  • Patent number: 11704341
    Abstract: Systems and methods for search result replication in a search head cluster of a data aggregation and analysis system. An example method may comprise maintaining a replication count in a data store associated with at least one of the plurality of search heads, the replication count corresponding to how many of the replicas of the search result are stored in the search head cluster, determining that the replication count is greater than a target replication count, based on determining that the replication count is greater than the target replication count, initiating a deletion of at least one replica of the replicas of the search result from a target search head of the plurality of search heads storing the replicas, receiving an indication that the deletion is complete, and based on receiving the indication that the deletion is complete, decreasing the replication count corresponding to the search result.

  • Patent number: 11681686
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided to fully process an initially incomplete replicated and committed transaction. A transaction pattern table is provided that includes a plurality of records, each record being defined by a transaction pattern identifier. Each record includes a transaction pattern and a metric of occurrence of the transaction pattern. An incomplete transaction is automatically compared to the transaction patterns in the table and a subset of transaction patterns in the table are identified that are potential candidates for matching the incomplete transaction. The incomplete transaction is categorized using the metric of occurrence of the transaction pattern for each transaction pattern in the subset. The categorization predicts when all steps or operations of the transaction which have completed in the source database have been replicated, and the incomplete transaction is committed based on this prediction.

  • Patent number: 11676231
    Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for performing automatic document analysis. For instance, one or more computing devices may obtain a plurality of documents for analysis. The one or more computing devices may then analyze the documents to determine a respective comparative breadth score representing a breadth of each document, a respective comparative portion count score representing a number of documents portions included in each document, and a respective comparative differentiation score representing differentiation between the documents portions included in each document. In some instances, the one or more computing devices determine each of the scores based on comparing the respective breadth, respective number of document portions, and respective differentiation for each of the documents under analysis. The one or more computing devices can then determine a comprehensive score for each document using the respective scores, and generate a user interface that includes the overall scores.

  • Patent number: 11635908
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a digital asset synchronization system that provides improved digital asset management and synchronization of a digital asset stored either within a component database or a packaged file. For example, the digital asset synchronization system enables a set of components that makes up a digital asset to appear as a singular packaged file, while also maintaining the benefits of having the digital asset made up of the components. In this manner, the digital asset synchronization system provides a bridge between a digital asset stored in a packaged file format and conventional file formats. In addition, the digital asset synchronization system also provides digital asset management and improved synchronization between a client device and a cloud storage system.

  • Patent number: 11500854
    Abstract: In a production environment, an entry is logged in a log journal to represent a read operation on a record of a file. A problematic transaction in a batch job is selected and set of operations performed by the problematic transaction is intercepted. The set includes a combination of read, write, update, delete operations, and operations that use external resources. A window of entries is determined in the log journal where the entry is a beginning entry in the window and an ending entry is a last entry captured in the log journal before detecting the error. From the window, those entries are filtered that correspond to the record. A final value of the record is copied from the production environment to a development environment and rolled back in the development environment to an initial value stored in the beginning entry. The problematic transaction is performed in the development environment.

  • Patent number: 11475006
    Abstract: Techniques are presented herein for efficient query processing and data change propagation at a secondary database system. The techniques involve determining execution costs for executing a query at a primary DBMS and for executing the query at an offload DBMS. The cost for executing the query at the offload DBMS includes the cost of propagating changes to database objects required by the query to the offload DBMS. Based on the execution cost, the query is sent to either the primary DBMS or the offload DBMS.

  • Patent number: 11475004
    Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods optimizing database queries. A database management system may receive a first query comprising a plurality of query expressions. The database management system may determine that a first expression of the first query is nullable and that the first expression is null preserving. The database management system may generate optimized query code for the first query. The optimized query code may comprise a first code segment and a conditional jump instruction. The first code segment that, when executed by a processor, may cause the processor to perform operations comprising determining a value of the first expression. The conditional jump instruction may, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising: skipping execution of at least a portion of the first code segment and returning null for the first expression.

  • Patent number: 11422907
    Abstract: While connected to cloud storage, a computing device writes data and metadata to the cloud storage, indicates success of the write to an application of the computing device, and, after indicating success to the application, writes the data and metadata to local storage of the computing device. The data and metadata may be written to different areas of the local storage. The computing device may also determine that it has recovered from a crash or has connected to the cloud storage after operating disconnected and reconcile the local storage with the cloud storage. The reconciliation may be based at least on a comparison of the metadata stored in the area of the local storage with metadata received from the cloud storage. The cloud storage may store each item of data contiguously with its metadata as an expanded block.
