Patent number: 11983181Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing previews of deployment of data stream processing instructions sets, sometimes called pipelines, to a stream data processing system. Rather than deploying such an instruction set, which may cause detrimental side effects, previews can be facilitated by conversion of a data stream processing instructions set to a batch query that is applied to an existing data set. An output of the batch query can then be provided to an end user as a preview of output of the data stream processing instructions set, when implemented.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2022Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Ankur Dalsukhbhai Bambharoliya, Ricky Burnett, Daniel Ferstay, Arthur Foelsche, Alexander D. James, Ganesh Jothikumar, Bei Li, Amy Joanna Sutedja, Salih Ammar Wajih Zainulabdeen

Patent number: 11615084Abstract: Systems and methods are described for unified processing of indexed and streaming data. A system enables users to query indexed data or specify processing pipelines to be applied to streaming data. In some instances, a user may specify a query intended to be run against indexed data, but may specify criteria that includes not-yet-indexed data (e.g., a future time frame). The system may convert the query into a data processing pipeline applied to not-yet-indexed data, thus increasing the efficiency of the system. Similarly, in some instances, a user may specify a data processing pipeline to be applied to a data stream, but specify criteria including data items outside the data stream. For example, a user may wish to apply the pipeline retroactively, to data items that have already exited the data stream. The system can convert the pipeline into a query against indexed data to satisfy the users processing requirements.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2021Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: SPLUNK INC.Inventors: Joseph Gabriel Echeverria, Arthur Foelsche, Eric Sammer, Sarah Stanger

Patent number: 11614923Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for implementing dual textual/graphical programming interfaces for programming streaming data processing pipelines. A user interface is provided that enables a user to author a processing pipeline as a query in a query language, and to request conversion of that query language into a graph data structure representation of the pipeline, which can be visualized in the interface. The interface further enables modification of the graph via interaction with the visualization. On request, the modified graph can be converted back into the query language, with the querying being modified to reflect the modifications to the graph.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2020Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: SPLUNK INC.Inventors: Ricky Gene Burnett, Joseph Gabriel Echeverria, Max Feng, Arthur Foelsche, Anush Kumar Jayaraman, Eric Prokop, Jeremiah Reichardt, Ran Xie

Patent number: 11474673Abstract: Systems and methods are described for graphical user interfaces that enable users to graphically design nodes and interconnections of pipelines for preprocessing data later ingested into an indexing system. The preprocessing can include receiving messages published to a first publish-subscribe messaging system, the messages containing raw machine data generated by one or more components in an information technology environment, performing one or more processing operations on at least some of the messages to generate preprocessed messages, republishing the preprocessed messages to a second publish-subscribe messaging system, and providing to the indexing system, a subset of the messages from the second publish-subscribe messaging system. Nodes in the pipeline can specify the preprocessing operations, and interconnections in the pipeline can represent data flow through the nodes of the pipeline.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Bashar Abdul-Jawad, Matthew Dailey, Joseph Gabriel Echeverria, Arthur Foelsche, Eric Sammer, Sarah Stanger

On request, the modified graph can be converted back into the query language, with the querying being modified to reflect the modifications to the graph. In some embodiments, the graph data structure representation and/or the query language representation of the pipeline can be converted into a third representation, such as an Abstract Syntax Tree, that is deployed to an intake system to implement the pipeline.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2020Publication date: November 4, 2021Inventors: Ricky Gene Burnett, Joseph Gabriel Echeverria, Max Feng, Arthur Foelsche, Anush Kumar Jayaraman, Eric Prokop, Jeremiah Reichardt, Ran Xie
