  • Patent number: 11943203
    Abstract: A method includes selecting, by at least one hardware processor of a first database deployment, data for transmission to a second database deployment. The data includes a plurality of files forming a data stream. At least a first file of the plurality of files is encoded using a first encryption key which is stored in at least a second file of the plurality of files. The at least a first file is further encoded to include a second encryption key associated with at least a third file of the plurality of files. A set of nodes is identified in a virtual private network connected to the first and second database deployments. The data stream is transmitted from the first database deployment to the second database deployment via the set of nodes of the virtual private network that is connected to the first database deployment and the second database deployment.

  • Publication number: 20240072621
    Abstract: A method of making an electromagnetic coil for use in a high-temperature electromagnetic machine includes pre-coating magnet wire with a high-temperature insulation precursor to produce pre-coated magnet wire, winding, while applying in-situ a glass-ceramic slurry, the pre-coated magnet wire into a predetermined coil shape to produce a wet-wound green coil, and thermally processing the wet-wound green coil to produce a processed coil. In some instances, a second layer of a high-temperature insulation may be applied to the processed coil to produce a further insulated processed coil, and then thermally processing the further insulated processed coil to produce a further processed electromagnetic coil.

  • Publication number: 20230376543
    Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for analyzing clusters of coded documents is provided. Clusters of documents are displayed and at least a portion of the documents are each associated with a classification code. A representation of each document is provided based on the associated classification code or an absence of the associated classification code. A search query with search terms is received. Each search term is associated with one of the classification codes. Those documents that satisfy the search query are identified and the representations of the identified documents are changed based on the classification codes associated with the search terms. The change in representation provides an indication of agreement between the classification code of such document and the classification codes of the search terms, or an indication of disagreement between the classification code of the document and the classification codes of the search terms.

  • Publication number: 20230344796
    Abstract: Different database deployments, or other data system deployments, may want to communicate with each other without sacrificing security or control. To this end, embodiments of the present disclosure may provide secure message exchange techniques for a source and/or target deployment. Configurable rule sets may be stored in the deployments; the rule sets may define what messages may be communicated between deployments. The deployments may implement a selective filtering scheme in one or more stages based on the rule sets to filter outgoing and/or incoming messages.

  • Publication number: 20230244695
    Abstract: A system for sub-table replication within a materialized view of a source data table. A materialized view of a source data table is generated based on a query, the source data table having a plurality of data table rows associated with a plurality of client identifiers and including an entitlements column and data content, the entitlements column including a plurality of provider account identifiers and a plurality of consumer account identifiers. An update to an entitlements table of the source data table is detected where the entitlements table includes a plurality of entitlements table rows and where the entitlements table rows are associated with the client identifiers, the consumer account identifiers, and the provider account identifiers. An update to the source data table based on the first update to the entitlements table is detected, and an incremental replication of the materialized view of the source data table is performed.
