. Data changes applied at the target database system may be received from the target database system. At least one log entry that represents each received data change may be creating in the secondary transaction log. The secondary transaction log may be used by the set of external database systems for applying data changes according to the secondary transaction log, thereby storing the data in the set of external database systems.

Access to data of a data analysis system by external database systems

In an approach, a processor receives a data manipulation request on a target database. A processor sends the data manipulation request to a source database. The source database attempts to persist a data manipulation action relating to the data manipulation request. Responsive to a successful attempt to persist the data manipulation action: the source database sends a log position of the data manipulation action to a data replication engine; a processor replicates the data manipulation request triggering the data manipulation action in the target database; and a processor confirms to the target database that the data manipulation action in the target database has been completed.
