  • Systems and methods for configurable replication of time data
    Patent number: 10853386
    Abstract: Performing data replication from a time management system. The method includes reading, by a replication controller, a replication configuration upon creation, modification, or deletion of a first data object. The configuration references a replication scenario of a defined set of replication scenarios, the replication scenario having one or more associated replication scenario objects. The method further includes creating, or changing a status of, a data replication proxy object if the first data object is an associated replication scenario object of the replication scenario, the data replication proxy object referencing the first data object. The method further includes receiving a query requesting instances of the data replication proxy object having a status of out of sync or deleted. The method further includes responding to the query with the instances of the data replication proxy object having the status of out of sync or deleted.

  • Synchronizing document replication in distributed systems
    Patent number: 10447779
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for document synchronization. The method may include generating, by a controller, a first proxy object for a first document at a first system, the first system including the controller and the first proxy object; updating, by the controller, the first proxy object to include a replication status of the first document, when a creation, an update, and/or a deletion occurs at the first document. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.

  • Sequential replication with limited number of objects
    Patent number: 10152490
    Abstract: A current time associated with a first received notification of a new object in a data set of a first system is accessed and a replication time is set to the current time. For each notification received regarding a new object in the data set of the first system, the new object is added to the replication queue. The new objects added to the queue are assigned the replication time until a specified maximum number of new objects have been added to the replication queue. Afterwards, new objects are added to the queue with no assigned replication time. When the objects in the queue are to be replicated, only the objects with the assigned replication time are copied from the queue to a second system. A new replication time is set to a new current time associated with confirmation of receipt of the copied objects received from the second system.

  • SEQUENTIAL REPLICATION WITH LIMITED NUMBER OF OBJECTS
    Publication number: 20170185628
    Abstract: A current time associated with a first received notification of a new object in a data set of a first system is accessed and a replication time is set to the current time. For each notification received regarding a new object in the data set of the first system, the new object is added to the replication queue. The new objects added to the queue are assigned the replication time until a specified maximum number of new objects have been added to the replication queue.

  • Providing code list extensibility
    Patent number: 8863097
    Abstract: A computer implemented method for providing code list extensibility includes providing a first code data type representation. The first code data type representation corresponding to a first code data type and having a first code value representation for at least one code value. The at least one code value associated with a corresponding code value issuing entity. The method may also include providing a second code data type representation. The second code data type representation corresponding to the first code data type and having a second code value representation for the at least one code value. The second code value representation including a unique identifier associated with the code value issuing entity. The method also may include mapping the first code data type representation and the second code data type representation based at least in part on the unique identifier associated with the code value issuing entity.
