Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for implementing secure views for zero-copy data sharing in a multi-tenant database system are disclosed. A method includes generating a share object in a first account comprising a share role. The method includes associating view privileges for the share object such that an underlying detail of the share object comprises a secure view definition. The method includes granting, to a second account, cross-account access rights to the share role or share object in the first account. The method includes receiving a request from the second account to access data or services of the first account and providing a response to the second account based on the data or services of the first account. The method is such that the underlying detail of the share object that comprises the secure view definition is hidden from the second account and visible to the first account.
