  • Patent number: 11880372
    Abstract: A plurality of metadata entries may be sent from a database system to a distributed storage system via a communication interface. The metadata entries may correspond with a respective plurality of metadata identifiers. A first function in a smart contract deployed on a blockchain may be executed to mint a designated non-fungible token initially owned by a first blockchain party corresponding with a database system account. A first transaction transferring the designated non-fungible token to a second blockchain party different from the first blockchain party may be identified. A second function in the smart contract may be executed to record a second transaction updating an attribute value associated with the designated non-fungible token to include a designated one of the plurality of metadata identifiers corresponding with a designated one of the metadata entries.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20230368191
    Abstract: A database system account in a database system may be authenticated as owning a smart contract deployed to a blockchain. Blockchain information related to the smart contract may be received from the blockchain. The blockchain information may identify one or more tokens minted by the smart contract and/or one or more wallets in which the one or more tokens are stored. A plurality of records created based on the blockchain information may be stored in the database system. The plurality of records may include a first record representing the smart contract and a second one or more records representing the one or more tokens.

  • Publication number: 20230368185
    Abstract: An instruction may be transmitted from a database system to a blockchain via a communication interface to deploy a smart contract to the blockchain. The smart contract may include a token transfer redemption policy identifying a designated recipient. A first blockchain transaction transferring a first quantity of a first token minted via the smart contract from a first blockchain party to a second blockchain party may be identified. The first blockchain transaction may involve the transfer of a second quantity of a second token from the second blockchain party to the first blockchain party. A third quantity of the second token may be transmitted to the designated recipient. The third quantity may be determined based on the token transfer redemption policy and the second quantity of the second token.

  • Publication number: 20230367766
    Abstract: An estimated environmental impact profile may be determined based on a smart contract deployment configuration, which may identify an estimated number of first tokens to be minted via a smart contract instance based on a smart contract template and deployed to a blockchain. One or more instructions to perform a plurality of operations on the designated blockchain may be transmitted. The plurality of operations may include deploying the smart contract instance to the designated blockchain and minting a first number of first tokens via the smart contract instance. The estimated environmental impact profile may be updated based on the one or more operations. An instruction to transfer a second number of second tokens to a recipient may be transmitted. The second number may be selected based on the estimated environmental impact profile to offset an environmental impact associated with the smart contract instance.

  • Patent number: 11544762
    Abstract: A system and related processing methodologies for recommending a product based on a work order are described. The system receives an input case description, including a current repair item and a current work type. Historical work orders associating a plurality of products with repair items and work types are searched for a co-occurrence of the repair item matching the current repair item, and the work type matching the current work type. Upon finding a match, the product associated with the match is added to a set of candidate products for the current work order. A similarity measure between the candidate product and current work order description, a current work type category, and popularity of the candidate product is generated and then used in the generation of a probability score for the candidate product and current work order. If the probability score meets a threshold, the candidate product is recommended.
