Patent number: 11928130Abstract: Various embodiments for a data management system for managing inferences are described herein. An embodiment operates by detecting a signal to perform a replication task. Parameters corresponding to the replication task are identified. The replication task is configured to at least partially replicate a source data table from a source repository to a target data table in a target repository, based on the parameters. It is determined that a columnar structure of a first column of the source data table including data to be replicated matches a columnar structure of a second column of the target data table where the data is to be replicated to. The replication task is executed responsive to the determination of the matching structures, the replication task including performing one or more arithmetic operations on the data.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2023Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: SAP SEInventor: Heshang Majmudar

Patent number: 11921734Abstract: A system includes several edge computing devices. Each edge computing device includes a a sensor, a memory, a central processing unit (CPU), and a digital communication interface, for communication across a network. Each edge computing device has a respective interpreting software function, arranged to execute on the CPU and to interpret computer code, received via the digital communication interface and stored in the memory, according to a query language having a predetermined syntax. The syntax defines queries the results of which are streams of data. A first software function poses a first query to a second edge computing device. A second software function generates and communicates, in response thereto, a second stream of data. The first software function preprocesses the second stream so that it adheres to a predefined global data ontology, and performs a first calculation using the second stream.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Stream Analyze Sweden ABInventor: Tore Risch

Patent number: 11914549Abstract: A cloud-native global file system used to provide primary file storage for enterprise data is augmented to provide “direct-to-cloud” (D2C) migration of an initial data set. In addition to providing a filer, the service provider configures a direct-to-cloud migration tool, typically as a downloadable virtual machine (VM), that is executed in association with the hardware of the enterprise filesystem whose data set is being migrated. The migration tool reads the existing filesystem, transforms the data into a format consistent with that done by a filer, and pushes the result (a single version) directly to an object store in the cloud. In a first pass (run), typically a large bulk of the data is moved and, depending on how the migration tool is configured, one or more additional passes may then be carried out. When migration is complete (or substantially complete), the filer then is activated to complete the migration (if need be) and take over the go-forward operations.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Nasuni CorporationInventors: David M. Shaw, Nicholas A. Fisher

Patent number: 11899721Abstract: Methods and systems are presented for detecting groups within a graph using computer-based multi-threading techniques. These techniques provide technical improvements in computing power and efficiency for analysis of large graphs. A group detection system accesses a graph. Threads are instantiated to perform task related to a group detection process based on the nodes in the graph, where a thread is instantiated for a corresponding node. Each thread determines a neighbor count representing a number of neighbor nodes having one degree of separation from the corresponding node. Each thread also generates a list comprising an identity of the corresponding node and identities of the neighbor nodes. The thread transmits the list only to threads corresponding to a first subset of the neighbor nodes having more neighbors than the corresponding node, but not to threads corresponding to a second subset of the neighbor nodes having less neighbors than the corresponding nodes.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2021Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: PayPal, Inc.Inventors: Zhenyu Qiao, Jie Huang, Jun Gu, Si Feng, Yunjing Dai
