Abstract: The disclosure generally describes methods, software, and systems for completing near-zero downtime system upgrades. A new access schema for a new version of a system is created and stored. The system uses an existing access schema corresponding to a current version of the system. For the new version of the system, a shadow client is created that includes customizations and read-only views to master data and application data. Projection views into the new access schema are created from the shadow client. Using the new access schema and the shadow client, customization changes to the master and application data are automatically performed and stored at the shadow client. Upon receiving a request to switch to the new version of the system, the virtual transport is imported to a shadow-phase of the production client. The production client is switched to begin using the new access schema.

Abstract: Proxy-based access occurs between a cloud database and analytical client tool, without requiring a separate intervening application server. A client proxy (tool side) communicates exclusively with a server proxy (database side). In response to a connect request in a database protocol (e.g., Structured Query Language—SQL) received from the tool by the client proxy, the server proxy is caused to initiate an authentication process (e.g., using Security Assertion Markup Language—SAML) with an Identity Provider (IdP). The client proxy intercepts and extracts a security token from the IdP in order to establish a tunnel with the server proxy. Upon ultimately receiving the connect command through the tunnel, the server proxy replaces an end-user credential (recognized by the tool but meaningless to the database) with the security token in order to establish a technical user and a query session context that can be recognized by the database.

Abstract: The described technologies can be used for consent handling during data harvesting. In one example, a method can include receiving social media data associated with a user identifier and a first country code. A stored consent configuration rule can specify whether to store the social media data anonymously or non-anonymously. The consent configuration rule can be associated with a second country code. It can be determined whether the second country code associated with the consent configuration rule matches the first country code associated with the social media data. When the second country code associated with the consent configuration rule does not match the first country code associated with the social media data, the social media data can be stored in a quarantine.

Abstract: Technologies are described for facilitating transaction processing within a database environment having a coordinator node, a first worker node, and at least a second worker node. The first worker node sends a request from to the coordinator node for at least a first synchronization token maintained by the coordinator node. The first worker node receives the at least a first synchronization token from the coordinator node. The first worker node assigns the at least a first synchronization token to a snapshot as a snapshot ID value. The snapshot is executed at the first worker node. The first worker node forwards the snapshot ID value to the at least a second worker node.

Abstract: Implementations include actions of initiating a procedure on an application that interacts with a database system having a start schema, through which a first version of the application interacts with tables, providing a bridge schema including table views to each table of the start schema, switching a first version of the application to interact through the bridge schema, creating a shadow field in a table, the shadow field corresponding to a field of the table that is to undergo a change during an upgrade from the first version to a second version, providing a trigger in the start schema, the trigger executing a transformation between the field and the shadow field during the upgrade, modifying the table in the start schema to a target structure to change a parameter of the shadow field or the field of the table, and switching the second version to interact through the start schema.

Abstract: Techniques are described for sharing data among Internet of Things (IoT) networks. An IoT network may include a platform that collects data generated by IoT devices. The platform may execute an agent that sends a communication to indicate the network presence of the sending platform to broker module(s) that support a data sharing service. The communication may also indicate the type and/or quantity of data generated by the sending platform and available to be shared with other receiving platforms in other IoT networks. The data broker module(s) may generate and send security tokens to the agents executing on the sending platform and receiving platform(s). Using the security tokens, the respective agents may establish a peer-to-peer (P2P) connection over a network over which the data is streamed in real time as it is received and/or processed by the sending platform.

Abstract: Account data comprising metadata for primary application instances running at a primary active cloud environment instance (ACEI) is stored. Application data associated with the primary application instances is stored at primary databases (DBs). The account and application data are transferred to secondary DBs at a secondary ACEI. The secondary ACEI may be a backup instance to substitute services provided by the primary ACEI in case of unavailability. For example, the location where the primary ACEI is hosted may be affected by a disaster. To failover a primary data center hosting the primary ACEI, a database takeover to the secondary DBs is performed. The secondary ACEI is configured correspondingly to the primary ACEI based on the transferred account data. Secondary application instances corresponding to the primary application instances are started at the secondary ACEI. Requests directed to the primary application instances are redirected to the secondary application instances.

Abstract: A query rewriter associated with a database management system or visualization client rewrites a database query based on properties, characteristics, etc. of the visualization to be rendered by the visualization client. For example, the query rewriter receives an initial query and one or more visualization parameters (such as width, height and/or type of visualization) for the visualization client. The query rewriter rewrites the initial query based on the visualization parameter(s), so as to produce a data-reducing query, and then outputs the data-reducing query for execution. The query rewriter can selectively rewrite the initial query depending on size of query results of the initial query. In some example implementations, the query rewriting models a process of rasterization of geometric primitives by the visualization client, so as to facilitate error-free visualization.
