  • Patent number: 11687503
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for creating an enterprise data model that defines entities and relationships between the entities spanning multiple environments and for deploying and maintaining artifacts across the environments using metadata specified in the enterprise data model. By embedding metadata that describes foreign key references within an enterprise data model, a unifying enterprise data model may manage artifacts across multiple domains while implementing a physical, cross-domain, data architecture. Such an enterprise data model may provide an organization with a 360-degree view of the information harnessed across the organization's technical landscape and may allow the organization to easily rollout a comprehensive data warehousing solution.

  • Patent number: 11677620
    Abstract: Computing systems, for example, multi-tenant systems create data centers in a cloud platform using a cloud platform infrastructure language that is cloud platform independent. The system receives a cloud platform independent declarative specification describing a new datacenter to be created and a customization specification for customizing the data center. The system compiles the declarative specification along with the customization specification to generate a metadata representation of the data center. The metadata representation is used to generate a data center on a target cloud platform. Different customization specifications can be provided to generate different customized datacenters based on the same declarative specification. For example, the different customized data centers may implement different policies, for example, network policies, security policies, and so on.

  • Patent number: 11669261
    Abstract: Certain embodiments described herein relate to an improved selective data backup system. In some embodiments, one or more components in an information management system can determine that a portion of the primary data scheduled for backup was previously backed up or is scheduled to be backed up as part of another backup operation. For example, a data agent performing a cluster-level backup operation for an entire cluster of storage servers may check whether any part of the primary data was previously backed up by a prior server-level backup operation for one of the storage servers in the cluster. If so, the data agent may skip, in the cluster-level backup operation, any portion of the primary data stored in the storage server previously backed up as part of the prior server-level backup operation.
