The approach recalls one or more data sets of the group of data sets from a slower storage device to a faster storage device.

Abstract: An approach for recommending an application of a software code update. The approach receives components of an executable program. The approach scans the components to divide the executable program into units. The approach creates a logical layer of entry lists, based on the units, for instantiations of the executable program. The approach loads the instantiations of the executable program based on the logical layers. The approach monitors the execution of the instantiations to increment counters based on executions of the units. The approach creates a heatmap of the executions based on the counters. The approach generates a recommendation to update the executable based on the heatmap.

Abstract: Shared materialized views are maintained during data changes to the primary data and during creation of new materialized views. Shared data stored for use by shared materialized views is distinguished from data stored by an independent materialized view. A view selector manages data updates to shared materialized views and corresponding mapping table. The view selector directs movement of data between a shared materialized view and an independent materialized view through the lifecycle of the materialized views.

Abstract: Validating microservice calls is provided. It is determined whether a microservice call to a microservice hosted by a computer is valid based on a policy in a proactive condition map of a validation proxy that matches the microservice call. In response to determining that the microservice call is invalid based on the policy in the proactive condition map that matches the microservice call, the microservice call is blocked to the microservice. It is determined whether the microservice call needs to be redirected to another microservice based on the policy. In response to determining that the microservice call does need to be redirected to another microservice based on the policy, the microservice call is redirected to the other microservice with a callback to the microservice.

The method may also include restoring the updated executable file based on the delta file and the base executable file. The method may further include returning data in the updated executable file.

Abstract: Computer technology for combining an encryption / decryption (e/d) key with additional information to obtain a specialized e/d key. The additional information one or more of the following types of additional information: client UUID (universally unique identifier), FQDN (fully qualified domain name), database hardware information, data physical position on the hard disk and/or stored data creation date. By combining the basic key with these kind(s) of operational information and/or software / hardware identifier information, the security of the underlying encrypted data can be meaningfully enhanced.

Abstract: A connection request from one computing entity is obtained. The connection request is a request to connect to another computing entity and includes a requested connectivity protocol configuration. A determination is made as to whether the requested connectivity protocol configuration is a match to a particular connectivity protocol configuration of the other computing entity. Based on determining that the requested connectivity protocol configuration is not a match to the particular connectivity protocol configuration of the other computing entity, a selected configuration file that is a match to the requested connectivity protocol configuration is selected from a plurality of configuration files. Based on selecting the selected configuration file, routing of the connection request to a connectivity protocol service corresponding to the selected configuration file is initiated to facilitate establishing a connection between the one computing entity and the other computing entity.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to progressively validating access token. In response to intercepting an initial call for a transaction for a service from a client, a token is validated for the initial call of the transaction for the service, the validating including contacting an authentication sever and locally storing a time to live received for the token. In response to intercepting at least one successive call for the transaction for the service from the client, it is determined that the token for the at least one successive call is valid based on the time to live locally saved. The at least one successive call for the transaction for the service is permitted to pass without contacting the authentication sever.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for improving accuracy and efficiency of auditing databases. A table, list or index of a database is analyzed to identify metadata, which includes time series data, user data, an Internet Protocol address and operation data. The identified metadata is associated with the corresponding record or row of the table, list or index from which the metadata was extracted. A determination is then made as to whether to record a raw data image associated with the record or row of the analyzed table, list or index based on the corresponding data operation. The identified metadata as well as the recorded data images, if any, are stored in a structured audit log. Auditing information is then obtained from a structured audit log based on matching the record or row identifier (RID) associated with the query with the RID associated with the structured audit log.
