Patents by Inventor Declan Gerard Shanaghy

Declan Gerard Shanaghy has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11831649
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards a system and method for a cloud-based front end that may abstract and enable access to the underlying cloud-hosted elements and objects that may be part of a multi-tenant application, such as a search application. Search objects may be employed to access indexed objects. An amount of indexed data accessible to a user may be based on an index storage limit selected by the user, such that data that exceeds the index storage limit may continue to be indexed. Also, one or more projects can be elastically scaled for a user to provide resources that may meet the specific needs of each project.

  • Patent number: 11768848
    Abstract: Various embodiments describe multi-site cluster-based data intake and query systems, including cloud-based data intake and query systems. Using a hybrid search system that includes cloud-based data intake and query systems working in concert with so-called “on-premises” data intake and query systems can promote the scalability of search functionality. In addition, the hybrid search system can enable data isolation in a manner in which sensitive data is maintained “on premises” and information or data that is not sensitive can be moved to the cloud-based system. Further, the cloud-based system can enable efficient leveraging of data that may already exist in the cloud.

  • Patent number: 11748394
    Abstract: In embodiments, at a first cluster, information identifying a plurality of indexers of the first cluster is determined based on a master node of the first cluster identifying active indexers within the first cluster. The information is transmitted from the first cluster to a second cluster. Such information can include a list of active indexers, and an indication of how to communicate with the plurality of indexers that is used by the second cluster in distributing a distributed search query. The distributed search query is received at the plurality of indexers of the first cluster. The distributed search query is distributed across the plurality of indexers based on the information identifying the plurality of indexers. A response is provided from at least one of the plurality of indexers, wherein each response from a respective indexer is generated based on an evaluation of the distributed search query.
