Abstract: Technologies described herein relate to conflict detection in a geo-replication architecture that includes several computing systems, where a database is asynchronously updated at the several computing systems and update notifications are transmitted amongst the computing systems to ensure that the database is replicated across the computing systems. Partial vector clocks, instead of full vector clocks, are used to update the database at different computing systems, thereby using fewer network resources when compared to conventional approaches. Further, less than whole vector clocks can be persisted with records stored on disk, thereby using fewer disk resources when compared with conventional approaches.

Abstract: Log messages are compressed, searched, and decompressed. A dictionary is used to store non-numeric expressions found in log messages. Both numeric and non-numeric expressions found in log messages are represented by placeholders in a string of log “type” information. Another dictionary is used to store the log type information. A compressed log message contains a key to the log-type dictionary and a sequence of values that are keys to the non-numeric dictionary and/or numeric values. Searching may be performed by parsing a search query into subqueries that target the dictionaries and/or content of the compressed log messages. A dictionary may reference segments that contain a number of log messages, so that all log message need not be considered for some searches.
