    Abstract: A computer-implemented method can receive a hierarchy table comprising a plurality of records associated with objects organized in a hierarchical structure. The records comprise values corresponding to a plurality of displayable fields and specify value distributions among the objects. The method can specify one or more viewable fields at an input area of a graphical user interface, and display a plurality of nodes and a plurality of directional links connecting the displayed nodes on a display window of the graphical user interface. The displayed nodes represent objects whose associated records have unique combinations of values corresponding to the specified viewable fields. The directional links represent value distributions among objects represented by the displayed nodes. The method can display aggregated value distributed to or from objects represented by the displayed nodes. The viewable fields specify which of the displayable fields are visible on the displayed nodes.

  • Patent number: 11972367
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for detecting erroneous data. In an embodiment, a data monitoring system may store an initial dataset. The data monitoring system may analyze the initial dataset to generate rules associated with the initial dataset. The data monitoring system may receive a new data entry from a client device intended to be associated with the initial dataset. The data monitoring system may compare the new data entry to the previously determined rules to determine if the new data entry complies. If so, the data monitoring system may store the new data entry. If not, the data monitoring system may generate an alert, requesting a confirmation that the noncompliant data entry is correct. If the noncompliant data is confirmed as correct, the data monitoring system may store the new data entry and update the rules associated with the updated dataset.

  • Patent number: 11972312
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for synchronizing data in a source system to an application without relying on middleware. An embodiment operates by performing an initial load of records for an object for an application from a source system, thereby retrieving a first set of records. The embodiment first maps the first set of records to the object using a transform template. The embodiment creates the object in the application using the first set of records based on the first mapping. The embodiment performs a delta load of records for the object from the source system, thereby retrieving a second set of records. The embodiment second maps the second set of records to the object using the transform template. The embodiment then updates the object using the second set of records based on the second mapping.

  • Patent number: 11973836
    Abstract: In an implementation, a shutdown coordinator sends an instruction to a router to no longer assign new sessions to an application instance, where the application instance is to be shut down. The shutdown coordinator sends a request to the application instance to export associated sessions for handover to a new application instance. The shutdown coordinator receives an indication from the application instance that no further requests can be processed by the application instance since all associated sessions have been exported to an external session storage. The shutdown coordinator instructs the router to redirect requests to the application instance to the new application instance. The shutdown coordinator shuts down the application instance. The shutdown coordinator deletes remaining sessions of all associated sessions from the external session storage after a defined timeout period.

  • Patent number: 11972272
    Abstract: An application server provides an application to client devices. Users of the client devices interact with the application to perform a business process. Data regarding user interactions with the application is transmitted from the client devices to the application server. Based on an analysis of the received data, a bot generation server generates a bot to automate a process step. The bot generation server provides a heatmap user interface (UI) that provides information regarding the process steps. Using the heatmap UI, the administrator selects a process step for automation. In response to the selection, the hot generation server identifies, based on the observed behavior, relationships between input fields, typical values for input fields, typical order of data entry into input fields, or any suitable combination thereof. Based on the identified patterns, the hot generation server generates a bot to automate some or all of the process step.

  • Patent number: 11971913
    Abstract: Programs, systems, and methods for generating a support tree for automated resolution of user issues. In some embodiments, historical data may be obtained from a history of support interactions including historical issues and solutions to the historical issues. Most used solutions may be determined and stored with associated historical issues. Clusters of issues and solutions may be generated and labeled for generation of support tree nodes. Furthermore, solutions may be correlate such that a plurality of solutions may be provided for the resolving user issues. In some embodiments, issue data indicative of user issues may be provided by users. As the user provides issue data, deflections between nodes on the support tree may narrow a field of potential solutions to one or more solutions to be provided to the user.

  • Patent number: 11971849
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, methods and systems may manage a fleet of multi-tenant logical databases in Relational Database Management System (“RDBMS”) servers for a cloud computing environment. The system may include a pool of physical RDBMS servers (e.g., Postgre-Structured Query Language (“SQL”) servers) and a tenant-aware Application Programming Interface (“API”) that is accessed by tenants. A computer processor of a database allocation engine may receive, from the tenant-aware API, a request to provision a logical database including a tenant identifier associated with a requesting tenant. The database allocation may then select an eligible physical RDBMS server in the pool of physical RDBMS servers and allocate a logical database for the requesting tenant via the selected physical RDBMS server (e.g., using the tenant identifier).

  • Patent number: 11971889
    Abstract: A method for intelligent query plan cache size management can be implemented. During execution of a plurality of incoming queries in a database management system, the method can measure actual compilation times of generating query execution plans for the plurality of incoming queries. The database management system can have a query execution plan cache which has a size that can store at least some of the query execution plans. The method can monitor differences between the actual compilation times and ideal compilation times of generating query execution plans for the plurality of incoming queries. The ideal compilation times can be estimated by assuming no query execution plan is evicted from the query execution plan cache. The method can adjust the size of the query execution plan cache based on the monitored differences.
