Abstract: A method for rapid deployment by a service provider of a data lake in association with a cloud computing service. In response to a request to provision the data lake, a new cloud account is created. Within the new cloud account, a service provider access role and associated permissions are created. The new cloud account is then associated, by cross-trust, with an account in the cloud computing service that is one of: a service provider deployment account, and a customer account. A private data cloud is then associated with the service provider deployment account or the customer account, as the case may be. The private data cloud is uniquely associated with the new cloud account and the data lake. A firewall service enabling secure access between the data lake and an external enterprise network is provisioned. The data lake is then provisioned in the private data cloud to complete the rapid deployment.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, resolved exceptions information regarding resolved exceptions may be obtained. The resolved exceptions information may indicate the resolved exceptions and, for each resolved exception of the resolved exceptions, a set of attributes of a transaction for which the resolved exception was triggered. The resolved exceptions information may be provided as input to a prediction model to obtain multiple decision trees via the prediction model. Each decision tree of the multiple decision trees may comprise nodes and conditional branches, each node of the nodes of the decision tree indicating a probability of a dividend-related classification for a transaction that corresponds to the node. A decision tree may be obtained from the multiple decision trees.
