Patent number: 12189624Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to facilitating management and storage of configurations. In one embodiment, a request to provide configurations associated with a user-application pair is identified. Based on the user-application pair, a user-defined configuration cache is accessed to obtain user-defined configurations, an application-defined configuration cache is accessed to obtain application-defined configurations, and a system-defined configuration cache is accessed to obtain system-defined configurations. Thereafter, at least a portion of the user-defined configurations, the application-defined configurations, and the system-defined configurations are aggregated or merged to generate a set of configurations associated with the user-application pair. Such a set of configurations associated with the user-application pair are provided for use in performing a task.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2023Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Liang Han, Vishal Patel, Sundar R.

Patent number: 12019634Abstract: A data intake and query system can manage the search of large amounts of data using one or more processing nodes. When a new processing node is added or becomes available, the node coordinator can reassign duties from one or more processing nodes to the new processing node. The node coordinator can initially assign the new processing node one or more groups of data for backup purposes. At a later time, the node coordinator can reassign the new processing node to the one or more groups of data for searching purposes.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2023Date of Patent: June 25, 2024Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Tameem Anwar, Alexandros Batsakis, Tianyi Gou, Mehul Goyal, Ashish Mathew, Douglas Rapp, Sai Krishna Sajja, Anish Shrigondekar, Igor Stojanovski, Eric Woo, Zhenghui Xie, Ruochen Zhang, Sophia Rui Zhu

Patent number: 12003572Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for configuring a distributed computer system comprising a plurality of nodes of a plurality of node classes, configuration files for a plurality of nodes of each of the plurality of node classes are stored in a central repository. The configuration files include information representing a desired system state of the distributed computer system, and the distributed computer system operates to keep an actual system state of the distributed computer system consistent with the desired system state. The plurality of node classes includes forwarder nodes for receiving data from an input source, indexer nodes for indexing the data, and search head nodes for searching the data. Responsive to receiving changes to the configuration files, the changes are propagated to nodes of the plurality of nodes impacted by the changes based on a node class of the nodes impacted by the changes.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2022Date of Patent: June 4, 2024Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Ledion Bitincka, Vishal Patel, Geoffrey Hendrey, Eric Woo

Patent number: 11934408Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to an interactive development environment (IDE) interface that provides historical visualization of queries and query result information iteratively and intuitively. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a process is provided to generate visualizations of queries and processed query result information in a single, persistent, integrated display. Each query and resultant search data information is presented iteratively in chronological order, and maintain a persistent, viewable history of a search data exploration session.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: SPLUNK INC.Inventor: Eric Woo

Patent number: 11892996Abstract: Systems and methods are described for monitoring indexing nodes, populating and maintaining a resource catalog with relevant information, receiving requests for indexing node availability or assignments, identifying indexing nodes that are available to process data, and/or communicating information relating to available indexing nodes. The system can maintain the resource catalog based on communications with each of the containerized indexing nodes. The system can receive, from a partition manager of a data intake and query system, a request for a containerized indexing node that the partition manager can assign to process data received by the partition manager. The system can identify an available containerized indexing node to process the data. The system can communicate, to the partition manager, an indexing node identifier associated with the available containerized indexing node.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2019Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Tameem Anwar, Alexandros Batsakis, Sai Krishna Sajja, Igor Stojanovski, Eric Woo

Patent number: 11829415Abstract: Systems and methods are described for improving data availability and/or resiliency of indexers of a data intake and query system. Due to a lag between the time at which data is received and the time at which the data is available for searching, the data intake and query system may receive a query indicating that received (but unavailable for search) data is to be included as part of the query. A cluster master can dynamically track what data is available for searching by different indexers and map the data to filter criteria using a bucket map identifier. When a search head receives a query, it can request a bucket map identifier from the cluster master and send the bucket map identifier to the indexers that will be executing the query. The indexers can use the bucket map identifier to request the individual buckets that they are assigned to search.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2020Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Alexandros Batsakis, Mehul Goyal, Ashish Mathew, Douglas Rapp, Igor Stojanovski, Eric Woo

Patent number: 11755577Abstract: Techniques for scheduling search queries in a computing environment are disclosed. A search query scheduling system associates a first set of queries with a first skew tolerance, the first set of queries scheduled to be performed during a first period, where the first skew tolerance is based on a duration of the first period. The search query scheduling system reschedules a first subset of search queries included in the first set of queries by skewing the first subset of search queries over a first portion of the first period based on the first skew tolerance.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2022Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: SPLUNK INC.Inventors: Paul J.

Patent number: 11562023Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for processing and executing queries in a data intake and query system. An indexing system of the data intake and query system receives data and stores at least a portion of it in buckets, which are then stored in a shared storage system. The indexing system merges multiple buckets to generate merged buckets and uploads the merged buckets to the shared storage system.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2018Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Alexandros Batsakis, Sourav Pal, Sai Krishna Sajja, Hasan Alayli, Vishal Patel, Igor Stojanovski, Eric Woo, Steve Wong, Tameem Anwar

Patent number: 11436116Abstract: Systems and methods are described for improving data availability and/or resiliency of indexers of a data intake and query system. A data intake and query system can index large amounts of data using one or more indexers. An indexer can store a copy of the data that the indexer is assigned to process in the shared storage system, and a cluster master can track the storage of the data and the indexer assigned to process the data. In the event an indexer fails or is otherwise unable to index data that it has been assigned to index, the cluster master can assign one or more second indexers to process the data. The second indexer can download the data from the shared storage system.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2020Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Alexandros Batsakis, Mehul Goyal, Ashish Mathew, Douglas Rapp, Igor Stojanovski, Eric Woo
