This flexibility can allow the use of hybrid tables in data lake or other similar environments.

Abstract: A distributed database compaction system can perform compaction for transactional queries in an asynchronous matter without affecting completion of the queries. The compaction system can implement asynchronous transformation of key pairs in the database, and older keys can be periodically purged using a scheduled compactor. Subsequent queries use the compacted stored keys to perform efficient queries with direct reads of committed transactions and more efficient access to key values stores of the distributed database.

Abstract: Illustrative storage manager and media agent are enhanced to interoperate with deduplication appliances. Advantages are realized when making secondary and tertiary copies and also when restoring from a deduplication appliance. Tiered indexing minimizes how much data is retained and stored at media agents. Tiered indexing enables media agents to efficiently extract needed information from deduplication appliances to make tertiary copies and to restore backed up copies. Interoperability techniques include media agents generating separate data streams to the deduplication appliance. Each data stream carries a different kind of data, e.g., payload data, metadata content, or high-level index information. On initial backup, the media agent instructs the deduplication appliance to deduplicate the payload data stream but not the other data streams, thus intelligently applying resources to data most likely to benefit from deduplication.

Abstract: In an approach for classifying and storing multiple layers of a file system as platform-dependent and platform-independent layers, a processor generates an initial layer of a file system. The initial layer is a platform-dependent base layer. A processor assigns one or more files associated with the initial layer with a first group identification as a first same group in a file registry for a plurality of platforms. A processor generates a new layer based on the initial layer into the file system. A processor, in response to the new layer being platform-independent, marks the new layer as platform-independent in the file registry. A processor pushes the new layer into the file registry for one of the plurality of platforms. A processor distributes one or more corresponding files from the file registry per a client request to access the file system.

Abstract: In some embodiments, during synchronizing of files in a source data set to a destination data set, a method receives a set of events that occurred at the source data set after replicating an image of the source data set to the destination data set. The method analyzes the set of events to determine if an exception to a first set of rules for performing a set of operators on the destination data set for the set of events occurs. A second set of rules for the exception is selected based on analyzing the set of events. The method processes the set of operators for the set of events according to the second set of rules to synchronize data from the first data set to the second data set based on the set of events. The processing of the set of operators uses the second set of rules.

Abstract: Distributed ledgered data is stored within a distributed persistent storage system comprising multiple persistent storage systems as distributed ledgered participants. In various embodiments, the distributed ledgered data is maintained using the native capabilities of a persistent storage system. The distributed ledgered data is replicated as persistent data objects in a “ledgered repository of objects” that are replicated at each of the persistent storage systems. Changes at one persistent storage system are recorded within a block in a distributed blockchain that is distributed across each of the other distributed ledgered participants. The other distributed ledgered participants read the changes from the blockchain and apply the changes to the respective replicas at each of the other distributed ledgered participants. Hence, this approach is referred to as blockchain apply. Blockchain apply may be used to replicate the repository objects of various forms of PSSs.

Abstract: A system and method for efficiently storing data in a storage system. A data storage subsystem includes multiple data storage locations on multiple storage devices in addition to at least one mapping table. A data storage controller determines whether data to store in the storage subsystem has one or more patterns of data intermingled with non-pattern data within an allocated block. Rather than store the one or more pattern on the storage devices, the controller stores information in a header on the storage devices. The information includes at least an offset for the first instance of a pattern, a pattern length, and an identification of the pattern. The data may be reconstructed for a corresponding read request from the information stored in the header.

The service may support a method for data processing that includes determining that a plurality of tenants of a multitenant database system correspond to a common entity, where each tenant is associated with a respective instance of a cloud platform that services data from a corresponding database instance. The method may further include provisioning a new database instance for the common entity, generating a connector that is configured to access data of the corresponding database instance, generating a schema for the new database instance that aggregates the data of each database instance accessed by the connector, and instantiating a new cloud platform instance that is configured to access the schema of the new database instance, where the new cloud platform instance is configured to serve data queried from the schema of the new database instance via a client application.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for automated population of responses into query fields of a form are discussed. The responses are based on data in a networked user data repository maintained by a first party, and the form is presented by a second party. A login request for access to data in the user data repository may be received from a remote computing device. If access to the data in the user data repository is authorized, descriptors for at least one of the query fields may be received, and based on the descriptors, it may be determined whether any responses to any query fields are contained in the user data repository. Query fields may be populated with responses obtained through the data repository. The user provides the second party with information that is made available to the first party without separately inputting the information into the form of the second party.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a computer obtains a mapping of a relational schema of a database to a graph data model. The relational schema identifies vertex table(s) that correspond to vertex type(s) in the graph data model and edge table(s) that correspond to edge type(s) in the graph data model. Each edge type is associated with a source vertex type and a target vertex type. Based on that mapping, a forward compressed sparse row (CSR) representation is populated for forward traversal of edges of a same edge type. Each edge originates at a source vertex and terminates at a target vertex. Based on the forward CSR representation, a reverse CSR representation of the edge type is populated for reverse traversal of the edges of the edge type. Acceleration occurs in two ways. Values calculated for the forward CSR are reused for the reverse CSR. Elastic and inelastic scaling may occur.
