Abstract: A database management system configured to perform a computer-implemented method is provided. The method involves operating a database management system with two sets of nodes. The first set of nodes is responsible for maintaining system configuration data using a consensus-based replication protocol, while the second set of nodes stores user data and replicates it using a non-consensus-based protocol.

This includes writing an indication of a target configuration for the second set of nodes to the system configuration data. The second set of nodes then modifies its configuration according to this data.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards real time display of event records and extracted values based on at least one extraction rule, such as a regular expression. A user interface may be employed to enable a user to have an extraction rule automatically generate and/or to manually enter an extraction rule. The user may be enabled to manually edit a previously provided extraction rule, which may result in real time display of updated extracted values. The extraction rule may be utilized to extract values from each of a plurality of records, including event records of unstructured machine data. Statistics may be determined for each unique extracted value, and may be displayed to the user in real time. The user interface may also enable the user to select at least one unique extracted value to display those event records that include an extracted value that matches the selected value.

Abstract: A system and method for distributed node-based data compaction. The system uses machine learning on data chunks to generate codebooks which compact the data to be stored, processed, or sent with a smaller data profile than uncompacted data. The system uses a data compaction in an existing blockchain fork or implemented in a new blockchain protocol from which nodes that wish to or need to use the blockchain can do so with a reduced storage requirement. The system uses network data compaction across all nodes to increase the speed of and decrease the size of a blockchain's data packets. The system uses data compaction firmware to increase the efficiency at which mining rigs can computationally validate new blocks on the blockchain. The system can be implemented using any combination of the three data compaction services to meet the needs of the desired blockchain technology.

Abstract: A pipeline performs automated generation of database queries for a database and corresponding questions comprising natural language text. The pipeline generates database query templates based at least partly on a schema of the database and populates the query templates based on values identified from the records sampled from the database to generate valid database queries. The pipeline then generates abstract representations of each of the generated database queries and, for each abstracted database query, prompts a language model to generate a corresponding question in natural language. The pipeline prompts another language model to evaluate similarity of each abstracted database query and corresponding natural language question. The natural language questions and database queries associated with the corresponding abstractions that are sufficiently similar are provided for use.

Abstract: A system and method generate a dynamic and query adaptive Bloom filter for optimal joining of tables such as large tables in distributed data processing systems. A Bloom filter is dynamically constructed and tuned based on historical query patterns including frequency and selectivity. Metrics are collected from execution of an Adaptive Query Execution (AQE) based execution plan and execution of a Bloom filter-based execution plan generated from the constructed and tuned Bloom filter. A score measuring performance of the execution plans is generated from the metrics of each of the execution plans. The execution plan with a greater score is selected to optimally join the tables. The method implements the system.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data management are described. A first application in a destination computing environment of a data management system (DMS) may determine that a bulk-push criterion is satisfied for a second application in a source computing environment of the DMS. The first application may transmit, to an asynchronous metadata service, a request indicating the second application for which the bulk-push criterion is satisfied. The request may be configured to cause the asynchronous metadata service to query a database in the source computing environment, identify a latest version of one or more rows that include metadata associated with the second application, and generate data records indicating the latest version of the one or more rows that include the metadata associated with the second application. The first application may receive the data records via an asynchronous data stream between the first application and the second application.
