Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for customizing a preview content of an email template assigned to a marketing campaign are described herein. The method involves receiving a request to preview an email template. In response, a content of the email template including placeholders is invoked and the HyperText markup language (HTML) elements for the placeholders is identified. Further, descriptive names for the identified HTML elements are derived according to a correspondence language of the user. In an aspect, the correspondence language of the user is determined based on the user's language selection at the time of login.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method receives a query for analyzing data in a database. The query includes a first level calculation that is performed before a second level calculation. The method determines an operator in the query configured to explicitly remove group by information for a reference characteristic in the first level calculation where the group by information is specified for the reference characteristic in the second level calculation. The first level calculation is performed by removing the group by information for the reference characteristic for the first level calculation to determine a first level calculation result and the second level calculation is performed using the first level calculation result using the group by information for the reference characteristic to determine a second level calculation result.

Abstract: Implementations of complex software solutions are accompanied with an intrinsic conflict between requirements, such as an ever-growing complexity of enterprise software solutions versus a demand for more and more shortened implementation cycles. Various embodiments include at least one of systems methods and software to address such conflicts. One method embodiment includes receiving a request to assemble a virtual appliance from at least one deployment template, the request including characteristic data representative of at least one virtual appliance functional and deployment requirement. In response to the received request, such embodiments may query a template warehouse to identify and deployment templates from a template warehouse to a data storage device to form a virtual appliance. The virtual appliance may then be packaged into a transport data structure and stored. The transport data structure may then be transported by various means to a target virtual machine and deployed therein.

Abstract: Example systems and methods of deleting data stored in a database system are presented. In one example, a plurality of data items is received from an application and stored at the database system. Also received from the application and stored at the database system is deletion timing information for each of the data items. The deletion timing information for a data item may indicate when the data item is to be deleted from the database system. At least one of the data items may be deleted at the database system at a time indicated by its corresponding deletion timing information without assistance from the application.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for dynamic bytecode modification of classes and class hierarchies are described herein. In various embodiments, a Java® agent is received at a launch of a Java® Virtual Machine (JVM®), the agent implementing a premain method, the premain method accepting a reference to an instrumentation instance. The instrumentation reference is then stored, a deployment container is initialized, and, within the deployment container, an instance of an application is created. The instrumentation reference is then provided to the application instance. A class transformer is then retrieved from a persistence provider, and the class transformer is wrapped by an O.R. Persistence Container Class Transformer, which is then registered with the instrumentation instance. A class to be transformed is passed to the class transformer, which dynamically modifies the bytecode of the class before the class is loaded by the JVM®.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for sizing an application running on a virtual machine. In one aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method. The method may include registering, at a monitor, one or more controllers associated with one or more corresponding applications. Configuration information may be received for one or more corresponding applications. Event information may be provided to the one or more controllers to enable the one or more controllers to adjust one or more aspects of the corresponding applications. The event information may represent changes in resources (e.g., at the physical machine hosting the virtual machine and application). The aspects may be adjusted based on the changes.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, static code analysis is performed by designating a first portion of the computer code as base line code. A check run is then performed on the base line code, resulting in one or more findings, with each finding identifying a flaw in the base line code discovered by the check run. The one or more findings may then be designated as a base line. Then a subsequent check run on a modified version of the computer code is performed, resulting in one or more subsequent findings. The one or more findings of the base line are then subtracted from the one or more subsequent findings, resulting in a modified version of the one or more subsequent findings. The modified version of the one or more subsequent findings may then be displayed on a display.

Abstract: A system includes determination of a value identifier for each value of a first table, based on a data dictionary of a second table, generation of a hash function, the hash function mapping, for each row of the first table, one or more value identifiers of one or more columns of the row to a pointer to the row, application of the hash function to one or more value identifiers of a row of a second table, determination of whether the output of the hash function is a valid hash, and, if it is determined that the output of the hash function is a valid hash, determination that the row of the second table is associated with the first table.

Abstract: A system and method for running an application on multiple databases is described. A selection of data stored in a database to be used in conjunction with an in-memory database is identified. A selection of a storage mode corresponding to a dual system storage mode or a source system storage mode is received. The selection of data is initialized in the in-memory database. An entry corresponding to the selection of data is generated in a lookup table when the dual system storage mode is selected.

A table group name associated with the table can be obtained and used in conjunction with the node type and determination of whether to partition the table to store the table in the distributed database on at least one node of the plurality of nodes as one or more partitions.

Abstract: Systems and methods to provide a schema validation proxy to capture and validate messages against their schemas are discussed. The messages are part of web services being called from a client system at a server system. In example embodiments, a request message is received from a client system at a proxy system. Upon receipt of the request message, an automatic download of a schema definition file is triggered. The request message is validated against one or more schemas from the downloaded schema definition file. The request message is forwarded to the server system and the proxy system waits for the response. The corresponding response message is received by the proxy system and is validated against its schema. One or more log files are created to record results of the validating. The log files include a consolidated log file providing an overview of the results during a session.
