Abstract
A method for directing queries to encrypted database files includes acquiring a mapping that links a first encrypted file with a different encrypted file. The first encrypted file is generated based on a first encryption key. The method includes generating, by one or more processors based on the mapping, an updated mapping to link a second encrypted file with the different encrypted file. The second encrypted file is generated based on a second encryption key. The method includes directing, using the mapping, a first query to the first encrypted file when the first query arrives before generating the updated mapping; and. The method includes directing, using the updated mapping, a second query to the second encrypted file when a second query arrives after generating the updated mapping.
