  • Patent number: 11693549
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosure for a data enrichment system that enables declarative external data source importation and exportation. A user can specify via a user interface input for identifying different data sources from which to obtain input data. The data enrichment system is configured to import and export various types of sources storing resources such as URL-based resources and HDFS-based resources for high-speed bi-directional metadata and data interchange. Connection metadata (e.g., credentials, access paths, etc.) can be managed by the data enrichment system in a declarative format for managing and visualizing the connection metadata.

  • Patent number: 11693846
    Abstract: A technique for verifying data structure consistency across computing environments includes computing a first signature for a data structure of an application subject to checkpointing corresponding to a first computing environment residing on a first computer. A second signature for the data structure of the application corresponding to a second computing environment residing on a second computer is computed. The first and second signatures are compared to determine whether a change to the data structure exists. Responsive to a lack of change to the data structure based on the comparison, a mobility operation is enabled for the application between the first computer and the second computer.

  • Patent number: 11681720
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a first search term and a second search term and using the first search term to search a first system that associates the first search term with a plurality of people to retrieve a respective identifier for each of the plurality of people. The second search term and the plurality of identifiers are used to search a second system that associates the second search term with a second plurality of people. The second system returns a count of the number of people who are in both the first plurality of people and the second plurality of people but is prevented from associating the first search term with a person and from releasing the association between the second search term and the second plurality of people. The count is returned as the number of people who have both the first search term and the second search term.

  • Patent number: 11675845
    Abstract: A device may receive a merchant query including first merchant data associated with a first merchant. The first merchant data may be provided, as input, to a merchant matching model associated with a merchant data structure, the merchant matching model having been trained to determine a measure of confidence that input merchant data corresponds to an existing merchant in the merchant data structure. The device may receive, as output from the merchant matching model, a measure of confidence that the first merchant data corresponds to a second merchant, the second merchant being associated with second merchant data stored in the merchant data structure. The device may also determine, based on the measure of confidence, that the first merchant corresponds to the second merchant. Based on the determination, the device may obtain the second merchant data from the merchant data structure and perform an action based on the second merchant data.

  • Patent number: 11663159
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program code for policy-based enforcement in a data virtualization system is provided. Responsive to receiving a query, a computer identifies a virtual object among a set of connected objects that is represented by a set of data assets and their hierarchical relationships. The virtual object corresponds to a subset of the data assets. The computer identifies a subset of objects according to a cumulative transitive closure of the virtual object over the set of connected objects. The computer identifies a set of policies for the subset of objects. For each object in the subset of objects, the computer determines an intermediate decision according to set of policies, whereby a set of intermediate decisions is formed. The computer deterministically reconciles the set of intermediate decisions to generate a resolved decision. The computer provides access to the queried virtual objects based on the resolved decision.

  • Patent number: 11645269
    Abstract: Embodiments provide a computer-implemented method for automatic detection of an event from an enterprise application, comprising: initiating a CRUD action connector of an integration platform; providing a business object name to the action connector; randomly obtaining a sample record from the enterprise application; creating a dummy record in the enterprise application, wherein the dummy record has a dummy record ID and a first time range within which the dummy record is created; and searching for a first timestamp field in a business object schema to determine whether the first timestamp field is queryable, wherein the first timestamp field indicates when the dummy record is created. If the first timestamp field exists, and the first timestamp field is queryable, then a first event indicating creation of the dummy record is detectable; if the first timestamp field does not exist, then the first event is undetectable.
