Abstract: A data flow graph-driven analytics platform is described in which highly-programmable data stream processing devices, referred to generally herein as data processing units (DPUs), operate to provide a scalable, fast and efficient analytics processing architecture. In general, the DPUs are specialized data-centric processors architected for efficiently applying data manipulation operations (e.g., regular expression operations to match patterns, filtering operations, data retrieval, compression/decompression and encryption/decryption) to streams of data units, such as packet flows having network packets, a set of storage packets being retrieved from or written to storage or other data units.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for improving speech recognition accuracy in media content searches are described. An advertisement for a media content item is analyzed to identify keywords that may describe the media content item. The identified keywords are associated with the media content item for use during a voice search to locate the media content item. A user may speak the one or more of the keywords as a search input and be provided with the media content item as a result of the search.

Abstract: Techniques for triggering pipeline execution based on data change (transaction commit) are described. The pipelines can be used for data ingestion or other specified tasks. These tasks can be operational across account, organization, cloud region, and cloud provider boundaries. The tasks can be triggered by commit post-processing. Gates in the tasks can be set up to reference change data capture information. If the gate is satisfied, tasks can be executed to set up data pipelines.

Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for receiving an entry, the entry comprising first content and a metadata tag corresponding to a classification, the first content populated by a first source. A rules engine determines that the first content comprises a data field associated with at least one of a plurality of reconciliation policies. Responsive to determining that the first content comprises a data field associated with at least one of the plurality of reconciliation policies, the rules engine selects a reconciliation policy based on the metadata tag. The rules engine retrieves, from a second source, second content associated with the data field, inputs the first content and the second content into a model, the model selected based on the reconciliation policy, the model generating an output, and performs a remediation action based on the output.

Abstract: A distributed database management system comprises database nodes located in a plurality of availability zones. The system receives a request to store a table, and determines to store a number of replicas of the table in one or more availability zones. The system obtains information indicating that one of the availability zones has been designated as preferred. The system identifies a set of database nodes in the preferred availability zone, where the number of database nodes in the subset is sufficient to determine quorum among the replicas. The replicas are stored on the identified set of database nodes.

Abstract: A variety of scenarios for generating mock data based on original data are described. Characteristics of the original data can be reflected in the mock data without having access to the actual original data. Instead, statistical artifacts representing the original data can be used to instantiate reconstructed database tables. In relational database scenarios, foreign key relationships can be preserved even if the actual values are not known. The reconstructed database tables can be used as mock data in a variety of circumstances, including testing, and is especially useful to recreate characteristics of the original data when the original data cannot be made available for size, confidentiality, or privacy reasons.

Abstract: An embodiment generates, responsive to receiving a declarative replication specification, a logical map comprising a plurality of paths to completing a data replication process identified by the replication specification. The embodiment determines, responsive to generating the logical map, an optimal path to completing the data replication process by searching the plurality of paths of the logical map using a cost-directed search algorithm to find the optimal path from among the plurality of paths. The embodiment also performs, responsive to finding the optimal path, a series of data replication operations for replicating source data on a target database. The embodiment also detects, during a runtime of the data replication process, a predetermined change to a runtime environment of the data replication process. The embodiment also determines, responsive to detecting the predetermined change, a revised optimal path for performing the data replication process in the changed runtime environment.

The partially and/or fully server oriented algorithms use homomorphic and/or order preserving encryption for enabling search capability from a user other than an owner of the contents of the data collection. The confidentiality preserving method includes using term frequency for rank-ordering selective contents of the data collection, and retrieving the selective contents based on the rank-order.

Abstract: Techniques herein minimally communicate between computers to repartition a graph. In embodiments, each computer receives a partition of edges and vertices of the graph. For each of its edges or vertices, each computer stores an intermediate representation into an edge table (ET) or vertex table. Different edges of a vertex may be loaded by different computers, which may cause a conflict. Each computer announces that a vertex resides on the computer to a respective tracking computer. Each tracking computer makes assignments of vertices to computers and publicizes those assignments. Each computer that loaded conflicted vertices transfers those vertices to computers of the respective assignments. Each computer stores a materialized representation of a partition based on: the ET and vertex table of the computer, and the vertices and edges that were transferred to the computer. Edges stored in the materialized representation are stored differently than edges stored in the ET.

Abstract: Computer systems and methods incorporate user annotations (metadata) regarding various pages or sites, including annotations by a querying user and by members of a trust network defined for the querying user into search and browsing of a corpus such as the World Wide Web. A trust network is defined for each user, and annotations by any member of a first user's trust network are made visible to the first user during search and/or browsing of the corpus. Users can also limit searches to content annotated by members of their trust networks or by members of a community selected by the user.

In an example implementation, a method for automatic removal of private information may include: receiving a transcript of communication data; applying a private information rule to the transcript in order to identify private information in the transcript; tagging the identified private information with a tag comprising an identification of the private information; applying a complicate rule to the tagged transcript in order to evaluate a compliance of the transcript with privacy standards; removing the identified private information from the transcript to produce a redacted transaction; and storing the redacted transcript.

Abstract: Described herein are technologies relating to including instrumentation code in enterprise pages and generating a report for an enterprise page based upon instrumentation data and organizational data. Instrumentation code in an enterprise page, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to generate instrumentation data, where the instrumentation data includes an identifier for the enterprise page and an identifier for a user who accessed the enterprise page. The instrumentation data is added to an instrumentation dataset. A report is generated for an enterprise page based upon the instrumentation data and organizational data, such that the report indicates how users across different sectors of the enterprise interact with the enterprise page.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method process insertions into a target table of a target database system. A single query language INSERT statement is received that is related to a source partition of a source table in a source database system that identifies a block of data (BOD), having a partition identifier (PID), to be inserted into the target table. The INSERT statement contains no literal PID. Responsive to receiving the INSERT statement, a processor receives the BOD from the source table via a data stream, and inserts the BOD into the target table. This reduces the overhead associated with using an INSERT statement to insert multiple rows of data into a target table.
