  • Patent number: 11630838
    Abstract: Techniques for implementing conflict-free replicated data types in a database are described. A first database replica of a database hosted by a provider network receives an identifier of a first operation to perform on an element stored in the database, the element being of a conflict-free replicated data type. A second database replica of the database receives an identifier of a second operation to perform on the element. The second operation is determined to not conflict with the first operation. The first operation and the second operation are performed on the element stored by the first database replica. The first operation and the second operation are performed on the element stored by the second database replica.

  • Patent number: 11625418
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a solution is used to provide container volume replication via a container storage replication log and volume buffer synchronization, which is built on top of a container cloud platform whose container metadata and replication runtime configuration are all managed by a storage manager (a service orchestrated by its job scheduler and service orchestrator). This container volume replication ensures the data security for a long-running service in the container. In the case of any disaster, the in-memory database and application data inside of the container can be recovered via volume replication. This provides container volume replication for long-running containerized applications whose states keep changing.

  • Patent number: 11599523
    Abstract: A system is provided for computing system configuration file state identification using decentralized multidimensional snapshots. In particular, the system may generate multiple configuration file and/or system state snapshots from various different computing systems within the network environment. Accordingly, each snapshot taken may represent a unique perspective or dimension of the configuration files and/or system states based on the computing system that is executing the snapshot, and/or the time interval at which the snapshot is executed. Based on the snapshots, the system may use data analytics to compare the snapshots against one another to establish a baseline configuration file and/or system state such that deviations from the baseline may be subsequently detected. In this way, the system provides an effective way to detect changes in configuration files and system states.

  • Patent number: 11580065
    Abstract: An Orchestrated Data Recovery (ODR) Cyber Protection Automation (CPA) operates to ensure one-to-one creation of snapsets of a production site and corresponding snapsets of a cyber vault. During an initiation phase, the ODR CPA monitors synchronization of a snapset of production volumes from the production site to the cyber vault. If additional snapsets of the production volumes are created prior to completion of synchronization of the first snapset, the additional snapsets are also synchronized to the cyber vault. Once the initial synchronization of the storage volumes has been completed, the ODR CPA causes a Storage Volume Creation and Management System (SVCMS) to create a snapset of the storage volumes at the cyber vault. Subsequently, each time a snapset is created of the production site, the ODR CPA orchestrates synchronization of the snapset to the cyber vault and creation of a corresponding snapset at the cyber vault.

  • Patent number: 11580144
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods of the present invention create a searchable index that includes informative portions of text. In an example, a computer-implemented method creates a discourse tree from a body of text. For each non-terminal node in the discourse tree, the method identifies a rhetorical relationship associated with the non-terminal node. The method labels each terminal node associated with the non-terminal node as either a nucleus or a satellite. The method further accesses a rule associated with the rhetorical relationship, and selects, based on the rule, selects the fragment associated with the nucleus. The method creates a searchable index including the selected fragments.

  • Patent number: 11573922
    Abstract: In one approach, a set of data blocks or files is tracked for changes between snapshots. This may be done by a file system filter running in kernel mode. The data blocks or files that are tagged as unchanged are not transferred to backup because there is no need to update since the last backup. Other data blocks and files may be first tested for change, for example by comparing digital fingerprints of the current data versus the previously backed up data, before transferring to backup.

  • Patent number: 11550959
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for rendering printed documents tamper evident. Examples render classes of documents tamper evident with cryptographic level security or detect tampering events, where such security was previously unavailable, for example, in documents printed using common printers without special paper or ink. Examples enable proving the date of document content without the need for expensive third party archival, including documents held, since their creation, entirely in secrecy or in untrustworthy environments, such as on easily-altered, publicly-accessible internet sites. Examples can use a document's prior registration date in a blockchain to establish a no-later than date-of-existence for that document. Examples can extend the useful life of integrity verification algorithms, such as hash functions, even when applied to binary executable files.

  • Patent number: 11537571
    Abstract: A request for performing a data storing operation directed to a database table that comprises a plurality of table columns is received. Columnar compression metadata is accessed to identify one or more table columns in the database table, each of the one or more table columns being designated to store compressed columnar values. The columnar compression metadata is used to apply one or more columnar compression methods to generate, from one or more uncompressed columnar values received with the request for the data storing operation, one or more compressed columnar values to be persisted in the one or more table columns in the database table. A database statement is executed to persist the one or more compressed columnar values in the one or more table columns in the database table.
