Patent number: 9449033Abstract: Provided are a method, computer program product, and system for processing a data management request. User intent that defines properties of target data is determined. Policies and constraints for the data management request are determined. An abstract data management request that identifies source data, the target data, and the polices and constraints is created. A technology to use to process the data management request based on the user intent, policies, and constraints is determined.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2013Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Holger Kache, Jacques J. Labrie, Veera Maddipati, Paulo R. R. Pereira, Alan P. Plante, Charles D. Wolfson

Patent number: 9355135Abstract: Provided are techniques for data movement. An activity is created that overrides existing security, that is associated with a user, that defines one or more source tables in a relational database and one or more target tables that are available to the user for the activity, and that provides security credentials of an author of the activity for use by the user, wherein the one or more target tables represent data in one or more target files in a file system. The activity is executed using the security credentials of the author to move data in a source table of the one or more source tables to a target file of the one or more target files, wherein a target table of the one or more target tables is defined over the target file. Access is provided to the user to the moved data using the target table.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2014Date of Patent: May 31, 2016Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Manish A. Bhide, Veera R. Maddipati, Jean-Claude Mamou, Alan P. Plante

Patent number: 8935709Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a computer system monitors information assets providing data for constructing a logical entity. The information assets are dependent upon each other for data and form a topology. The computer system receives an event message associated with an information asset. The event message includes information relating to one or more conditions of that information asset. The computer system processes the received event message to determine the presence of a change within the associated information asset that affects the topology. The change is determined based on the information relating to the one or more conditions within the received event message. The computer system further transmits a notification of the change to one or more entities in response to determining the presence of the change. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for monitoring information assets.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2012Date of Patent: January 13, 2015Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Holger Kache, Rajiv S. Kadayam, Michael John Morton, Alan P. Plante, Robert Clarence Webber, III
