Abstract
Example solutions are disclosed for performing a distributed data query for a connected data set, such as a property graph or a relational database, distributed across a plurality of regions (e.g., different geographic regions) under data flow limitations. For a restrictive limitation, a first region stores a data entity that is subject to a data flow limitation, and a second region stores only a reference to the data entity (e.g., a pseudonymous reference). The query is executed in the first region, and at least a partial representation of the state is injected into the query for execution in the second region. The query locates the reference to the data entity in the second region, and the state of the query from the second region is returned. Query results from the plurality of regions are synthesized into a final result. Further solutions address prohibitive limitations when references are not permitted.
