  • Patent number: 11947597
    Abstract: A computer search service can receive an enterprise graph query from a client computing device that is remote from the computer search service, with the enterprise graph query identifying an actor object set, a target object set, and a relationship between the actor object set and the target object set. The search service can return results of the enterprise graph query to the client device. The search service can receive from the client device an indication of user input instructing the search service to persist the enterprise graph query, with the indication of user input also instructing the search service to associate the persisted enterprise graph query with an entity. Moreover, in response to receiving the indication of user input, the search service can persist the enterprise graph query as well as associate the persisted enterprise graph query with the entity and/or enter a subscription entry for the query.

  • Patent number: 11704315
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for trimming large clusters of related records. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising receiving a set of clusters, each cluster in the clusters including a plurality of records. The method extracts an oversized cluster in the set of clusters and performs a breadth-first search (BFS) on the oversized cluster to generate a list of visited records. The method terminates the BFS upon determining that the size of the list of visited records exceeds a maximum size and generates a new cluster from the list of visited records and adding the new cluster to the set of clusters. By recursively performing BFS traverse over the oversized cluster and extracting smaller new clusters from it, the oversized cluster is eventually partitioned into a set of sub-clusters with the size smaller than the predefined threshold.
