Abstract: A data modeling platform allows a user to enter a search request using natural language (e.g., typed or spoken). The search request may be semantically parsed to provide mapping to various database search elements. Pre-existing data models may be identified from the database search elements. One or more new data models may be created from the database search elements. The results represent candidate data models in response to the user's search request.

Abstract: Example methods and systems are directed to a multiple transaction interface framework. A system may comprise three computing devices. The first computing device may be accessible to a plurality of users. The second computing device may be inaccessible to the plurality of users, but accessible by a user account of the first computing device. The third computing device may be inaccessible to the plurality of users, and inaccessible by the user account of the first computing device, but accessible by a user account of the second computing device. In some example embodiments, the first computing device causes a user interface to be presented. The user interface may include data retrieved from the second computing device. The data may have been retrieved by the second computing device from the third computing device, which may be configured to store the data.

Abstract: An electric socket can include a visual indicator capable of displaying time-series forecast information that forecasts a property or attribute related to the power being sourced from an energy provider. The information being displayed on the visual indicator can help an energy consumer decide whether to use an appliance now by plugging it into the electric socket or wait until some optimal time in the future to plug the appliance in.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for selecting columns for re-encryption in join operations. In some implementations, actions include determining a first column and a second column to be joined, receiving a first key corresponding to the first column and a second key corresponding to the second column, receiving a first rank associated with the first key and a second rank associated with the second key, selecting the second column for re-encryption based on the first rank and the second rank, and providing the first column, the second column, and the first key for performing a join operation, the second column being re-encrypted based on the first key.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, on-premise systems have access to a cloud connector located on-premise. When the on-premise cloud connector is started, it may establish a secure connection to a notification service residing in the cloud. Applications running on the cloud have access to a connectivity agent. Cloud applications wishing to communicate with the on-premise systems send the communications through the connectivity agent. If a secure connection between the connectivity agent and the cloud connector does not exist, the connectivity agent sends a request to open a secure connection to the notification service. The notification service forwards the request to the cloud connector over its secure connection. The cloud connector may check the requested connection, and if authorized, open a secure connection to the connectivity agent. The connectivity agent then forwards the communication to the cloud connector, which then forwards it to the on-premise system.

Abstract: Example methods and systems are directed to a staging engine. A system may comprise two computing devices. The first computing device may be accessible to a plurality of users. The second computing device may be inaccessible to the plurality of users, but accessible by the first computing device. The first computing device may cause a user interface (“UI”) to be presented to a user accessing the first computing device. The UI may include data retrieved from the second computing device and may be operable to store data. The data entered into the UI for storage may be incomplete relative to the data structures expected by the second computing device. The first computing device or the second computing device may stage the data until additional data that completes the expected data structures is received. After the expected data is complete, the data may be stored.

Abstract: Column accesses to columns of one or more database tables may be determined based on database queries accessing the one or more database tables. Row accesses to rows of the one or more database tables may be determined based on the queries. A priority may be assigned to a column of a row from the one or more database tables based on the determined column accesses of the column and the row accesses of the row. The column of the row may be moved from random access memory to hard disk based on the assigned priority.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable mediums are provided for generating master reports. For example, a request to generate a master report may be received from a client device. Release data that includes a list of programs being developed is obtained from a program repository tool. Programs from the list of programs matching the search criteria are then identified. Business case data is then obtained from a business case tool for each matching program. Program process data is also obtained from a product and production tool for each matching program. Using an integrity rule, issues in the release data, the business case data, and the program process data are detected. The master report is generated such that the master report includes the release data, the business case data, the program process data, and the detected issues. The master report is then communicated to the client device.

Abstract: A process integration system to interface between a sender system and a receiver system is described. The process integration system has a sender adapter, an integration engine, a receiver adapter, and a language converter module. The sender adapter receives a communication in a first language from the sender system. The communication is in a first format of the sender system. The sender adapter converts the communication into a second format of the process integration system, and the integration engine identifies the receiver system from the communication in the second format. The receiver adapter converts the communication from the second format to a third format of the receiver system, and sends the communication in the third format and in a second language to the receiver system. The language converter module translates the communication in the third format to the second language associated with the receiver system.
