Patent number: 11989164Abstract: A data dictionary generation system automatically populates and updates a data dictionary for listings offering shared data. A data dictionary includes metadata describing the shared data, including the individual objects, such as the individual tables, schemas, views, and functions. The shared data and each individual data object may be described in the data dictionary by a set of data fields that corresponds to the shared dataset or the object type of the individual object. The data dictionary can be presented to data consumers along with the description of the listing to provide data consumers with a comprehensive description of the shared data provided by a listing, including a high-level summary of the shared data and description of each individual object included in the shared data. The data dictionary allows data consumers to understand the contents of the shared data and how to use the shared data.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2022Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Snowflake Inc.Inventors: Durga Mahesh Arikatla, Robert K. Chao, Li He, Joyce Lam, Xinyue Liu, Subramanian Muralidhar, Vishnu Dutt Paladugu, Shakhina Pulatova, Stephanie Stillman, Xin Wen, Di Wu, Ziqi Xu

Publication number: 20240111885Abstract: A data dictionary generation system utilizes a background service that is programmed to automatically populate and update a data dictionary for listings offering shared data. A data dictionary includes metadata describing the shared data overall as well as the individual objects included in the listing, such as the individual tables, schemas, views, and functions. To generate the data dictionary, the data dictionary generation system analyzes the shared data to identify objects, identifies a set of data fields associated with each identified object and populates the set of data fields associated with each identified object based on the shared data offered by the listing. To ensure that a data dictionary for each listing remains up to date, the data dictionary generation system periodically scans the listings to identify any changes to share access granted to the listings.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 25, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Durga Mahesh Arikatla, Subramanian Muralidhar, Vishnu Dutt Paladugu, Shakhina Pulatova, Di Wu, Ziqi Xu

Publication number: 20240111784Abstract: A data dictionary generation system automatically populates and updates a data dictionary for listings offering shared data. The data listing distribution component distributes the data dictionaries to various remote deployments in a data exchange by using a global messaging framework and replication method. For example, the data listing distribution component replicates a data dictionary generated for the listing and its shared data from a source deployment to one or more destination deployments associated with various geographic regions. The data listing distribution component distributes the listing to the various remote deployments to allow for the listing, including its shared data and data dictionary, to be accessed by users within the geographic region associated with the remote deployment.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 10, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Durga Mahesh Arikatla, Subramanian Muralidhar, Vishnu Dutt Paladugu, Shakhina Pulatova, Di Wu, Ziqi Xu

Patent number: 11834353Abstract: A UV reactor for disinfecting water. The UV reactor may include a cooling chamber in which heat from a UV source may be transferred to the water flowing through the UV reactor. The UV reactor may include driver circuitry operable to determine status information, such as health, of the UV source. The UV reactor may include a gas discharge path operable to substantially prevent accumulation of gas within a water treatment chamber.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2022Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: Access Business Group International LLCInventors: Ziqi Wu, Joshua B. Taylor, Daniel L Schlenk, Jeffrey A. Shumate

Patent number: 11241591Abstract: An acoustic module with a transducer and a solid waveguide. The transducer and waveguide may be curved to focus the acoustic energy along a focal line. The transducer, the top surface of the waveguide and the bottom surface of the waveguide may extend along coaxial curves. The waveguide may include a recess closely receiving the transducer. The waveguide may include an integral skirt that provides a thermal mass. The acoustic module may include a space to accommodate thermal management options. For example, the acoustic module may include a heatsink, an active ventilation system and/or a phase change material. The ultrasound device may include a controller configured to perform a uniformity scan sweep during supply of operating power to the transducer. The uniformity scan sweep can extend through a frequency range that includes the operating point of the acoustic module and does not exceed an acceptable efficiency loss.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2016Date of Patent: February 8, 2022Assignee: Access Business Group International LLCInventors: Ronald L. Stoddard, Michael E. Miles, Matthew J. Norconk, Joshua K. Schwannecke, Joseph C. Van Den Brink, Colin J. Moore, A. Esai Umenei, Ryan D. Schamper, Mark S. Bartrum, Benjamin C.
