Abstract: A system and method for encrypting portions of data for storage in a remote network have been provided. The system comprises a memory with instructions executable by a processor to receive data for forwarding to a server device, wherein the received data comprises an indication of one or more portions of the received data to be encrypted; identify a portion comprising the one or more portions of the received data based at least in part on the indication; encrypt the identified portion of the data; generate a payload that comprises the encrypted portion and one or more unencrypted portions of the received data; and transmit, to the server device, the payload.

Abstract: A server system may include one or more hardware processors that execute computer-readable instructions from a non-transitory memory that cause the processor to receive a time component associated with a query request and one or more relational identification tags associated with a subset of a plurality of data items stored in one or more databases. The processor may then query the one or more databases to identify one or more time series data items based on the time component and the relational identification tags. After querying the databases, the processor may transmit the one or more time series data items to a computing device configured to display the one or more time series data items.

Abstract: A node of an application instance in a distributed computing environment can be selectively hibernated and the execution of the node selectively restarted by first detecting a condition of the node that satisfies a criterion for hibernating the node. The node may then be hibernated by suspending execution of the node on a server and initiating execution of a listener. The listener can use a network port that the node used before the execution of the node was suspended. At a later time, a request from a client to the application instance can be received by the listener. The request can be a request to restart execution of the node. Responsive to the request and a determination that the server has a predefined amount of resources for permitting execution of the node, the execution of the node on the server can be restarted.

Abstract: An example embodiment performed by a proxy server application of a remote network management platform may involve receiving a message from a third-party application directed to an address of the proxy server application and containing an identifier related to a particular entity. The embodiment may also involve using a template associated with a protocol type of the message to parse the message and determine the identifier. The embodiment may also involve comparing the identifier to mapping data that defines pairwise associations between each of a plurality of identifiers and computational instances of a plurality of computational instances. Each such computational instance may be communicatively coupled and dedicated to a respective managed network controlled by a particular entity.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for encrypting portions of data for storage and processing in a remote network. For example, methods may include receiving a message that includes data for forwarding to a server device; encrypting a portion of the data to determine an encrypted portion; determining metadata based on the portion of the data, wherein the metadata indicates one or more properties of the portion of the data and enables one or more operations to be performed by the server device that depend on the one or more properties; determining a payload including the data with both the encrypted portion and the metadata substituted for the portion of the data; and transmitting the payload to the server device.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for cloud memory sizing are disclosed. An initial database memory allocation is determined for the provisioning of a database server instance. Periodically, sizes of key database tables of the database server instance are measured and an upper and a lower bound ratio are determined based on the key database table sizes and a buffer pool size. The upper and lower bound ratios are used to determine a desired memory allocation from which a report is generated including an interface for generating an instance move action for re-provisioning the database server instance with the desired memory allocation.

Abstract: The unauthorized access of database nodes by application nodes within an electronic computing and communications system can be prevented using an access table that stores access table records indicating that at least some of the application nodes are authorized to access at least some of the database nodes. The access table records can be generated by identifying connections between application nodes and database nodes within a configuration management database. Responsive to receiving a request to access a database node sent from a first application node, the access table can be queried to determine whether an access table record indicating that the first application node is authorized to access the database node is stored in the access table. If that access table record is not stored in the access table, the request is denied. Otherwise, the request is allowed.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing queries of a graph database. During operation, the system stores intermediate results of a query in a structure comprising rows in a set of tables. Next, the system applies one or more operations to existing rows in the structure to generate additional rows in additional tables of the structure. The system also tracks inputs and outputs associated with the one or more operations in a set of relationships between rows of different tables in the structure. Finally, the system uses the rows and the set of relationships to generate a final result of the query and provides the final result in a response to the query.

Abstract: A distributed backup method includes defining a server group having a plurality of server computers, and providing each server computer with an identical backup policy and an identical storage policy. The method also includes transmitting, at each server computer of the server group to every other server computer of the server group, advertisement messages describing available storage space for storing backups, and receiving, at each server computer from the server, at least some of the advertisement messages. The method also includes identifying, at a first server computer using the backup policy, at least a first service to be backed up, selecting a second server computer using the received advertisement messages, transmitting, from the first server computer to the second server computer, a backup including information corresponding to the at least one service, and storing the backup, by the second server computer using the storage policy.
