  • Patent number: 11803550
    Abstract: Techniques and solutions are described that can be used to determine data subsets of a data set that may be responsive to a query. In one aspect, imprints are created for the data subsets, where an imprint indicates whether, for a plurality of bins, a data subset contains values within respective bins. The bins are defined at least in part using data for a set of queries. In another aspect, at least one bin of a plurality of bins is designated to be associated with values of the data set satisfying a threshold frequency. In a further aspect, imprints are created for a plurality of bins, where an imprint indicates whether the plurality of data subsets comprise a value for a given bin. A query imprint can be compared with the data subset imprints or bin imprints to determine data subsets that may be responsive to an associated query.

  • Patent number: 11782889
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to continuous data profiling (CDP). Entities may house large amounts of disorganized and/or duplicative data. To organize and standardize data across a data set, the data may be profiled. However, profiling large data set can be inefficient and give rise to security problems, as profiling datasets typically requires exporting a dataset to a third-party profiling runtime environment. To remedy these issues, the present disclosure is directed to a continuous data profiling platform that comprises a CDP manager communicatively coupled to a client's database. The CDP manager provides access to a CDP API that may install CDP tools on a client's native database environment, enabling the database management system to profile datasets within the client's native database environment, which results in a more efficient use of computing resources and more secure process of profiling datasets.

  • Patent number: 11776575
    Abstract: Systems, device and techniques are disclosed for receiving a request from a user to add a media item to a playlist at a certain playlist position where the media items in the playlist are provided to other users in a media group. Based on a determination that the requesting user has rights to the requested media item, the requested media item may be added to the playlist at the position. When the playlist reaches the position, the user that added the media item to the playlist may be provided with a first version of the media item and the other users in the group may be provided with a second version of the media item. If the user that requested the item to be added to the playlist is determined not to have rights to the media item, the item is added to a position different than the requested position.

  • Patent number: 11775496
    Abstract: Various embodiments for providing a data transfer and management system are described herein. An embodiment operates by determining that data of a column is stored in a column loadable format in which all of the data of the column is moved from the disk storage location to a memory responsive to a data request. A data vector that identifies a plurality of value IDs corresponding to at least a subset of the plurality of rows of the column, is identified. A page format that provides that a portion of the data of the column across a subset of the plurality of rows is moved from the second disk storage location into the memory responsive to the data request is determined. The entries of the data vector are requested, converted from column loadable format into the page persistent format, and stored across one or more memory pages.

  • Patent number: 11778056
    Abstract: A batch of CRUD operations can be coupled with the resource discovery operation and directly conducted on the matched resources, without initiating new CRUD requests. New functionality at the Originator and Receiver can differentiate the resources for which criteria matching is applied from the resources included in the discovery/filtering results. Enhanced functionality at the Originator and Receiver can combine discovery with RESTful operations targeting a resource set different than but related the discovered resources. Other enhancements may be used to request discovery of resources in a specified relationship to those matching a filter, or to request group formation based on the result.

  • Patent number: 11775489
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium for consolidating multiple databases into a single or a smaller number of databases is described. An improved structure of target database may be achieved by removing constraints used when creating legacy databases. According to some aspects, these and other benefits may be achieved by combining multiple source tables into a single target table with errors being identified and addressed during the creation of the instructions to generate the target table. In implementation, this may be effected by converting values from a source table and values from a target table into normalized versions of those values and then comparing the normalized values. A benefit includes verifying that the data from the source table is being properly reflected in the target table.
