Abstract: Responsive to a data lookup in a buffer triggered for a search string, a processor searches for a selection of pairs from among multiple pairs of a hash table read from at least one address hash of the search string and matching at least one data hash of the search string, each row of the hash table assigned to a separate address hash, each of the pairs comprising a pointer to a location in the buffer and a tag with a previous data hash of a previously buffered string in the buffer. The processor identifies, from among the selection of pairs, at least one separate location in the buffer most frequently pointed to by two or more pointers within the selection of pairs. The processor, responsive to at least one read string from the buffer at the at least one separate location matching at least a substring of the search string, outputs the at least one separate location as the response to the data lookup.

Abstract: A storage device, connected to a computer including a processor and first memory, and executing a program, stores data processed under the program. The computer includes a protocol processing unit that accesses data in the storage device, an accelerator that includes an arithmetic unit executing a part of a process of the program, and a second memory storing data, and executes the part of the process. The first memory receives a processing request for processing data, and causes the accelerator to execute a command to process data, corresponding to the processing request for the processing request including a process to be executed by the arithmetic unit. The accelerator requests the protocol processing unit to provide target data indicated by a command received from the program, reads data from the storage device via the protocol processing unit, and stores the data in the second memory. The arithmetic unit executes the command.

Abstract: A reference data tool helps meet the technical challenges associated with providing important data to an application that needs the data. The tool causes execution of custom reports on an external data platform that extract the data needed by the application from the external data platform. The tool creates a custom data store for the data in a location accessible to the application. After the tool receives the extracted data, the tool automatically writes the data into the proper location in the custom data store.

Abstract: A source product and a competitor product are automatically matched by computing similarity scores between the products. An attribute of a source product is extracted from information received from a user. The extracted attribute is then used to generate a search term. A search for competitor product information is performed using the search term and a similarity score between the source product and the competitor product is calculated. In one implementation, the similarity score is calculated by generating a first value pair for the source product and the competitor product, and for the first value pair, (1) assigning a value to a degree of similarity between the source product and the competitor product with respect to a common feature, and (2) finding the product of the assigned value and a weight value assigned to the common feature.

Abstract: Various embodiments for repository management in a data deduplication system, by a processor device, are provided. Metadata of an inode structure of an entire pre-allocated file system is captured, exported, and compressed from an existing deduplication appliance, the pre-allocated file system comprising a fully padded file system. The exported and compressed metadata of the pre-allocated file system is decompressed and imported into a data deduplication repository of a new deduplication appliance having an identical file system size as within the existing deduplication appliance, to initially configure or subsequently scale the inode structure of a file system of the data deduplication repository of the new deduplication appliance efficiently.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for diverting, to cloned metadata, live access to original metadata of an application container that is being concurrently upgraded. In an embodiment, a database server stores, within an application container of an application, original metadata that defines objects for use by pluggable databases of the application. The database server receives a maintenance request to adjust the original metadata. The database server creates, in response to receiving the maintenance request, a reference container that contains cloned metadata that is a copy of the original metadata. The database server receives, during or after creating the reference container, a read request to read one of the objects. The database server concurrently performs both of: executing the maintenance request upon the original metadata, and executing the read request upon the cloned metadata of the reference container.

Abstract: Techniques to backup collaboration server data are disclosed. A plurality of separate threads are used to back up a prescribed number of subsets of a dataset. Each subset of the prescribed number of subsets was determined by walking an associated directory in the prescribed order at a prior time with which a prior backup is associated. A separate thread is spawned to backup transaction logs associated with the dataset. A first pass backup of the transaction logs is performed in parallel with the backup of the prescribed number of subsets.

Abstract: In the Business Intelligence (BI) realm, ad hoc reporting refers to relatively fast on-the-fly building of computer data reports in real-time. A process for pre-report execution based on an anticipated ad hoc reporting request is provided. This process predicts an ad hoc reporting request to generate an ad hoc report will be received from a user. Based on the ad hoc reporting request being predicted, and prior to receiving the ad hoc reporting request, the process dynamically generates and executes code to execute a query(ies) and acquires pre-request execution report data from execution of the query(ies). The ad hoc reporting request is received from the user, and based on receiving the ad hoc reporting request, the process identifies pre-request execution report data acquired prior to receiving the ad hoc reporting requests and generates the ad hoc report using the pre-request execution report data.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes accessing a log associated with a user. The log includes a number of entries that each indicate a geo-location of the user at a particular time of day of a particular day of a week.

The method also includes determining one or more geo-location centroids based on a distance between the respective geo-location centroid and each geo-location data point. Each geo-location centroid is representative of one or more of the geo-location data points obtained during the particular time of day of the particular day of a week. The method also includes determining a routine center of one or more of the number of geo-location centroids based on a distance between its respective routine center and each geo-location centroid.
