  • Patent number: 11979489
    Abstract: A database stores a document as a plurality of encrypted records, where each record is indicative of an incremental change to the state of the document, and encrypted using a document key. The document key is stored with encryption decryptable using a group key, and the group key is stored with encryption decryptable using a first access key. In response to a request to rotate from the first access key to a second access key, the database decrypts the group key using the first access key, a stores a group key re-encrypted with the second access key.

  • Patent number: 11940904
    Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products to facilitate generation of microservices from a monolithic application based on runtime traces are provided. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a model component that learns cluster assignments of classes in a monolithic application based on runtime traces of executed test cases. The computer executable components can further comprise a cluster component that employs the model component to generate clusters of the classes based on the cluster assignments to identify one or more microservices of the monolithic application.

  • Patent number: 11734293
    Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein are systems and methods that enable client-side calculation with data provided at a multidimensional or other database server. Data provided at the server in accordance with a server-side model, can be transformed/prepared into a grid, for use with a client-side application, for example a client spreadsheet application. During preparation of the grid, one or more portions of the grid that are identified as client-side dynamic parameters, can be represented as dynamic formulas that are modifiable within the client-side application; while parameters of the server-side model that are outside of the grid can be represented as constant values. The grid provided to the client can be used to perform client-side calculations that allow for rapid calculations in response to changes in the client-side model, without introducing a round-trip performance lag between the client-side and server-side.

  • Patent number: 8069146
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for updating a database using a multi-dimensional data model in which data corresponding to the database are organized in multi-dimensional data blocks. Each data block has summary information associated therewith corresponding to a current state of evolution of the associated data block. Dependency information is maintained in the data model which identifies data dependencies within and among the data blocks. A list of change entries identifies changes made to the data blocks and times at which the changes were made. A request to apply a change entry to a data block is received. The change entry is applied to the data block, including generating a dependency list of data blocks whose data depends directly or indirectly from the updated data block. The data blocks in the dependency list are processed in accordance with a dependency update algorithm to update the data blocks in the dependency list.

  • Publication number: 20050161630
    Abstract: A left-handed composite material which includes a mixture of a ferromagnetic material and a dielectric material. The direction of magnetization of the ferromagnetic material, and its volume fraction are controlled such that the composite material exhibits negative permeability in a frequency region near the ferromagnetic resonance frequency, and low eddy current losses. Furthermore, the handedness of the material may be locally tuned to be alternately converted into a right-handed material or a left-handed material by application of an external magnetic field, electric field, or mechanical stress. Such materials are easy to make and can be easily scaled up for industrial use.
