Abstract: Shaded bid values may be determined and/or submitted to one or more auction modules for participation in auctions. Auction information including at least one of impression indications associated with the auctions, sets of features associated with the auctions, the shaded bid values associated with the auctions, etc. may be stored in a database. A machine learning model may be trained using the auction information to generate a first machine learning model with feature parameters associated with features. A bid request, indicative of a second set of features, may be received. The first machine learning model may be used to determine win probabilities and/or expected bid surpluses associated with multiple shaded bid values based upon one or more feature parameters, of the feature parameters, associated with the second set of features. A shaded bid value for submission may be determined based upon the win probabilities and/or the expected bid surpluses.

Abstract: A lightweight filesystem may be provided for remote storage caching. A filesystem may maintain a persistent cache for a data set stored as data files in immutable data objects in a remote data store. Filesystem metadata may be evaluated to determine whether a portion of a data file is stored in the persistent cache according to an offset and length specified in a request. If in the persistent cache, data obtained from a data block in the persistent cache may be returned. If not in the persistent cache, then the remote data store may be accessed and the data file in the immutable data object read to obtain the portion of the data file.

Abstract: A data store maintains a collection of data using a log-based storage structure. In response to a request to delete an item from the collection, the database management system adds a tombstone entry to the log-based storage structure, with additional metadata associated with the tombstone. Access to the tombstone metadata is provided to a client of the data store. The tombstone is deleted from the log-based storage structure after expiry of a time-to-live period.

Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling a database service to provide a zonal consistency model for read and write operations involving database tables replicated across a plurality of availability zones of a cloud provider network according to some embodiments. A database service routes zonally consistent operations to request routers and storage nodes that are located in a same availability zone as the client device from which the request originates. For example, in contrast to standard write operations and strongly consistent read operations, which are processed by a leader storage node that may be located in a different availability zone than the originating request, zonally consistent operations can be processed by any storage node and, in particular, by a storage node in a same availability zone as the originating client device.

Abstract: Replicas may be added to a multi-leader replica group for a data set. A new replica may be added to a group of replicas by copying a version of the data set according to a point in time to the new replica. As updates may occur at different ones of the replicas when the new replica is added, updates that occurred at a source replica for the snapshot and other replicas may be replicated by the different replicas according to the point in time at which the snapshot is created without blocking updates at any of the replicas in the replica group.
