Abstract: A method of managing locks in a database is performed by a row lock manager of a database master. The method includes receiving, from a transaction executing on the database master, a row lock request for a row in the database. The row lock request includes a page in the database where the row is located. The row lock request also includes a row lock mode of sufficient strength to perform the transaction. Then, sending, to a page lock manager, a request for a covering lock of the page. The request specifies a page lock mode of sufficient strength to satisfy the row lock mode. Also, receiving, from the page lock manager, a grant of the page lock. The page lock includes information on row locks of rows located in the page. Then, granting, to the transaction, the row lock.

Abstract: A distributed event processing system is disclosed that receives a batch of events via a continuous data stream and performs the serialization of data in the batch of events. In certain embodiments, the system identifies a first data type of a first attribute for each event in a batch of events and determines a first type of data compression to be performed on data values represented by the first attribute. The system determines a first type of data compression to be performed on data values represented by the first attribute based on the first data type of the first attribute. The system then generates a first set of serialized data values for the first attribute. The system processes the first set of serialized data values against a set of one or more continuous queries to generate a first set of output events.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to the field of retrieval and extraction for designing formulated products by constructed ingredient-functionality lists for formulated products using search engine result excerpts in an automated manner. Many ingredients used in formulated products are multi-functional. Conventionally, in a given category of formulated product, only a single functionality or subset of functionalities of an ingredient is used ignoring other functionalities of which the ingredient is representative. However, there is a need to put together representative ingredients before proceeding further with process steps of making and testing the formulated product. The present disclosure addresses unresolved problems of the conventional methods by obtaining information regarding the functionalities of ingredients used in formulated products using search engines based on a loop processing involving query formation, and construction of a list of ingredients and functionalities till exhaustion.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and processes for accepting and servicing interface agnostic validated unified platform queries. A request for shared data associated with web applications received from a user interface that is rendered by a client based on a specification is intercepted. The request is forwarded to a unified application programming interface (API) instead of a disparate unique API associated with the web applications. The request from the client is authenticated externally using the unified API and the request for the shared data is authorized to be displayed in the user interface based on the unified API instead of the specification.

Abstract: A sub-archive is initiated. The sub-archive saves changes that have occurred since a previous final archive. Changes to an operational database (i.e., the operational database that is being archived) are allowed during the first sub-archive.

Abstract: A system and method for maintaining a comprehensive catalog of metadata records that describes hierarchical file data held in one or more file systems includes a Modular Change Processor (MCP) that captures event notifications pertaining to contents of affected directories within the file systems, coalesces the translated event notifications, and transmits to the catalog, instructions to mark metadata corresponding to the affected directories as ‘out-of-sync’. An Enumerator Computer (EC) receives from the catalog, identities of directories having metadata marked ‘out-of-sync’; receives from the file systems, updated contents of the ‘out-of-sync’ directories; generates replacement metadata for the updated contents; and sends the replacement metadata to the catalog, optionally with instructions to replace the metadata marked ‘out-of-sync’ with corresponding replacement metadata and to mark the replacement metadata as ‘in-sync’.
