Abstract
This disclosure provides methods and techniques of data replication involving cross replication group (RG) references. Example methods, systems, and techniques are disclosed regarding batch database replication (e.g., backup) and failover (e.g., automatic transition to a backup) between multiple database deployments or database providers. For example, a system causes database data to be stored in a primary deployment and replicated in one or more secondary deployments. In the event that data in the primary deployment is unavailable, transactions may be executed on one or more of the secondary deployments. When the original primary deployment becomes available again, any transactions executed on secondary deployments may be propagated to the primary deployment. The system may be configured such that queries on the database data are executed on the primary deployment at any time when the primary deployment is available.
