  • Publication number: 20240078135
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may provide dynamic and fair assignment techniques for allocating resources on a demand basis. Assignment control may be separated into at least two components: a local component and a global component. Each component may have an active dialog with each other; the dialog may include two aspects: 1) a demand for computing resources, and 2) a total allowed number of computing resources. The global component may allocate resources from a pool of resources to different local components, and the local components in turn may assign their allocated resources to local competing requests. The allocation may also be throttled or limited at various levels.

  • Patent number: 11914591
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for sharing materialized views in multiple tenant database systems. A method includes defining a materialized view over a source table that is associated with a first account of a multiple tenant database. The method includes defining cross-account access rights to the materialized view to a second account such that that second account can read the materialized view without copying the materialized view. The method includes modifying the source table for the materialized view. The method includes identifying whether the materialized view is stale with respect to the source table by merging the materialized view and the source table.

  • Publication number: 20240028592
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a dynamic query execution model. This query execution model may provide acceleration by scaling out parallel parts of a query (also referred to as a fragment) to additional computing resources, for example computing resources leased from a pool of computing resources. Execution of the parts of the query may be coordinated by a parent query coordinator, where the query originated, and a fragment query coordinator.

  • Publication number: 20230028008
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a dynamic query execution model with fault tolerance and failure recovery techniques. Embodiments of the present disclosure may utilize checkpoints to map processed output files to their corresponding input files. Therefore, if an error occurs in processing one or more files, the system may only need to reschedule processing of selected file(s).

  • Patent number: 11113279
    Abstract: The subject technology defines a materialized view over a source table that is associated with a first account of a database. The subject technology defines cross-account access rights to the materialized view for a second account. The subject technology modifies the source table for the materialized view. The subject technology identifies that the materialized view is stale with respect to the source table by merging the materialized view and the source table. The subject technology causes the materialized view to be refreshed with respect to the source table.

  • Patent number: 11113278
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for generating and updating cross-account materialized views in multiple tenant database systems. A method includes defining a share object in a first account wherein the share object includes data associated with the first account. The method includes granting cross-account access rights to the share object to a second account such that the second account has access to the share object without copying the share object. The method includes generating a materialized view over the share object. The method includes updating the data associated with the first account. The method includes identifying whether the materialized view is stale with respect to the share object by merging the materialized view and the share object.
