Abstract: A process of drug shortage prediction includes defining a classifier and loading a listing of drug shortage events at different times in association with different drugs. Over different periods of time, transactions between nodes of the pharmaceutical supply chain are read on a data bus of a digital supply network computing platform, each indicating a receipt of a particular drug by a particular dispensary. Drug shortage events are then correlated with ones of the transactions at a specified duration of time preceding the drug shortage events. Consequently, the classifier can be trained with the correlated transactions annotated as giving rise to the drug shortage events. Finally, the classifier receives queries with newly observed transactions on the data bus and, in response, a likelihood is determined that a drug shortage event for a specific one of the drugs will occur at the specified duration of time following the newly observed transactions.

Abstract: A version control interface for data provides a layer of abstraction that permits multiple readers and writers to access data lakes concurrently. An overlay file system, based on a data structure such as a tree, is used on top of one or more underlying storage instances to implement the interface. Each tree node tree is identified and accessed by means of any universally unique identifiers. Copy-on-write with the tree data structure implements snapshots of the overlay file system. The snapshots support a long-lived master branch, with point-in-time snapshots of its history, and one or more short-lived private branches. As data objects are written to the data lake, the private branch corresponding to a writer is updated. The private branches are merged back into the master branch using any merging logic, and conflict resolution policies are implemented. Readers read from the updated master branch or from any of the private branches.

Abstract: A version control interface provides for time travel with metadata management under a common transaction domain as the data. Examples generate a time-series of master branch snapshots for data objects stored in a data lake, with the snapshot comprising a tree data structure such as a hash tree and associated with a time indication. Readers select a master branch snapshot from the time-series, based on selection criteria (e.g., time) and use references in the selected master branch snapshot to read data objects from the data lake. This provides readers with a view of the data as of a specified time.

Abstract: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include a file system process obtaining locks on a first node and a second node in a tree structure, with the second node being a child node of the first node. The file system process determines a quantity of child nodes of the second. While holding the locks on the first and second nodes, the file system determines whether to proactively split or merge the second node. In response to determining that the quantity of child nodes is within a first range, the file system process splits the second node. If the file system process determines that the quantity of child nodes is within a second range, the file system process merges the second node.

Abstract: A version control interface provides for accessing a data lake with transactional semantics. Examples generate a plurality of tables for data objects stored in the data lake. The tables each comprise a set of name fields and map a space of columns or rows to a set of the data objects. Transactions read and write data objects and may span a plurality of tables with properties of atomicity, consistency, isolation, durability (ACID). Performing the transaction comprises: accumulating transaction-incomplete messages, indicating that the transaction is incomplete, until a transaction-complete message is received, indicating that the transaction is complete. Upon this occurring, a master branch is updated to reference the data objects according to the transaction-incomplete messages and the transaction-complete message. Tables may be grouped into data groups that provide atomicity boundaries so that different groups may be served by different master branches, thereby improving the speed of master branch updates.

Abstract: A technique improves storage efficiency of an object store configured to maintain numerous snapshots for long-term storage in an archival storage system by efficiently determining data that is exclusively owned by an expiring snapshot to allow deletion of the expiring snapshot from the object store. The technique involves managing index data structures to enable efficient garbage collection across a very large number of data objects. When a snapshot expires, the technique obviates the need to scan the numerous snapshot data objects to determine which index structures are no longer needed and can be reclaimed (garbage collected). The technique is directed to management of underlying storage based on different sets of policies. When certain snapshots expire and are ready for deletion, the technique is directed to finding those data blocks that are no longer referenced (used) by any valid snapshots.
