  • Patent number: 11704441
    Abstract: A system and method can provide charter-based access to resources using an object model. Charters are defined by an administrator to have certain markings, each marking indicating a control (e.g., permission, credential, qualification, constraint, requirement, etc.) that regulates work under the charter. Users are also associated with markings. A user starts a session to access the system and is authenticated. The system determines charters having markings that the user has, and these charters are provided to the user to select from. Selecting a charter allows the user access to resources associated with the charter, under the controls indicated by the markings. Charters, controls, qualifications, resources, authorizations and links between them can be implemented using an object model. Markings can control session parameters (e.g.

  • Patent number: 11704325
    Abstract: Computer implemented systems and methods are disclosed for automatically clustering and canonically identifying related data in various data structures. Data structures may include a plurality of records, wherein each record is associated with a respective entity. In accordance with some embodiments, the systems and methods further comprise identifying clusters of records associated with a respective entity by grouping the records into pairs, analyzing the respective pairs to determine a probability that both members of the pair relate to a common entity, and identifying a cluster of overlapping pairs to generate a collection of records relating to a common entity. Clusters may further be analyzed to determine canonical names or other properties for the respective entities by analyzing record fields and identifying similarities.

  • Patent number: 11687543
    Abstract: A database system is described that includes components for storing time-series data and executing custom, user-defined computational expressions in substantially real-time such that the results can be provided to a user device for display in an interactive user interface. For example, the database system may process stored time-series data in response to requests from a user device. The request may include a start time, an end time, a period, and/or a computational expression. The database system may retrieve the time-series data identified by the computational expression and, for each period, perform the arithmetic operation(s) identified by the computational expression on data values corresponding to times within the start time and the end time. Once all new data values have been generated, the database system may transmit the new data values to the user device for display in the interactive user interface.

  • Patent number: 11689530
    Abstract: A system for managing custom code within a data computing platform determines that a request for one or more uniform resource identifiers external to the platform is being made by custom code executing in the platform. In response to the determination, the system checks a whitelist of allowable external URIs against the requested one or more URIs and allows access to the requested one or more URIs if a match is detected with the whitelist, otherwise access by the custom code to the requested one or more URIs is denied. In addition, or alternatively, the system checks a blacklist of disallowed external URIs against the requested one or more URIs and denies access to the requested one or more URIs if a match is detected with the blacklist, otherwise access by the custom code to the requested one or more URIs is allowed. The blacklist can override the whitelist.

  • Patent number: 11681606
    Abstract: One or more processors examine source code of one or more software packages that produce output messages and identify, in the source code, one or more call expressions that each represent a logging call. The one or more processors generate a number of search patterns for parsing output messages produced by the one or more software packages, wherein each of the search patterns is based on one or more arguments of a corresponding call expression of the one or more call expressions. The one or more processors further reduce the number of search patterns to be applied to the output messages produced by the one or more software packages to identify log entries among the output messages.

  • Patent number: 11681690
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that allow federated data from various source systems to be accessed and analyzed through a data analysis platform. The federated data may be stored in different formats. The data analysis platform can receive the federated data in whatever format it has been stored at its respective source system. A script can be used to generate temporary representations (or temporary objects) for the federated data by transforming the federated data. Moreover, the temporary representations or temporary objects can be further transformed into a data analysis platform-specific format. A user of data analysis platform may access and/or manipulate either the temporary representations or objects as well as the data analysis platform-specific objects. Temporary objects can be transformed automatically into corresponding platform-specific objects when necessary to provide an enhanced capability or operation on the objects.
