REDUCING DATA LOSS IN REMOTE DATABASES

Abstract:

Systems and methods for reducing data loss in remote databases. One method includes detecting, with an electronic processor communicatively coupled to the remote database, a failure of a user session with the remote database. The method includes, in response to determining the failure of the user session, performing, with the electronic processor, an offline detection check for the user session, the offline detection check including a canary check on a known resource related to the remote database. The method includes, in response to the offline detection check indicating that the remote database is offline, setting the user session to read-only, displaying, within a graphical user interface of the user session, an offline indicator, and graphically marking the at least one outstanding request within the user session.
