  • Patent number: 11651281
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for generating an enhanced feature catalog for a predictive model. The embodiments disclosed herein include capturing predictive model design time information including training data lineage metadata to determine the features of the training data, model design time measurements, and model design time metadata. Once the predictive model is built, the training data lineage metadata is used to capture the features that will be maintained within a feature catalog. The model design time measurements and model design time metadata provide further correlation between the predictive model and the features. Runtime metrics on the predictive model create additional correlations between the captured data and metadata with the features in the feature catalog to expeditiously identify the relevant features of the predictive model.

  • Patent number: 11573782
    Abstract: A system includes a server comprising a memory and a processor, where the processor is in communication with the memory. The processor is configured to download, by the updating agent, a second version of source files associated with a second version of the updating agent, where the second version of source files are stored separately from the first version of the source files, where the second version of the updating agent is operable to update a second set of libraries of the application. Next, the updating agent overwrites the first version of the source files with the second version of the source files. The updating agent then re-starts the updating agent with an update parameter designating a location of the downloaded second version of the source files, wherein the third version of the source files are executed to re-start the updating agent.

  • Patent number: 11561784
    Abstract: Computing systems, for example, multi-tenant systems deploy software artifacts in data centers created in a cloud platform using a cloud platform infrastructure language that is cloud platform independent. The system receives pipeline templates including templating expressions that can be substituted with values for generating pipelines. A pipeline can be executed to perform a set of actions associated with continuous delivery of a software artifact. The system stores sets of partially hydrated pipeline templates. The partially hydrated pipeline templates can be compiled into executable pipelines associated with services configured on a datacenter of a cloud platform. The system stores different versions of pipeline templates as deployment packages. The system stores version pointers that identify specific deployment packages that are selected when a software release is deployed. The version pointers allow the deployment package to be updated in case of roll back or for deploying more recent changes.
