Abstract: An XML fragmenting mechanism uses an XML schema for the XML file to split up the XML file in a hierarchal structure of data blocks for storage in a storage system with a limited block size such as a cluster coordination service. The XML fragmenting mechanism creates an XML file map to document the structure of the XML file in the storage system. The XML fragmenting mechanism stores the data blocks in the storage system according to the XML file map and supports retrieval of all or part of the data in a format that supports XML validation.

Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The method computer program products, and systems can include, for instance: receiving, by a production database, a query statement for processing by the production database; the production database in performing runtime execution processing of the query statement identifying one or more query statement value of the query statement; the production database in performing runtime execution processing of the query statement establishing, using a predictive model, an access path based on the identified one or more query statement value; and the production database using the established access path in performing runtime execution processing of the query statement.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus, and non-transitory media are described for governing resources used to execute and retrieve database entries in accordance with an ad-hoc structured query language (SQL) script. Various aspects are described to determine whether a written SQL script is optimized, to execute the SQL script if it is optimized, and to otherwise reject unoptimized SQL scripts. The resources used during the execution of the SQL script may further be monitored to control resource use, and the execution of SQL scripts may be ceased if a processor-based resource limit threshold is exceeded. The SQL script execution system may be implemented in a wide variety of systems, such as database servers. The scripts may be executed in conjunction with scrubbing and encryption scripts to protect sensitive data, and thus the SQL scripts may be received via one or more public APIs.

Abstract: A system and method for improving storage system performance by reducing or avoiding load spike amplification when performing garbage collection is disclosed. A storage controller in a storage system tracks system load including write load and read load, as well as available free segments. The storage controller uses these tracked values as inputs and, with these inputs, generates a garbage collection rate. Where read load is included, a scaled portion of the read load is taken into consideration so that, as the number of free segments nears the minimum amount desired and to prevent garbage collecting too slowly, the read load is gradually excluded from the garbage collection rate determination. The garbage collection rate is therefore responsive to system load so that, in times of high system load, the rate reduces as much as is safe so that the write load takes priority with computing resources of the storage controller.

Abstract: A sequence object manager provides a sequence object with a dynamic cache block size that indicates a block size of values to be added to the sequence object when the cache values are exhausted. The dynamic block size allows the sequence object manager to optimize performance and storage space depending on applications using the sequence object. The dynamically block size is set and maintained by the sequence object manager based on observed performance and historical trends of the applications. A seed value may be provided by the user to initially set the dynamic block size.

Abstract: Methods, caches, database systems and computer program products for processing database requests and retrieving results from the cache of a database system. The cache stores a representation of a data space of one or more databases of the database system, including one or more results for any database request for which the data space is able to output a result. In response to receiving a database request from a client, the cache determines by utilizing the stored representation whether the data space is able to output one or more results for the database request. If affirmative, one or more results are returned to the client from the representation of the cache. Otherwise, the cache returns an invalidity notification.

Abstract: An entries array having a pre-selected number of initially empty buckets and structured as a circular array is maintained. Each of the pre-selected number of entries in the entries array has a corresponding index value. A chaining array having the pre-selected number of buckets and structured as a circular array is also maintained. Each of the pre-selected number of entries in the chaining array has the same corresponding index value as the corresponding bucket in the entries array. A hash operation is performed on data to be stored to determine a hash value corresponding to the data. The data is stored in a bucket in the entries array corresponding to the hash value as an unmovable head-of-chain entry, and moving previous data, if any, stored in the entries array corresponding to the hash value if the previous data has a different hash value. The data is stored in another bucket in the entries array if the bucket in the entries array corresponding to the hash value is occupied by a head-of-chain entry.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for propagating source identification information from an application front-end system in an application layer to a data layer inspection system associated with a back-end system. An incoming user request is received, at the data layer inspection system, from a gateway system associated with the application front-end system. One or more outgoing statements targeting a back-end system are received at the data layer inspection system. The data layer inspection system accesses a mapping data structure based on the one or more outgoing statements to thereby correlate the one or more outgoing statements with the incoming user request. The data layer inspection system retrieves source identification information associated with the incoming user request based on the correlation of the one or more outgoing statements with the incoming user request. The data layer inspection system performs a data layer inspection operation based on the source identification information.

Abstract: Some examples include detecting that a source computing device is in proximity to a target computing device. For instance, a user credential of the source computing device may be received from the source computing device. Further, a copy of system data of the source computing device may be retrieved from a cloud storage service. A system state of the source computing device may be restored on the target computing device by using the user credential received from the source computing device and the copy of the system data of the source computing device retrieved from the cloud storage. In some cases, the user credential may expire on the target computing device after a predetermined system event in the target computing device.
