  • Patent number: 9258360
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide techniques for disaster recovery in the event of a database connection failure. In one embodiment, a network address for a secondary server may be stored in multiple data objects of a client computer. In the event of a failed connection to a primary server, the network address of the secondary server may be retrieved from one of the data objects stored in the client computer. When an updated network address for the secondary server is received, it may be propagated to the data objects of the client computer.

  • Patent number: 8539504
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for managing a heterogeneous connection pooling structure. The heterogeneous architecture of pooling management comprises connections having different connection attributes (i.e. different data source properties) that can share a same connection pool (i.e. same connection pool data source). An application requests a connection from data source having a specified data source property. An application server searches a pool module for an available cached connection. If a cached connection is available, the cached connection is automatically selected as a returned connection. A connection reuse protocol and a statement reuse protocol is determined and invoked to reconfigure the cached connection for reuse as a connection between the application and a database server.

  • Patent number: 8489566
    Abstract: Systems and methods to implement optimistic locking in online and offline environments are provided. A particular method includes receiving from an application an application data request related to retrieving a data item from a data store. The method also includes sending an optimistic locking information request to the data store to retrieve optimistic locking information, such as an identifier, associated with the data item. Additionally, the method includes receiving a data item update statement from the application while a connection between the application and a database server coupled to the data store persists or after a connection between the application and the database server has terminated and reconnected. The data item update statement relates to storing an updated version of the data item at the data store. Further, the method includes synchronizing the data item with the updated version of the data item based on the optimistic locking information.

  • Patent number: 8284944
    Abstract: A system and method for database security provides, a database security method that receives an encryption property from an application and receives information relating to a database server. The method then requests security access to a database server using the strongest encryption algorithm server may support. If this request gets turned down, then the method determines the strongest encryption algorithm the server actually supports using the information the database server sent back and calculates the encryption keys. The method then caches the encryption algorithm along with the encryption keys in a persistent storage. For subsequent connections, the method checks the persistent storage first and retrieves the encryption algorithm and encryption keys from the persistent storage if the cache values are available, and sends the cached value to database server. By doing this, the database driver doesn't need to synchronize the encryption algorithm with server and calculate the encryption keys again.

  • Patent number: 8214389
    Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system, method and computer program product or the administration of client side property settings in a distributed and heterogeneous environment is provided. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method comprises establishing communication between a plurality of property agents and a property service, and looking up an identifier in a property repository for each property agent. A property setting in an updated client application associated with a selected one of the property agents is then modified by a database administrator. Changed property settings from the selected one of the property agents are then sent to the property service. Property settings associated with the updated client application are updated in the property repository. The updated property settings are sent from the property service to a plurality of property agents. The property agents may then merge the updated property settings into an associated application.
