US Patent 10534675 ACL based open transactions in replication environment

A method for handling of open transactions in a data replication environment. The method includes querying one or more tables of a source database to determine a first open transaction associated with the one or more tables of the source database. The method further includes determining a database user that initiated the first open transaction. The method further includes querying one or more tables of the target database corresponding to the one or more tables of the source database associated with the first open transaction, to determine whether the database user has access privileges for the one or more tables of the target database and dynamically skipping replication of the first open transaction to the target database, such that the data replication system no longer waits for the first open transaction to complete.
