Data coherency between trusted DBMS and untrusted DBMS

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a method for processing data in a database engine. The method includes storing a first instance of a first table in the database engine in plaintext. Encryption information about encryption methods and encryption keys of at least one predefined column of the first table may be maintained. In response to data changes in the column, first log entries for the data changes may be written in plaintext. The data changes may be encrypted by an encryption component using the encryption information. This results in encrypted data changes. Second log entries for the encrypted data changes may be written and applied to a second instance of the first table. The second instance of the first table is stored at a further database engine.
