  • Tenant specific and global pretagging for natural language queries
    Patent number: 11841852
    Abstract: A database system may receive a natural language query that is associated with a tenant of a multi-tenant system. The natural language query may be parsed into a set of tokens, and the set of tokens may be tagged, using a tenant specific tagging model associated with the tenant, the set of tokens with at least one pre-configured data type identifier that is configured for the plurality of tenants. A global tagging model that supports the plurality of tenants of the multi-tenant system may tag the set of tokens with at least one category identifier. The global tagging model may use the natural language query and the pre-configured data type identifier to identify the at least one category identifier. The system may execute a database query on a database associated with the tenant using the at least one pre-configured data type identifier and the at least one category identifier.
