Abstract

Systems and methods of loopback control in multi-active database synchronization are provided. A first database instance and a second database instance are configured with two-way synchronization. A synchronization tool detects a first log change in a first operation log associated with the first database instance. The first log change includes a first operation entry associated with a first data operation on a first data record in the first database instance. The first data record includes a first synchronization tag field comprising a first source tag representing a first data source associated with the first data operation on the first data record. If the source tag contains the identification of the second database instance, the synchronization tool skips the first operation entry, without synchronizing the first data operation to the second database instance to avoid data loopback.
