  • Patent number: 12189691
    Abstract: A current set of context features for a database query that is associated with a string is identified. The database query includes a sequence of tokens of a database syntax, and the current set of context features includes words from the string and tokens from the database query. An inference record is selected from an inference store based on a comparison of the current set of context features to context features of inference records in the inference store. The database query is modified using a resolution of the inference record to obtain an inferred database query. The resolution includes one or more tokens of the database syntax. A search of a database is invoked using a query based on the inferred database query to obtain search results.

  • Patent number: 12189585
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention include techniques for providing a schema evolution on a live database system without an outage. A non-limiting example method includes initiating a schema change on a live database system. The schema change includes an attribute for a database object. A first application package having a user application that is dependent on the database object and that is bound with a release(deallocate) option is identified. Existing threads and new threads executing the first application package are routed to execute the first application package with a release(commit) option and the schema change on the live database system is completed. One or more additional threads concurrently executing one or more additional application packages remain executing with the release(deallocate) option.

  • Patent number: 12182156
    Abstract: An approach to implement an extract, transform and load system, a queue is provided for holding units of data between extraction and transformation. When units of data suffer a rate limit error in the load phase, they are requeued so they can be resubmitted for transformation. The contents of the queue are monitored and, if too many requeued units of data are detected in the queue, then this is taken as an indicator of an unacceptable number of rate limit errors and active pacing management is triggered. A retry schedule is defined for the requeued units of data. Extraction is temporarily halted to allow the requeued units of data to be retransformed without more units of data queuing up. Then, after the suspension is lifted, a pacing delay is inserted between subsequent extract events to avoid the same load phase bottleneck recurring.

  • Patent number: 12164518
    Abstract: Example solutions for performing federated graph queries use schemas and include: generating a logical graph using a query input and generating a physical plan using a query planning schema for double-nested loops, the outer loop for each permutation of data stores in a set of data stores, and the inner loop for each data store—ceasing when the logical graph has been fully consumed. A query cost is determined for each of the permutations, and a physical plan is selected based on the query cost, for example minimizing the query cost, and the query is executed based on the selected physical plan. The cost may be determined based on a weighted combination of factors such as freshness of the data, latency, power consumption, environmental impact (e.g., carbon footprint), energy efficiency, and network burden.
