Publication number: 20160147560Abstract: In an example embodiment, a request for an enqueue lock for a first piece of data is received from a client application. At an enqueue server separate from an application server instance, a light-weight enqueue session is then created, including generating a light-weight enqueue session identification for the light-weight enqueue session. An enqueue lock for the first piece of data is stored in the light-weight enqueue session. The light-weight enqueue session identification is then sent to the client application. In response to a detection that a session between the client application and the application server instance has been terminated, all enqueue locks in the light-weight enqueue session are deleted and the light-weight enqueue session is deleted.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 25, 2014Publication date: May 26, 2016Inventors: Masoud Aghadavoodi Jolfaei, Edgar Lott, Achim Braemer

Patent number: 9043815Abstract: Methods and systems of monitoring events occurring in a computer system are provided. An event monitoring instruction including a condition is parsed, the event monitoring instruction expressed using syntax defined in source code, the parsing resulting in an event channel to monitor and the condition. Then execution of an application is paused. The event channel is monitored until an event occurs on the event channel. Then an event handler for the event is run in response to the event occurring on the event channel. The condition is evaluated to determine whether the condition is satisfied. Execution of the application is resumed in response to the condition being satisfied.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2014Date of Patent: May 26, 2015Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Masoud Aghadavoodi Jolfaei, Stefan Bresch, Helmut Prestel, Thorsten Marcus Dunz, Edgar Lott, Frank Radmacher, Karsten Bohlmann

Publication number: 20150120809Abstract: A kernel provides a mechanism allowing various applications (e.g. CRM, logistics, procurement, etc.) hosted on a plurality of different application servers, to share access to a common underlying system (e.g. database). An automated process for implementing a kernel change (e.g. for upgrade or replacement) may employ a “Stop-the-World” approach involving suspension of application server instances, coordinated by the start service of the last application server whose kernel is to be changed. As used herein, suspending refers to halting any processing prior to calling a central service (CS) as long as a CS instance is unavailable, and then to resuming processing once the CS instance becomes available. This suspension of relevant clients avoids errors from arising during the downtime of the CS instance. Once the application server instances are in a stopped state, the CS instance is restarted. Then, the application server instances are resumed, and their kernels are changed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2013Publication date: April 30, 2015Applicant: SAP AGInventors: ACHIM BRAEMER, BERNHARD BRAUN, CHRISTIAN GOLDBACH, GUENTER HAMMER, EDGAR LOTT, JOCHEN MUELLER, ANDREA NEUFELD, WERNER REHM, MATTHIAS RINCK, MICHAEL TRAPP, RANDOLF WERNER, SVEN WOLFANGER

Patent number: 7707583Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer systems and program products, for sharing objects in runtime systems and for providing isolation between user sessions in a scalable manner. A user context corresponding to a user session is stored in a shared memory area. Upon receiving a request corresponding to the user session, a process is selected from a set of operating system processes, and a runtime system is selected from a set of runtime systems. The runtime system is bound to the process, and the user context is associated with the runtime system to process the request. In some implementations, sharing user contexts enables virtual machines to be used in a shared but isolated manner: Each user context can be exclusively associated with an available virtual machine from a fixed set of virtual machines, and each virtual machine can be exclusively executed in an available process from a fixed set of processes.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2004Date of Patent: April 27, 2010Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Oliver Schmidt, Norbert Kuck, Edgar Lott, Martin Strassburger, Arno Hilgenberg, Ralf Schmelter

Patent number: 7587721Abstract: Method, apparatus and system for data sharing in runtime systems are described. A set of data objects is identified, where each data object in the set of data objects comprises a reference to runtime metadata about the data object in a first runtime system. For each data object in the set of data objects, the reference to the runtime metadata in the data object is replaced with a proxy. The set of data objects is transmitted to a second runtime system. The transmitting of the set of data objects includes replacing the proxy with the reference to the runtime metadata for each of the set of data objects transmitted to the second runtime system. Further, a shared memory is associated with the first runtime system and the second runtime system such that the first and second runtime systems share us information at the shared memory.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2004Date of Patent: September 8, 2009Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Oliver Schmidt, Norbert Kuck, Edgar Lott, Martin Strassburger, Arno Hilgenberg, Ralf Schmelter, Jan Dosert

Patent number: 7415704Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer systems and program products, for sharing data objects in runtime systems. An identification of a first data object in a first runtime system is received. The first data object references zero or more referenced data objects. A shared closure of data objects, which consists of the first data object and a transitive closure of the referenced data objects, is identified, and a determination is made as to whether the shared closure of data objects is usable in a second runtime system. In some implementations, determining whether a shared closure is usable in a second runtime system includes determining whether each data object in the shared closure is serializable without execution of custom code, or determining whether the runtime class of each object instance in the shared closure is shareable. Using shared closures to share objects between runtime systems can provide isolation between user sessions.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2004Date of Patent: August 19, 2008Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Oliver Schmidt, Norbert Kuck, Edgar Lott, Martin Strassburger, Arno Hilgenberg, Ralf Schmelter

The reference to the runtime metadata in each object is replaced with a proxy, and the set of objects is transmitted to a second runtime system, where the proxy in each object is replaced with a reference to runtime metadata about the object in the second runtime system. In some implementations, the runtime metadata can be installed in the second runtime system if it is not already available. The set of objects can include a shared closure of objects, which can be shared between runtime systems (including virtual machines) located on distinct physical machines. Sharing objects between runtime systems on multiple machines can provide isolation between user sessions in a scalable manner.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2004Publication date: November 24, 2005Inventors: Oliver Schmidt, Norbert Kuck, Edgar Lott, Martin Strassburger, Arno Hilgenberg, Ralf Schmelter, Jan Dosert
