Abstract: Systems and methods for securing a computer system are described herein. The systems and methods, which are computer-implemented, involve receiving, by a computing device, a name of a software vulnerability. The computing device measures a lexical similarity distance between the vulnerability name and each name in a list of names of software systems and components of the computer system. The computing device further identifies the software system and component names that are within a predetermined similarity distance of the vulnerability name as corresponding to software systems and components having the software vulnerability. Once the vulnerabilities are detected and mapped to corresponding software systems and components, the systems and methods can generate derivative works (e.g., reports, charts, and other derivative data) for further data processing, storage or analysis by different stake holders and/or other computing devices.

Abstract: Innovations in the areas of determining search areas and queries for database searches are presented. For example, a search tool receives input for a search area for a database search. For the database search, the search tool determines one or more target tables that fit the search area input. In this way, the search tool can determine “on-the-fly” which database tables are relevant for the database search. The search tool can also receive input for a search string and construct queries for the database search in the target table(s). For a field of a table, the search tool can selectively convert a search value to a data format of the field. If the search string input includes multiple search values, the search tool can construct an OR query and/or an AND query. The search results can indicate real-time status of the database, while accounting for complex structures of database tables.

Abstract: Selecting an output channel, from a plurality of output channels of a communication system associated with a database management system, for transmission of an entity document to an entity from the database management system. The determining based on an entity classification of the entity within the database management system. Responsive to receiving a service-orientated-architecture service request for the entity at the database management system, the service-orientated-architecture (SOA) service request is converted to a message having a format associated with the entity classification of the entity. Converting the SOA includes selecting, based on a content of the SOA service request, a template, having a predefined set of semantics, associated with the entity classification of the entity, selecting a semantic that corresponds to the SOA service request, and transmitting the message with the selected semantic through the output channel.

Abstract: A client system requests to upload an input data stream to a server system. The input data stream is split to a sequence of chunks. The chunks are transferred in parallel by a number of connections from the client system to the server system. At the server system, the transferred chunks are merged into an output stream according to the sequence. The output stream represents the rebuilt input stream.

Abstract: A denormalized table, referred to as a semantic cluster table, allows for improved database system performance. Rather than accessing multiple tables, database operations can access a single table, which can reduce the number and complexity of database operations. The semantic cluster table includes a semantic indicator field. Different values of the semantic indicator field can be associated with different semantic contexts, allowing data to be accessed at a coarse granularity. Each semantic context can also be associated with one or more attribute fields, which can be used to access data, including at different level of granularity than the semantic indicator field value alone. Each semantic context can also be associated with specific key figure fields, which can preserve the different semantic contexts of data in the semantic cluster table.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, primary data is received from a first tenant in a computer network, the primary data formatted based on a first version of a schema. Then a schema definition for the first version of the schema is obtained. The primary data is then parsed, the parsing including storing a schema version number for the first version of the schema. The primary data is indexed, by obtaining, using the schema version number for the first version of the schema, a schema definition for a most recent version of the schema; applying schema evolution to the primary data by applying one or more transforms to the primary data, the one or more transforms created using the schema definition for the first and most recent versions of the schema, causing the primary data to be converted to the most recent version of the schema; and indexing the converted primary data.
