  • Patent number: 11966426
    Abstract: Systems and methods for querying and obtaining results from an external data source that operates with a different querying language is provided. The system activates a datasource connector of the system. The system receives attributes of a query in a native language of the system, and the datasource connector formats the attributes of the query into a query language statement in a native language of the external source. The datasource connector then makes an application programming interface (API) call to the external source. The API call includes a transmission of the query language statement to the external source, which causes the external source to perform a query using the query language statement. The datasource connector receives results of the query performed at the external source, whereby the results are in a non-tabular format. The datasource connector then reformats the results into a tabular format.

  • Patent number: 11676092
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for cross-silo acquisition, reporting and analysis of enterprise data. A computer system receives enterprise data related to various vertical units of an enterprise, including machine-generated data and human-generated data. The computer system stores the machine-generated data with associations to at least some of the human generated data, and associates persona data representing a plurality of personas with the plurality of vertical units of the enterprise, such that at least one persona is associated with each of the vertical units. The computer system further associates a plurality of user-defined key performance indicators (KPIs) with the personas, and associates each of a plurality of users with at least one of the personas. The computer system computes the KPIs based on the enterprise data, and controls access by the users to the computed KPIs, based on personas to which the users are assigned.
