Abstract: A method and system for storing an object in a distributed storage system are provided. An example system includes an object name identifier that receives a request to save an object having an initial object name within a file system space and determines, based on a set of regular expressions, whether the initial object name is a temporary object name. The example system also includes a converter that, when the initial object name is determined to be a temporary object name, transforms, based on the set of regular expressions, the initial object name into a permanent object name. The example system further includes a selector that applies a function to the permanent object name and selects, based on a result of the function applied to the permanent object name, a server of a plurality of servers. The object is sent to the selected server for storage.

Abstract: Various implementations described herein are directed to a non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a computer, may cause the computer to receive a location, a date, a wind direction, a water temperature, a species, or combinations thereof.

Abstract: A sorter receives a list of elements to be sorted. An element of the list is supplied to a selected one of a plurality of processing units to be processed. The selected one of the processing units sends the element to one of a plurality of list element cells, which rank orders the elements among other elements in the same list element storage as well as storing the position of each element from the original list. Each of the plurality of list element cells processes and stores a different range of element values. The element being processed is stored in sorted order in the list element cell that has an element value range that encompasses the value of the element of the list.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a social-oriented computer system for matching daters. Daters establish friend connections with other users, including non-daters. After identifying candidate pairings of daters, the system solicits the opinions of users including the daters, their friends, and matchmakers. The system may analyze the opinions to determine whether a match would result in the satisfaction of both daters. If so, the system matches the daters, inviting them to communicate. The system may gather feedback on the match to help calibrate future matching.

Abstract: A collaboration tool includes a collaborative database consistency system that includes a host service to receive user input and, in particular, a selection of data to monitor. The host service is coupled to an upstream dependency traverser service configured to generate a dependency tree identifying all tables upon which the selected data to monitor depends, at least in part. A unit test service receives the dependency tree as input and automatically generates suitable pass/fail tests for each table identified in the dependency tree. Thereafter, the unit test service can execute each generated pass/fail test to determine whether the data to monitor is valid.

Abstract: A database system includes an original data source storing pieces of original data and a cache source storing pieces of cached data, each associated with an accuracy value. A method of processing queries in the system includes: for each randomly selected client query, retrieving a first piece of cached data matching the query, and retrieving a first piece of original data matching the query; for non-selected client queries, retrieving a second piece of cached data matching the query; evaluating the accuracy value of the second piece of cached data; if the accuracy value is below a given threshold, retrieving a second piece of original data matching the query, and updating the second piece of cached data by the second piece of original data; and adapting a probabilistic model based on the first piece of cached data and the first piece of original data using a machine learning algorithm.

Abstract: Computer systems and methods for constructing and using a virtual index server. The index of the virtual index server may specify locations of respective portions of data at a plurality of remote storage providers. The index may graft multiple files and folders from multiple storage providers together into a single hierarchical index tree. The virtual index server may be automatically updated to reflect changes in data content at the plurality of remote storage providers. The computer system may automatically retrieve log files from a content delivery network (CDN), normalize the log files according to a first analytics provider, and automatically provide the normalized log files to the first analytics provider.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for incremental snapshot copy to an object store. A list of deallocated block numbers of primary storage of a computing device are identified. Entries for the list of deallocated block numbers are removed from a mapping metafile. A list of changed block numbers corresponding to changes between a current snapshot of the primary storage and a prior copied snapshot copied from the primary storage to the object store is determined. The mapping metafile is evaluated using the list of changed block numbers to identify a deduplicated set of changed block numbers without entries within the mapping metafile. An object, comprising data of the deduplicated set of changed block numbers, is transmitted to the object store for storage as a new copied snapshot.
