US Patent 12019623 Data transfer resiliency during bulk to streaming transition

An indication to migrate requested data objects stored in a source database environment to a destination database environment is received. Some of data objects have many-to-one relationships with other data objects in the source database environment. At least one snapshot file generated by the source database environment is transferred to a destination database environment in bulk transfer mode. Subsequent incoming data received during bulk transfer mode, after the indication is stored in a temporary table. Upon completion of migration of the requested data objects the system transitions from bulk transfer mode to streaming mode. The subsequent incoming data from the temporary table is transferred to the destination database environment in response to the transition to streaming mode. Additional data received after the temporary table is empty is transferred from the source database environment to the destination database environment without use of the temporary table.
