Abstract: A system stores financial accounting data in a Base ledger, together with overlying extension ledger(s). An engine receives both generic financial data, and financial data utilized for specific purposes. Utilizing a mapping table the engine stores in an underlying Base ledger, the generic financial data (e.g., a fixed asset acquisition). The engine stores in overlying extension ledgers, specific financial data (e.g., a linear asset depreciation and/or an declining balance method of asset depreciation) derived from that generic data. This reduces memory footprint by persisting the generic data in one location only. The stored data may be read utilizing dataviews combining data from Base and extension ledgers. A recursive algorithm may evaluate chain(s) of ledgers. Embodiments may be particularly suited to store in the Base ledger generic financial data common to multiple accounting principles (e.g.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to an improved technique for preemptive client application request processing based on observed use access patterns and/or models. The system includes a framework engine operable to trace sequences of requests to one or more service provider applications, including which particular client requests are likely to be followed by other particular client requests for each service. Based on the resulting traces, the framework can determine the probability of a particular request B following another particular request A. When request A is retrieved from the service provider application, and when the probability is high enough (e.g. >50%) that request B will follow request A in the sequence of requests, the framework is operable to simulate request B in a background process and provide a response to request B from a local memory storage.

Abstract: The disclosure generally describes computer-implemented methods, software, and systems, including a method for storing information. In a database including plural records having time-related characteristics, a time-related partition is identified for relocating records in the partition to secondary storage. For each pair in one or more pairs of different time-related characteristic values of the records in the partition, a time-related distance is determined between the different time-related characteristic values. The time-related distances are aggregated for the partition. Information is stored in an index in primary storage that identifies the aggregated time-related distances for the partition.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to an improved technique for maintaining a consistent state during data migration operations in an active database system. Data can be copied from database table(s) of the active database system into a corresponding database table(s) in the shadow system. Snapshots of the active system can be taken at a specified point in time and used to establish a point of consistency. Later, the snapshot data can be compared with the data in the shadow database system. If the data matches, then the active and shadow database systems are at a consistent state and the data migration process completes. If the data does not match, embodiments are configured to restore the consistent state at the specified point in time by copying the snapshot data into the shadow database table(s).
