Abstract: An incremental search user interface is implemented to reduce search requests from a client system to a server system. In one aspect, a result list is cached in a memory of the client system, where the result list corresponds to a search request from the client system to the server system. In another aspect, a check is repeatedly performed, in a predetermined time interval, to determine whether an input keystroke is received. Upon confirming the receiving of an input keystroke, based on a partial query and the cached result list, determine whether a search request to the server is unnecessary.

Abstract: System and method for producing tree perspectives of a plurality of storage systems using storage system descriptors and a set of search rules. The system and method herein provide an easy way to locate and identify specific storage systems. The storage system descriptors comprise external storage system metadata (referred to herein as “external metadata”) and/or internal storage system attributes (referred to herein as “internal attributes”) that describe the storage systems. The set of search rules comprises one or more metadata search rules and/or one or more attribute search rules. The set of search rules may be applied to the external metadata and/or internal attributes to determine a set of one or more matching storage systems. A tree perspective may be produced that represents the set of matching storage systems. The tree perspective may display the hierarchal organization of the set of matching storage systems through a hierarchical tree structure.

Abstract: In one aspect, a Universe designed and built in a database is used for modeling data in an in-memory database. The Universe is loaded in a front-end development application to display a universe schema contained in the Universe. The logic built in the front-end development application enables parsing the universe schema, to determine patterns matching in-memory views such as attribute views and analytic views. The determined patterns are generated as attribute views and analytic views, and displayed for user selection. Selected attribute views and analytic views are stored in the in-memory database.

Abstract: Database elements are inserted into a database object by processing each of a plurality of operations in a sequential order within a first processing round to insert the database elements into the database objects, where processing for at least one operation in the order becomes suspended due to a resource request, and where at least one successive operation is initiated in response to suspension of one or more prior operations to enable prefetching of information for processing the operations. Each suspended operation is re-processed with the prefetched information in one or more additional processing rounds until processing of the operations is completed.

Abstract: An items manager can request and receive data items from a data source via a data source adapter. The items manager can also maintain a list of data representation items representing data items. The data representation items can include user interface elements. Also, maintaining the list can include invoking a renderer to render the data representation items from the data items received from the data source, and including the data representation items in the list. The items manager can provide a client with an enumeration through the list of data representation items. The items manager may also provide other features, such as providing the client with notifications of changes to the list of data representation items.

Abstract: A computer readable storage medium includes executable instructions to store load data in new rows of an append only table within a data warehouse, without updating or deleting existing rows in the append only table. The new rows are added in a database transaction that guarantees that the distributed reads and writes of all transactions are processed reliably and that the transactions obey snapshot isolation rules. Data changes associated with the load data are maintained in a separate update table. Data from the append only table is merged with data changes from the update table to supply read data.

Abstract: A query analysis tool determines whether a list of columns within a database is accessed by a query without running the query against the database. Instead of using the database, the query is sent to a query analysis tool that uses a list of columns of interest to resolve ambiguity in the query and then determine if the query potentially accesses the list of columns of interest. If the ambiguity cannot be resolved, then the ambiguous part of the query is determined to not access any of the columns from the list of columns.
