  • Patent number: 11709839
    Abstract: A database system includes a plurality of DBMSs included in a plurality of nodes. Each DBMS is a first or a second DBMS. The first DBMS transfers a search query and does not execute data retrieval, and the second DBMS executes data retrieval. The plurality of nodes configure one or more node groups. Each node group includes a first node and one or more second nodes. In each node group, the first node is a logical computer that provides a first storage area and executes a first DBMS and the second node is a logical computer that provides a second storage area and executes a second DBMS, each node in the node group stores the same database therein, and data retrieval from the database in the node group is executed by one or more second DBMSs in the node group.

  • Patent number: 11650988
    Abstract: The database management system (DBMS) receives a first instruction specifying anonymization rule information corresponding to a column of the relation table, among anonymization rule information that is present for each column included in the relation table and shows a plurality of generalization rules. The DBMS reads the column from the relation table in response to the first instruction, and generates a temporary result obtained by generalizing each attribute value of the column based on any of a plurality of generalization rules. The DBMS generates an aggregate result obtained by aggregating the temporary result. The DBMS generates an anonymization method including generalization information indicating a correspondence relationship of each attribute value of the column and any of the plurality of generalization rules when the aggregate result satisfies a disclosure rule. The DBMS generates anonymization information as a result of processing the relation table based on the first anonymization method.

  • Patent number: 11636107
    Abstract: A database management system (DBMS) generates a query execution plan including information representing one or more database (DB) operations necessary for executing a query and executes the query based on the query execution plan. In the execution of the query, the DBMS dynamically generates a task for executing a DB operation and executes the dynamically generated task. The DBMS executes a task in a plurality of threads executed by a processor core.

  • Patent number: 11494383
    Abstract: When a DBMS receives a suspend instruction in which a suspend completion time of query processing is a future time and between receipt of the suspend instruction and the suspend completion time, if there is a target object (at least a processing object whose execution is in progress upon receipt of the suspend instruction) whose predicted completion time is at or precedes the suspend completion time, the DBMS changes the state of the target object to a state signifying a snapshot suspend. If there is a processing object whose state signifies a snapshot suspend, the DBMS executes the processing object at or before the suspend completion time.

  • Patent number: 11176092
    Abstract: There is provided a database management system (DBMS) in order to make anonymization processing of the database efficient. When receiving a query including a conversion rule, the database management system is configured to process a relationship table in the database based on the conversion rule. At that time, the DBMS is configured to acquire data from a processing result table (result of processing the relationship table) stored in the past for tuples the number of which for each value appearing in a predetermined attribute satisfies a condition required for the anonymization processing. On the other hand, for tuples the number of which for each value appearing in a predetermined attribute does not satisfy the condition required for the anonymization processing, the DBMS is configured to acquire data from the database or from a result of processing the relationship table, the result being stored in rather than the processing result table.

  • Patent number: 11074271
    Abstract: A database management system (DBMS) performs, in response to a conversion request to convert a store format of a table in a database, a process (base type change process) for changing a store format indicated by information (base type) indicating the store format of the table to a store format according to the conversion request, and performs a data conversion process asynchronously with the aforementioned process. In an import process after the base type change process, the DBMS imports, into the table, a chunk in the store format indicated by the base type after change. In the data conversion process, the DBMS converts a chunk in a store format different from the store format indicated by the base type into a chunk in the store format indicated by the base type.

  • Patent number: 11061907
    Abstract: If a query indicates joining of N (N is an integer of no less than 3) relation tables, a database management system calculates a query cost that is based on a power consumption amount for query execution, for each of a first query plan candidate in which a temporary table is generated and the temporary table is stored in a storage device unit with a first access cost, a second query plan candidate in which a temporary table is generated and the temporary table is stored in a storage device unit with a second access cost that is higher than the first access cost and a third query plan candidate in which the N relation tables are joined in a pipelined manner without generation of a temporary table, selects a relatively low-query cost query plan candidate and executes the query based on the query plan candidate.

  • Patent number: 10853365
    Abstract: As an I/O method of issuing an I/O request, there are a synchronous I/O method, in which a task is in a waiting state until an I/O response to the I/O request is returned and an asynchronous I/O method, in which another task can be executed before an I/O response to the I/O request is returned. When issuing an I/O request in execution of a task, a DBMS selects any one of the synchronous I/O method and the asynchronous I/O method, based on an I/O response speed of an I/O destination storage device and issues an I/O request according to the selected I/O method.

  • Patent number: 10747773
    Abstract: A database management system (DBMS) manages a database existing in a second storage device with an access speed lower than that of a first storage device. In an execution of a query, the DBMS dynamically generates tasks two or more executable tasks in parallel. The DBMS generates task start information which is information representing a content of the execution of the task, manages the task start information, and executes a content represented by the task start information by the task. The task start information includes a data address set existing in the second storage device. The DBMS controls movement of the data address sets between the first storage device and the second storage device based on a management state of the task start information. In addition, the DBMS selects the task start information based on whether or not the data address set exists in the first storage device.

  • Patent number: 10747446
    Abstract: Since storage devices are activated in the issuance order of I/O commands, the time required for processing of a plurality of I/O commands based on one or more I/O requests may become long. When issuance destinations of two or more I/O commands are two or more storage devices in a non-activated state from among a plurality of storage devices, a computer system determines an activation order of the two or more storage devices on the basis of two or more I/O quantities which respectively correspond to the two or more storage devices. Each of the I/O quantities of the two or more storage devices is an I/O quantity in accordance with one or more I/O commands for the relevant storage device from among the two or more I/O commands. The computer system activates the two or more storage devices in the determined activation order.
