  • Patent number: 11995718
    Abstract: A routing system rapidly determines whether messages received by a data transaction processing system related to data objects in a computing system should be routed through or bypass integrity modules designed to detect and mitigate undesirable object conditions. The routing system may, in one embodiment, rely upon previous decisions made by the integrity modules. The routing system may also access data structures storing information about a current environment state to determine whether a message should be routed through the time consuming integrity modules. The routing system may additionally determine and specify which values associated with a message should be checked against integrity module logic.

  • Publication number: 20240129379
    Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for adaptive compression of stored information includes a memory management computing device programmed to monitor a size of a plurality of data structures stored in a data repository. The computing device compares the size of each of a plurality of data structures to a predetermined threshold. When a size of an uncompressed data structure meets the threshold, the memory management computing device calculates a value of a first compression parameter based on a value of a first parameter and a value of a second parameter of each data element of the uncompressed data structure, calculates a value of a second compression parameter based the value of the first parameter of each data element of the uncompressed data structure, generates a compressed data structure based on the value of the first compression parameter and the second compression parameter; and replaces, in the data repository, the uncompressed data structure with the compressed data structure.
