Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for batch ingestion of data into a table of a database. A method includes determining a notification indicating a presence of a user file received from a client account to be ingested into a database. The method includes identifying data in the user file and identifying a target table of the database to receive the data in the user file. The method includes generating an ingest task indicating the data and the target table. The method includes assigning the ingest task to an execution node of an execution platform, wherein the execution platform comprises a plurality of execution nodes operating independent of a plurality of shared storage devices collectively storing database data. The method includes registering metadata concerning the target table in a metadata store after the data has been fully committed to the target table by the execution node.
