Abstract
Described herein are techniques for replicating external stages between deployments of e.g., a cloud data lake using a modified storage integration. The modified storage integration may be defined with multiple storage locations that it can point to, as well as a designation of an active storage location. The storage integration may also be defined with base file paths for each storage location as well as a relative file path which together may serve to synchronize data loading operations between deployments when e.g., a fail-over occurs from one deployment to another. The storage integration may be replicated from a first deployment to a second deployment, and when database replication occurs, an external stage may be replicated to the second deployment and bound to the replicated storage integration. Thus, a fail-over to the second deployment may result in a seamless transition of data loading processes to the second deployment.
