  • Patent number: 11762910
    Abstract: A system and method for providing an improved user interface for executing data operations. A method includes: identifying a first node and a second node from different connections graphs, each node representing a respective user account, the user accounts of the first and second nodes sharing at least one common attribute; generating, based on the different connections graphs, an influence indicator for each of the first node and the second node; identifying a data operation executed by the first node on a dataset when the influence indicator of the first node is higher than the influence indicator of the second node, wherein the identified data operation causes generation or retrieval of business intelligence system data when executed; and sending data indicating the identified data operation to a device of the second node, wherein the device is configured to display a user interface including the identified data operation.

  • Patent number: 11755536
    Abstract: A data lineage system tracks performance of data flows through different transformations independent of the systems that perform the transformations. A data flow model is maintained as a graph in the data lineage system that is updated by data processors to include performance history of different transformations in the data flow. Subsequent analyses of the data flow model, such as tracing particular data, can be supported using the recorded performance information in the graph of the data flow model.

  • Patent number: 11748394
    Abstract: In embodiments, at a first cluster, information identifying a plurality of indexers of the first cluster is determined based on a master node of the first cluster identifying active indexers within the first cluster. The information is transmitted from the first cluster to a second cluster. Such information can include a list of active indexers, and an indication of how to communicate with the plurality of indexers that is used by the second cluster in distributing a distributed search query. The distributed search query is received at the plurality of indexers of the first cluster. The distributed search query is distributed across the plurality of indexers based on the information identifying the plurality of indexers. A response is provided from at least one of the plurality of indexers, wherein each response from a respective indexer is generated based on an evaluation of the distributed search query.

  • Patent number: 11734238
    Abstract: A system is provided for resolving data errors. The system is configured to obtain an erroneous data element received from a source system and generate a plurality of probable data values for the data element. For each probable data value of the plurality of probable data values, the system verifies whether the probable data value can be processed successfully by an Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) logic and by one or more target applications configured to process the data element. The system determines one of the probable data values as a suggested data value of the data element, based on the verification of the probable data values. The system outputs the suggested data value for processing by the ETL logic.

  • Patent number: 11734308
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for autonomous caching of hierarchical data. In one technique, query log data is stored that comprises multiple entries, each entry (a) corresponding to a different instance of a query that was executed against a database and (b) indicating a tuple (or level grouping) comprising a set of hierarchy levels corresponding to a set of dimensions. Multiple tuples indicated in the query log data are identified. For each tuple: (1) a set of entries that indicate the tuple is identified and the set of entries is associated with the tuple; (2) aggregated performance data is generated for the tuple based on performance data associated with each entry in the set of entries that is associated with the tuple; and (3) based on the aggregated performance data, it is determined whether to create a new auto-cache table or to delete an existing auto-cache table associated with the tuple.

  • Patent number: 11734124
    Abstract: Described is a system for rule-based re-tiering of backup data stored on a cloud-based object storage. More specifically, the system may re-tier objects based on one or more storage rules such that the system retains the ability to efficiently perform a full restore of backup data even when incremental backups are performed to a cloud-based object storage. To provide such a capability, the system may maintain a specialized metadata database that stores information indicating the backup time for each backup, and a list of objects required to perform a full restore to each of the backup times. Accordingly, when initiating a re-tiering based on one or more storage rules, the system may intelligently select candidate objects for re-tiering by leveraging the metadata database to ensure that objects that may still need to be referenced are not unnecessarily moved to a lower storage tier.

  • Patent number: 11720575
    Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to a method implemented on a computer system of database retrieval including organizing and suggesting search results by style, not just product category. In one embodiment, a computer implemented smoothing algorithm is used to adjust the ranking feature calculations from insufficient data. The use of smoothing improves the statistical confidence of the ranking features, creating a product ranking that is robust to small sample bias.

  • Patent number: 11704289
    Abstract: Provided are techniques for role reversal of primary and secondary sites with minimal replication delay. During a backup phase, an Input/Output (I/O) operation selected from a group comprising a create operation and a rename operation is received with one or more local attributes of a local file. The I/O operation is processed to generate one or more remote attributes. The one or more local attributes are stored with the one or more remote attributes. During a reversed phase, a write operation for the remote file is processed, and, the write operation is sent to the primary replication system with the one or more local attributes, where the primary replication system uses a local file handle in the one or more local attributes to access the local file for processing the write operation to sync the local file with the remote file.

  • Patent number: 11687527
    Abstract: A system for analyzing graph databases using intelligent reasoning systems including scalable collection of, and transformation of, graph data into facts suitable for use with programming logic languages doing deductive reasoning. A graph analyzer ingests disparate graph data from across the Internet and transforms the graph data into a fact table. In order to reduce latency and processing congestion, a stream processing engine and sharding strategy are employed to ensure scalability through parallelized processing of programming logic queries. Transformed graph data, now relational data, is utilized with programming logic languages that allow for hypothetical queries whereby an inference engine can deduce new information to satisfy such a query. Furthermore, the self-contained nature of inputs, outputs, and transformations of the system means strict data provenance can be observed and adhered to.

  • Patent number: 11687559
    Abstract: Computer system compares data across two data sources. Database connectivity drivers access the first and second data sources. RAM receives and stores data from each of the first and second data sources accessed by the drivers. The data from the first data source are stored in a first table in the RAM and data from the second data source are stored in a second table in the RAM. A processor compares data in the first and second tables. The processor is programmed to compare the data by identifying a set of primary keys across the first and second tables. The set of primary keys are a set of one or more columns in the both first and second tables that uniquely identify rows across both the first and second tables.
