Abstract: In some embodiments, environment solutions are received from local solution control centers for respective companies. The environment solutions generated from environmental data received from multiple environments being operated by a respective company. The environment solutions for the environment solutions are converted to anonymous environment solutions and the environmental data to anonymous environmental data. The method applies first machine learning logic to the anonymous environment solutions for the environment solutions to generate first set of solutions and applies second machine learning logic to the anonymous environmental data to generate second set of solutions. The first set of solutions and the second set of solutions are tested for comparable solutions. One of the first set of solutions and the second set of solutions is then selected based on the testing.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for storing a large object (LOB) in a database. An embodiment operates by identifying the LOB to be stored in an on-disk store of the database and determining the size of the LOB. Thereafter, an index vector for the on-disk store to include an identifier corresponding to the LOB is created. Additionally, a dictionary for the on-disk store to include a copy of the identifier and corresponding LOB data is also created. The LOB data corresponds to the LOB itself or a LOB location inside of the on-disk store based on the LOB's size.

Abstract: Embodiments allow automated provisioning of a plan upgrade for databases hosted in storage environments. A database is hosted in a shared storage environment according an existing plan, based upon consumption of available system resources (e.g., processing, I/O, memory, disk). An agent periodically issues requests for information relevant to database behavior (e.g., performance metrics, query logs, and/or knob settings). The agent collects the received information (e.g., via a domain socket), performing analysis thereon to predict whether future database activity is expected remain within the existing plan. Such analysis can include but is not limited to compiling statistics, and calculating values such as entropy, information divergence, and/or adjusted settings for database knobs. Based upon this analysis, the agent communicates a recommendation including a plan update and supporting statistics.

Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for tuning a database service in a cloud platform. A tuning service may access a neural network model trained to classify workload points to one of classes. The tuning service may execute the neural network model with a first source workload point as input to return a first class as output, where the first source workload describing a source database. The tuning service may select a target workload for the first source workload point from a plurality of reference workloads. Selecting the target workload may be based at least in part on the first class returned by the neural network model. The tuning service may generate a recommended knob configuration for the source database using the target workload.

Abstract: System, method, and various embodiments for providing a hybrid data storage and load system are described herein. An embodiment operates by receiving a lookup request comprising a row identifier (ROWID) corresponding to a row of a table of a database. Which of a first set of pages corresponds to a sorted position of the ROWID is identified. The identified page of the first set of pages is loaded from the disk storage to the memory storage. A sorted row position of the ROWID is identified from a memory block of the loaded page from the first set of pages. One of a second set of pages that includes the sorted row position is identified. The identified one of the second set of pages is loaded from the disk storage into memory. The loaded identified one of the second set of pages is searched for the unsorted position of the ROWID.

Abstract: A global dictionary is described that corresponds to a database or table stored across multiple partitions. The global dictionary can be used to identify which partitions of the database contain records that are relevant to a user's query on the database. The global dictionary is made up of variable tables. Each variable table corresponds to a column of the database. A given variable table includes value tables where each value table corresponds to a defined value that has been assigned to a record in the database. A value table can include a list of partitions that contain a record having the related defined value.

Abstract: A global filter allows data filtering using attributes across multiple Analysis Tools (ATs), by broadcasting semantic filter context objects. Upon selecting object attribute values, the filter context object is created with attribute names and values. A processing engine resolves the filter context object to a data object, and then subsequently to target data. A lateral filter finds related entities in a relational database, without having to maintain and/or duplicate all of the data into a graph database. The processing engine resolves lateral filters using an entity graph path calculation conducted in conjunction with the generation of a bootstrapped graph structure. That graph structure is constructed (bootstrapped) utilizing available database schematic information—e.g., pre-calculated (key) relations and metadata read from the relational database. From that information, relationships in the bootstrapped graph structure are determined.

Abstract: A method, a system, and a computer program product for rewriting queries. A received query is parsed into a plurality of subqueries, where each subquery has one or more query elements. One or more identical subqueries are identified and grouped into one or more groups. Based on the groups of subqueries, an alias parameter is assigned to each identical subquery. The identical subqueries in the received query are replaced with corresponding aliases. An expression language statement is generated based on the received query, where each identical subquery is replaced with the corresponding assigned alias parameter in the expression language. The generated expression language statement is executed.
