In certain embodiments, the server's class path need not be modified during this process, and the server need not be shut down or restarted. Certain embodiments may implement a parallel class loader. Custom plug-in file code may be loaded by the parallel class loader, and the parallel class loader is started a container class loader may be made the parent of the parallel class loader.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for transparent configuration of virtual hosts to support timestamping of documents that are processed in multiple time zones within an enterprise platform. Embodiments use network address translation and virtual host initialization techniques to configure a port listener such that the port listener receives IP packets from the network interface and uses the subnet's network address IP address to map to a time zone correspondence. When the identified time zone corresponds to a first time zone, then the port listener forwards the IP packet to a first virtual host process that has been initialized with a first time zone virtual time clock used for timestamping. When the identified time zone corresponds to a second time zone, the port listener forwards the IP packet to a second virtual host process that has been initialized with a second time zone virtual time clock used for timestamping.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for reconfiguring hardware structures to pipeline the execution of multiple special purpose hardware implemented functions, without saving intermediate results to memory, is provided. Pipelining functions in a program is typically performed by a first function saving its results (the “intermediate results”) to memory, and a second function subsequently accessing the memory to use the intermediate results as input. Saving and accessing intermediate results stored in memory incurs a heavy performance penalty, requires more power, consumes more memory bandwidth, and increases the memory footprint. Due to the ability to redirect the input and output of the hardware structures, intermediate results are passed directly from one special purpose hardware implemented function to another without storing the intermediate results in memory.

Abstract: A flexible and extensible architecture allows for secure searching across an enterprise. Such an architecture can provide a simple Internet-like search experience to users searching secure content inside (and outside) the enterprise. The architecture allows for the crawling and searching of a variety of sources across an enterprise, regardless of whether any of these sources conform to a conventional user role model. The architecture further allows for security attributes to be submitted at query time, for example, in order to provide real-time secure access to enterprise resources. The user query also can be transformed to provide for dynamic querying that provides for a more current result list than can be obtained for static queries.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for caching external data sources for SQL processing. According to an embodiment, a database system receives a query that requires foreign data from an external data source. In response to receiving the query, the database system determines whether the foreign data currently resides in a cache of the database system. In response to determining that the foreign does not currently reside in the cache, the database system retrieves the foreign data from the external data source, maps the foreign data to a column granule of a table, and stores the column granule in the cache. In another embodiment, the database system receives a second query that requires the foreign data. In response to determining that the foreign data is cached with the stored column granule, the database system retrieves the column granule from the cache.

Abstract: A transactional server is configured to receive a transactional procedure call from a client to initiate one or more transaction processes. Said transactional server includes a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) authentication server which is configured to forward the transactional procedure call from the transactional server to a distributed authentication server for authentication. When the transactional procedure call to initiate a transaction is received at the transactional server, the LDAP authentication server identifies a user associated with the transactional procedure call, determines that the distributed authentication server should authenticate the user, and initiates an LDAP session between the transactional server and the distributed authentication server.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for cloud-based deployments of software applications that are monitored for compliance with regulatory requirements. One exemplary method commences upon receiving an indication of a compliance corpus such as HIPPA or SOX, then mapping the compliance corpus to one or more predetermined configurations of a virtual compliance platform. Any of the particular predetermined configurations include steps, operations, and/or rules for provisioning infrastructure (e.g., using cloud-resident resources). After provisioning the virtual compliance platform based on the predetermined configuration, the provisioning operations further deploys a compliance monitor. The compliance monitor encapsulates the software application within the compliance monitor so as to monitor and/or log the operation and performance of the software application with respect to the compliance regulations. In some cases, a virtual compliance platform includes a virtual machine.
