Patent number: 10747737Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for altering the data type of a column in a database. An embodiment operates by converting an original dictionary associated with a column into a new dictionary. The new dictionary stores the values of the original dictionary using a different data type. An index vector containing the keys of the original dictionary is then updated to contain the associated keys of the new dictionary. Because the size of the original dictionary is often substantially smaller than the number of rows in the associated column, this dictionary conversion decreases the computation cost to the database system of altering the data type of the column and reduces or even minimizes database downtime for users.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2014Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Colin Florendo, Ivan Schreter, Panfeng Zhou, David Wein, Steffen Geissinger, Michael Muehle

Patent number: 10496816Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for associating an entity with a risk score that may indicate a security threat associated with the entity's activity. An exemplary method may involve monitoring the activity of a subset of the set of entities (e.g., entities included in a watch list) by executing a search query against events indicating the activity of the subset of entities. The events may be associated with timestamps and may include machine data. Executing the search query may produce search results that pertain to activity of a particular entity from the subset. The search results may be evaluated based on a triggering condition corresponding to the statistical baseline. When the triggering condition is met, a risk score for the particular entity may be updated. The updated risk score may be displayed to a user via a graphical user interface (GUI).Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2018Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: SPLUNK INC.Inventors: Ravi Iyer, Devendra Badhani, Vijay Chauhan

Patent number: 10437804Abstract: A method and system for storing complex graph data. The graph data is represented by triples, quadruples, quintuples, etc. In order to speed up storage and retrieval of graph data, the data is stored in a form of triples, quadruples, quintuples, etc. in a B-tree. The B-trees are data structures that allow operations on dynamic data sets. The operations can be search, search for minimum and maximum values, insert, delete, reference to parent or child directory. The tree can be used as a dictionary or as a prioritized chain. The speed of tree operations is proportional to the height. The data is read as blocks from the same location. If a tree node is moved to an operational memory, an allocated memory block is moved and the operation executes very fast.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2015Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: Comindware Ltd.Inventors: Maxim V. Tsypliaev, Peter A. Volynskiy
