Abstract: A container is a collection of schemas, objects, and related structures in a multitenant container database (CDB) that appears logically to an application as a separate database. Within a CDB, each container has a unique ID and name. The root database and every PDB is considered a container. PDBs isolate data and operations so that from the perspective of a user or application, each PDB appears as if it were a traditional non-CDB. A database management system that manages a container database is a container database management system (CDBMS). Data and metadata in the root database may include common schemas that make the functionality that users will often use available CDB-wide. To execute a query accessing a common schema, the common schemas may be accessed by sessions of a PDB without switching database contexts.

Abstract: Provided is a process of discovering psychographic segments of consumers with unsupervised machine learning, the process including: obtaining a first set of consumer-behavior records; converting the first set of consumer-behavior records into respective consumer-behavior vectors; determining psychographic segments of consumers by training an unsupervised machine learning model with the first set of consumer-behavior vectors; obtaining a second set of consumer-behavior records after determining the psychographic segments of consumers; converting the second set of consumer-behavior records into respective consumer-behavior vectors; classifying the second set of consumer-behavior vectors as each belonging to at least a respective one of psychographic segments with the trained machine learning model; and predicting based on the classification a likelihood of the respective consumer engaging in behavior associated with a corresponding one of the psychographic segments.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer storage media are disclosed. A computer storage medium includes instructions that, when executed, perform actions including maintaining a first view based on a first table of a database. The actions include performing a first transaction within the database. The actions include performing a second transaction within the database, and the second transaction relies on data from the first view. Performing the second transaction includes beginning the second transaction. In response to occurrence of both (i) the first transaction committing a first modification to the first table subsequent to the beginning of the second transaction and (ii) the second transaction causing a modification to the first view based on the first modification, performing the second transaction includes continuing the second transaction based on the data from the first view excluding the modification to the first view and completing the second transaction.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program receives a set of metadata associated with a web page provided by an application. The set of metadata includes a first attribute value in a first hierarchy of attributes and a second attribute value in a second hierarchy of attributes. The method further determines a set of boost values based on the set of metadata, the first hierarchy, and the second hierarchy. The method also generates a query for documents associated with the web page based on the set of boost values. The method further executes the query in order to generate a result set of document associated with the web page.

Abstract: In a preferred embodiment, a system for securely delivering source data to a destination system over a network includes a data manager system operatively connected to the network, where the data manager system includes circuitry configured to receive a public key from the destination system, generate a random session key, encrypt the session key with the public key using a public key cryptosystem, divide the source data into a number of chunks, compress each of the chunks, merge all of the compressed chunks into an assembled file, encrypt the assembled file with the session key using a symmetric-key cryptosystem, divide the encrypted assembled file into a number of parts, send each of the parts to the destination system over the network, and send the encrypted session key to the destination system over the network.

Abstract: A linear tape file system (LTFS) maintains a series of indexes, and an incremental change dataset, that records incremental changes that have taken place in each new index over the previous one, as each new index of the series is created. Upon receiving a command to roll back the file system from a current generation to a target previous generation, a generation control module applies information in the incremental change dataset to the current index. In this way, the current index is restored, at least functionally, to the state it was in when the target generation was created, thereby effectuating the rollback of the file system to the target generation.

Abstract: Graph databases directly relate data items in the data store with edges that represent relationships between the data items. The relationships link the data items together and often permit complex sets of related data items to be retrieved with a single operation. New query systems and techniques for graph databases provide prediction of non-explicit connections between data items that further enhances the efficiency and utility of graph databases, as well as extend their industrial applications.

Abstract: Aspects include a method for generating an initial ranking of a plurality of discovered keywords, in which the initial ranking is based on confidence levels. The method includes presenting the initial ranking to a user as a list that includes the plurality of discovered keywords. The method includes, in response to receiving a text string as a first input from the user, filtering the list of discovered keywords to generate a refined list of discovered keywords. The filtering includes searching the list of discovered keywords to rank keywords that match the input string using a fuzzy search. The method includes mapping a discovered keyword of the refined list to a business term using a fuzzy search. The method includes updating the initial ranking based on the mapping of the discovered keyword.
