Patent number: 8498973Abstract: Making data available from a database is disclosed. Making data available includes specifying a query function having a query function name, wherein the query function includes a structure and a member, determining the structure and the member included in the query function, wherein the query function has a query function name and includes the structure and the member, creating an index for the structure on the member, and compiling the query function to be available to a user by invoking the query function name without the user having to specify the structure and the member. Retrieving data from a database is disclosed. Retrieving includes invoking a query function that specifies a plurality of structures and a value, accessing a cross index of the plurality of structures, and using the cross index to access the data.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2011Date of Patent: July 30, 2013Assignee: Infoblox Inc.Inventors: Srinath Gutti, Stuart M.

Publication number: 20120296948Abstract: Techniques for writing data in a distributed database system having a plurality of members and a master are disclosed. In one embodiment, a write request is received at an originating member. The write request is applied to a version of a database on the originating member and is placed in a journal queue of items for propagating to the master in one single atomic action. The write request is propagated to the master. Whether the propagated write request is associated with a conflict is determined, and in an event it is determined that the propagated write request is associated with the conflict, an indication that the write request is associated with the conflict is sent to the originating member.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2012Publication date: November 22, 2012Applicant: INFOBLOX INC.Inventors: Stuart M. Bailey, Ivan W. Pulleyn, Srinath Gutti
