  • Patent number: 11841841
    Abstract: A method for pre-utilizing tables before refresh includes selecting a query for execution in a data analytics application and identifying a table specified by the query, for instance a materialized table. Another operation includes computing an encoding, such as a hash value, for at least one portion of the identified table. Another operation includes comparing the computed encoding to a pre-stored encoding for the at least one portion of the identified table. On the condition that the computed encoding is identical to the pre-stored encoding, the operations include utilizing the identified table in executing the query in lieu of re-materializing the identified table. Otherwise, on the condition that the computed encoding differs from the pre-stored encoding, the operations include re-materializing the identified table before returning the results of the query.

  • Patent number: 11797579
    Abstract: Data content governance for presentation layer synchronization for a version controlled underlying data model includes defining a data model for underlying data in a database, specifying a presentation layer for the defined data model and identifying selected elements of the data model necessary to meet data requirements of the specified presentation layer. Then, the identified selected elements of the data model are serialized and both the specified presentation layer and the serialized elements are versioned in respect to the specified presentation layer. Thereafter, when the data model becomes modified, the specified presentation layer is modified to accommodate the modified data model. In response to the modification, a different selection of elements of the data model necessary to meet data requirements of the modified presentation layer are re-identified and serialized, with the modified presentation layer and the serialized re-identified different selection of elements becoming re-versioned.
