Patent number: 12367083Abstract: Conventionally, users of integration platforms, or other platforms that utilize many different services, must install, manage, configure, and administer the underlying resources for connectivity with the platforms. Adapter orchestration as a service (AOaaS) simplifies this process by enabling users to quickly and easily deploy an adapter orchestration service comprising instances of selected adapters for multiple services in discrete, autonomous containers that can be spun up and down as needed. The adapters may translate data for all of the services to a common format. Clients may access the data for all of the adapters in the adapter orchestration service via a single application programming interface (API) of the adapter orchestration service, which provides access to the data in the common format.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2022Date of Patent: July 22, 2025Assignee: Boomi, LPInventors: Alejandro Flores, Madhav Srimadh Bhagavatam, Ed Macosky, Rajesh Raheja, Dana Burkart

Patent number: 12367208Abstract: Typically, in-depth domain knowledge is required to efficiently query a data system. Accordingly, embodiments are disclosed for a no-code method for implementing data operations, such as extract, transform, load (ETL) operations on third-party platforms, such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) platforms. Disclosed embodiments may provide a graphical user interface that enables a user to construct a blueprint of a data operation using drag-and-drop operations on a virtual canvas. The blueprint may be translated into ETL instructions that are deployed on a proxy service for simplified access via a uniform resource locator (URL). When the URL is accessed, the proxy service may execute the ETL instructions to communicate with a domain-specific engine on a third-party platform to obtain the results of the data operation. These results may also be periodically cached according to time-to-live intervals to reduce overall retrieval times.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2023Date of Patent: July 22, 2025Assignee: BOOMI, LPInventors: Sampathkumar Gurusamy, Dana Burkart, Alejandro Flores, Steve Lucas

Patent number: 9863189Abstract: An earth-boring tool includes a cutting element having a first volume of polycrystalline material including catalyst material and a second volume free of catalyst material. A boundary between the first volume and the second volume is nonlinear in a cross-sectional plane that includes a centerline of the cutting element and an anticipated point of contact of the cutting element with the surface of the formation to be cut. Each line tangent the boundary in the cross-sectional plane forms an angle with the centerline of the cutting element greater than the contact back rake angle of the cutting element. In some cutting elements, some portions of the boundary may have another selected shape. Some cutting elements have a boundary wherein tangent lines form angles of greater than 20° with the centerline of the cutting element. Methods of forming wellbores are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2014Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Assignee: Baker Hughes IncorporatedInventors: David A.
