Abstract: Implementations provide a secure and flexible encoding technique that enables data set owners to share data without losing interoperability or breaking data constraints. A device may receive a request to encode an input that includes a plurality of data portions. A device may identify protected data types within the data portions, transform raw text corresponding to a protected data type based on a seed and a base set to encoded text, and include the encoded text in an output. The seed and/or base set can be selected by a requestor. The output configuration can be defined as different from the configuration of the input. The encoded text retains a format of the raw text so the encoded text does not violate existing data constraints. The device may also ensure a minimum level of fidelity in the encoded text.

Abstract: Example caching systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a method identifies multiple files used to process a query and distributes each of the multiple files to a particular execution node to execute the query. Each execution node determines whether the distributed file is stored in the execution node's cache. If the execution node determines that the file is stored in the cache, it processes the query using the cached file. If the file is not stored in the cache, the execution node retrieves the file from a remote storage device, stores the file in the execution node's cache, and processes the query using the file.

Abstract: A method and system are provided of processing a search query entered by a user of a device having a text input interface with overloaded keys. The search query is directed at identifying an item from a set of items. Each of the items has a name including one or more words. The system receives from the user an ambiguous search query directed at identifying a desired item. The search query comprises a prefix substring of at least one word in the name of the desired item. The system dynamically identifies a group of one or more items from the set of items having one or more words in the names thereof matching the search query as the user enters each character of the search query. The system also orders the one or more items of the group in accordance with given criteria.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments that perform data synchronization in a cloud computing environment are described. In one embodiment, a method includes maintaining a plurality of accounts within a cloud computing environment. In response to receiving a command to enable data synchronization for an account, a data synchronization condition is constructed to specify that a synchronization action will be triggered when data input by the account satisfies the data synchronization condition. Access to the account is monitored. In response to the access satisfying the data synchronization condition, the synchronization action is triggered to identify a second account with data corresponding to data input by the account. The synchronization action is executed to create a synchronization field in the second account and insert data of the account into the synchronization field.

Abstract: Data processing apparatuses, methods and computer programs are disclosed. A range definition register is arranged to store a range specifier and filtering operations are performed with respect to a specified transaction by reference to the range definition register. The range definition register stores the range specifier in a format comprising a significand and an exponent, wherein a range of data identifiers is at least partially defined by the range specifier. When the specified transaction is with respect to a data identifier within the range of data identifiers, the filtering operations performed are dependent on attribute data associated with the range of data identifiers.

Abstract: A data intake and query system establishes a network connection with an instrumented target system. The instrumented target system collects metrics in accordance with an instrumentation platform, whereby the instrumentation platform defines an instrumentation platform query.

The data intake and query system query replicates the instrumentation platform query of the instrumentation platform. From the data store, log data for the instrumented target system, and correlated with the metrics to obtain correlated results.

Abstract: A method for modifying key-value pairs of a B+ tree is provided. The method receives a request to modify a particular key-value pair. Each node of the tree has a modification number. The method traverses a path on the tree from the root node toward the particular node. The traversing includes upon reaching a parent node of the path, acquiring a shared lock on both the parent node and a child node one level below the parent node. Upon determining that the child node is the particular node, the method stores the modification number of the particular node, releases the shared lock on the particular node, compares a current modification number of the node with its stored number, and acquires an exclusive lock on the node if the numbers are the same. The method increments the current modification number of the node and modifies it while in the exclusive lock.

Abstract: A general purpose blockchain (GPB) providing the capability of native arbitrary computation and storage of any type of digital object with distributed verification technology (DVT) implementation that not only allows scalable arbitrary computational verification of digital objects, but also is agnostic as to the types of object. The GPB platform comprises an interface for interacting with arbitrary objects (“GPB arbitrary objects”). The interface transforms unstructured data into structured, extensible data without loss of fidelity of the underlying data. This is accomplished through a transformation function, which takes as input any arbitrary form of data and provides as output a structured data object upon which cryptographic and other operations necessary to the functions of DVTs can be performed collectively by a plurality of GPB blockchains. One proposed method of creating this structured output uses open-standard, extensible markup language (XML) data.
