Abstract: A system and method for performing load balancing of systems in a multi-tenancy computing environment by shifting tenants from an overloaded system to a non-overloaded system. Initially, a determination is made as to whether a first tenant desires an access to an instance of a software application. The same instance of the software application is being accessed by other tenants of a first system. If the tenant desires access to the same instance of the software application, the tenant is created at the first system. The created first tenant and the other tenants exist in a multi-tenancy computing environment that enables the first tenant and the other tenants to access a same instance of a software application. Then, it is checked whether the first system is overloaded. If the first system is overloaded, load balancing is performed as follows. The first tenant is exported from the overloaded first system to a lesser loaded second system.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for analyzing user-behavior using a TaP algorithm. For example, raw data are collected and segmented to become segmented data. In this example, the TaP algorithm in combination with a sliding time window is implemented to derive a convex hull polygon. A determination of geometric properties of the derived convex hull polygon facilitates the analysis of the user-behavior.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a framework for generating and providing self-distinguishable identifiers as to users. In accordance with one aspect, an entry is retrieved from an object, wherein the entry includes one or more fields. The one or more fields may be concatenated to create a concatenated string.

Advantages to these techniques include revision safe system upgrades and that the process is automated, thus reducing expensive operation costs. Techniques include receiving a landscape model describing changes to a customer landscape, identifying a customer-side system within a customer landscape to upgrade based on the landscape model, and identifying a server-side system within the server landscape that is associated with the customer-side system, and scheduling the customer-side system and the server-side system for upgrade.

Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for reusable and late addition enabled XML data binding are described herein. A computer receives an element class that is created for a non-atomic class. The element class comprises a first constructor, a decomposer that returns data extracted from an object for an entity to aid in serialization, and a composer that extracts value of the entity and creates a new instance of the non-atomic class using the extracted value to aid in de-serialization. The object is of type non-atomic class. The computer also receives an attribute class that is created for an atomic class to which the non-atomic class refers to. The attribute class comprises a second constructor, a serializer, and a de-serializer. The computer then generates an XML document using the element class and the attribute class.

Abstract: Some examples of security cloud computing environments can be implemented as methods. A processor of a first computer system that lacks permission to store data in a cloud computing environment receives data to be stored in the cloud computing environment. The data is received from a second computer system implementing the cloud computing environment and having permissions to store data in the cloud computing environment. The processor of the first computer system determines that the received data is safe for storage in the cloud computing environment. The processor of the first computer system determines that the received data is safe for storage in the cloud computing environment. The processor of the first computer system provides a notification to the second computer system indicating that the received data is safe for storage in the cloud computing environment, and an identifier that points to the stored data at the computer-readable storage medium.

Abstract: Reference packages may include a self-contained set of implementation tasks, that when executed at a computing system, provide the computing system with a particular functionality. Implementation tasks in a reference package may be compared to an existing configuration of a computing system to determine which of the implementation tasks have already been executed/installed in the computing system and which have not. Implementation tasks that have not been installed may be selected for inclusion in a final target package. Implementation tasks that have been partially installed or installed differently in the existing computing system from the implementation tasks may have secondary tasks added to them in the final target package. Each secondary task may enable a change to the configuration of the existing system to resolve the configuration inconsistency between the existing configuration in the computing system and the configuration specified in a corresponding implementation task.

Abstract: A request handler may receive transaction requests for transactions to be executed using data of a database, and may classify a first transaction request of the transaction requests as a simple transaction request, and a second transaction request of the transaction requests as a complex transaction request. A key-value store engine may execute a first transaction satisfying the first transaction request, using a key-value store of pre-calculated results determined prior to receipt of the first transaction request, and based on the data, and may update a key-value delta reflecting a change, if any, of the key-value store caused by the first transaction. A relational store engine may cause the at least one processor to execute a second transaction satisfying the second transaction request, using a relational store including a subset of the data, and may update a relational delta reflecting a change, if any, of the relational store caused by the second transaction.

Abstract: A thread dump analysis tool analyzes a series of thread dumps and identifies one or more potential problems in the application from which the thread dumps were generated. Hints regarding the potential problems are presented. The hints can be generated based on relative values generated by analysis of sequential dumps. The hints may be hints that could not be generated by analysis of a single thread dump. Other hints may be hints that are enhanced by analysis of multiple thread dumps, whose importance is made clearer by appearance in multiple thread dumps, or that are unchanged in detection, importance, or both, by the use of multiple thread dumps. The hints can then be presented in order of importance. Additionally or alternatively, hints below a certain threshold of importance can be hidden.

Abstract: Embodiments extend the relational model and language of standard SQL, to recognize features of higher level entity-relationship models (ERMs). Annotation language is implemented in the data design language (DDL) to incorporate tables and entities Using DDL, annotations are typed structures of metadata. Annotations may be used for types, entities and elements. In the query language (QL), annotations may be added to the standard QL. A reflection program may use the metadata of the annotation language for reflection on the tables or entities.
