Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed to implement a real-time data validation system that prevents problematic updates from being replicated from a primary database to a replica database. In embodiments, the data validation system injects a time delay into the replication process, so that when an update in a replication stream fails a specified data validation, the data validation system will prevent the update from being applied to the replica. In embodiments, the replication process is halted, a snapshot of the replica database is taken during the halt, and replication to the replica is resumed. Accordingly, if the problematic update is later confirmed to be invalid, the replica database can be rolled back to a point before the problematic update. Advantageously, the disclosed system can be used to implement a variety of data validations on top of a database replication process to protect the replica database from receiving undesired updates.
