Abstract: A technique for operating a file system in a NAS (network attached storage) cluster includes discovering, by a data node running in the NAS cluster, a LUN (Logical UNit) provisioned from block storage. The data node renders the LUN as a block device and creates a local volume, built on the block device. The data node then deploys the file system on the local volume. The file system, the local volume, the block device, and the LUN all have address spaces, and the address space of each corresponds one-to-one with the address space of each of the others. Write requests directed to addresses in the file system propagate to the LUN, where they effect writes at corresponding addresses in the LUN.

Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein create a graph of data within a data set, such as items within an electronic catalog. The nodes of the graph may represent data items, such as items within the electronic catalog. Links or edges can be created between nodes of the graph representative of a data-metric of interest. For example, links or edges can be created between nodes of the graph representative of co-access of items. A diversified page rank process can be performed with respect to a particular node in the graph. This process can use positive or negative bias toward specific attributes to dynamically re-weight edges before and/or during the walk.

Abstract: A method and system for improving a network search query is provided. The method includes executing a real time search with respect to a database associated with an Internet based search for specified digital information.

Abstract: Attaching a content file in a composition stream of a content file within a content authoring application is provided. When using a content authoring application to author a content file, aspects provide for enabling a user to enter a particular trigger input corresponding to an inline command for attaching a content file item to the content file being created or edited. In response to receiving an indication of the trigger input, an inline content attachment system listens for a subsequent text string input, which when received, is handled as search criteria for content file items that satisfy the search criteria. The system searches one or more data sources for content file items that satisfy the search criteria, and provides a scrollable list displaying search results. Upon selection of a content file item result from the list, the selected content file item is attached to the content file being authored.

Abstract: Described are methods, systems and computer readable media for simulated replay of data using a computer system.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a method to collect aggregate information or usage data quickly and efficiently with minimal lag. Additionally, the system can use this aggregate information internally for improved load balancing, better data placement, optimization, and enhanced debugging. The system can quickly look at aggregate information across a huge amount of data and drill down cheaply because the aggregate information is generated using existing processes. Aggregated statistics storage and collection may be built on top of an LSM tree used to store a persistent index for a cloud storage system. The statistics may also represent the result of an operation (e.g., max, min, sum, average) on selected parameter(s) or attribute(s) of stored data. Aggregate statistics values may be efficiently maintained during index merge and garbage collection processes or any other index management. As delta LSM trees are merged into a base LSM tree, the aggregates are updated in delta fashion.

Abstract: A synchronization system including a cache obtains data updates from a one or more databases and stores the data updates at a device facing database which includes a custom indexed change table. The custom indexed change table stores change tracking data from individual change tracking tables of the one or more databases. When a synchronization request is received from a device, the synchronization request is parsed to obtain a list of synchronization parameters which are used to generate an index key. The index key is used to determine if the data responsive to the synchronization request is cached within the synchronization system. Based on whether the data is cached within the synchronization system, the data is transmitted directly from the cache to the device or the data is fetched from the device facing database, stored on the cache and transmitted to the device in response to the synchronization request.

Abstract: A lock-free data structure may be used to provide concurrent access to a data retention index for a data store. Different processes may obtain keys to the data retention index from the lock-free data structure. The different processes may update entries in the data retention index corresponding to the keys to identify data objects to retain in the data store. The data retention index may be evaluated to determine data objects not identified in the data retention index and reclaim portions of the data store that store the determined data objects for storing other data.

Abstract: An overlay snap is generated by generating a snapshot of a logical storage volume, writing a data stream to the overlay snap, generating pointers indicating locations of new data written to the overlay snap, and generating null pointers for locations that do not have new data written to the overlay snap. The overlay snap comprises the pointers and the null pointers. The overlay snap may be applied to a volume to generate a current snapshot of the volume. The overlay snap may be used maintain write order fidelity during continuous data replication by creating a copy of a snapshot on a target storage device and writing new data to an overlay snap on the target storage device.
