  • Patent number: 11847034
    Abstract: Techniques are describe herein for associating storage management properties with a group of files of a database referred to herein as a “file group”. In this system, storage management properties are defined at the database-level. Thus, multiple databases can be stored across a single disk group, gaining the benefits of having multiple block access devices working in parallel, but each respective database may be associated with a respective file group in a one-to-one relationship, so that each database can have different storage management properties.

  • Patent number: 11836148
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for implementing a data stream correlation user interface. The data stream correlation user interface enables users to view information from two sets of records, and identify fields in the two sets of records that can be matched together to “glue” together multiple records. For example, a user may specify that values in an “AcctID” field in one set of records can be matched to values in an “Account_ID” field of a second set of records. Additional identifying fields may be selected, such that multiple values can be chained together. The system can match the records of multiple sets together using designated fields, enabling users to view how many records from one set have a corresponding record in another set.

  • Patent number: 11798113
    Abstract: Embodiments use electronic speech samples of detainees and automatically scan electronic speech sample databases to detect when a detainee has a criminal record and to alert controlled-environment facility personnel to that record. An electronic speech sample of the detainee is captured during booking or at another time. The electronic speech sample is compared to a database of electronic speech samples of individuals with criminal records. If the electronic speech sample matches an existing electronic speech sample in the database, then information associated with the matching electronic speech sample is provided to the controlled-environment facility personnel. The information is analyzed to identify key issues, such as active warrants. The controlled-environment facility personnel are alerted to any such key information.

  • Patent number: 11789911
    Abstract: A permissions management service may allow a large number of user to access database objects of a database service in a scalable manner. After a data owner on-boards a database of a database service with the permissions management service, the data owner may create a data catalog for a user or user group that indicates the database objects (e.g., tables, views) that are available for the user to request access to. A request from a user may be authenticated by the permissions management service using federation/single sign-on. The user may select database objects from a data catalog of objects that are available for the user to request access to. The permissions management service sends an access request to the database service, indicating the selected database objects. The database service may then grant to the user permission to access the selected objects (e.g., via grant commands).

  • Patent number: 11775543
    Abstract: A method for performing a parallelized heapsort operation may include updating, by a first worker thread, a first buffer while a second worker thread updates a second buffer in parallel. The first worker thread may update the first buffer by adding, to the first buffer, elements from a first partition of a dataset. The second worker thread may update the second buffer by adding, to the second buffer, elements from a second partition of the dataset. Upon the first buffer reaching a threshold size, the first worker thread may acquire a lock for the first worker thread to update a heap based on the first buffer while the second worker thread is prevented from updating the heap based on the second buffer. A result of a top k query comprising a k quantity of smallest elements from the dataset may be generated based on the heap.

  • Patent number: 11726992
    Abstract: Various embodiments relate generally to data science and data analysis, computer software and systems, and wired and wireless network communications to provide an interface between repositories of disparate datasets and computing machine-based entities that seek access to the datasets, and, more specifically, to a computing and data storage platform that facilitates consolidation of one or more datasets, whereby a collaborative data layer and associated logic facilitate, for example, efficient access to, and implementation of, collaborative datasets. In some examples, a method may include receiving data representing a query of a consolidated dataset that may include datasets formatted atomized datasets, analyzing the query to classify portions of the query to form classified query portions, partitioning the query into sub-queries as a function of a classification type for each of the classified query portions, and retrieving data representing a query result from distributed data repositories.
