Abstract: A database dependency resolver system can identify different dependencies of a user application and integrate the identified dependencies in different execution environments of a distributed database system. The different execution environments can manage different versions of a given programming language, or other types of computational architectures (e.g., different CPU types). A database user can provide a database statement (e.g., query) that activates the different dependencies in the different environments to generate results data.

Abstract: An external function system can be implemented on a database to perform processing on one or more external network services. The external function system can comprise a particular external function for a particular external service, an outbound serializer function, and an inbound serializer function that are linked with the particular external function. The outbound serializer function can be configured to transform the data of a query from a database format to a different format of the particular external network service. The inbound deserializer function can be configured to receive data returned from the external service and transform the data to the format of the database.

Abstract: A method includes detecting, by at least one hardware processor, an upload of a user application within a database system. The user application includes user-defined function (UDF) code. A plurality of dependencies of the user application is determined by the at least one hardware processor. A plurality of execution environments corresponding to the plurality of dependencies is generated by the at least one hardware processor. The plurality of execution environments is associated with a corresponding plurality of data types of the UDF. A database query is decoded. The database query specifies database data of a data type of the plurality of data types of the UDF. The database query is processed using at least one of the plurality of execution environments to generate results data. The at least one of the plurality of execution environments corresponds to the data type of the plurality of data types of the UDF.

Abstract: Systems and methods for caching file system collections atomically. The systems and methods perform operations comprising: receiving a request to access a collection of data comprising a plurality of files stored on a storage device; in response to receiving the request, transferring the collection of data from the storage device to a first subfolder in a cache associated with the storage device; generating a lock file comprising a reference to the first subfolder in the cache; and atomically controlling access to the collection of data in the first subfolder and removal of the collection of data in the first subfolder from the cache via the lock file.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for a packages policy object to enable customers to create and apply packages policies provided by third-party package managers. A user-defined function (UDF) is received by a cloud data platform. The UDF includes code related to at least one operation to be performed. The cloud data platform receives a package policy including at least one allowlist and at least one blocklist and compares the at least one allowlist and the at least one blocklist to the at least one package specification. The cloud data platform computes a difference set based on the comparison. The difference set includes metadata associated with one or more packages to remove. The cloud data platform determines whether the UDF is permitted based at least in part on the difference set.

Abstract: A database query specifies a user-defined function (UDF) to apply to one or more tables in a distributed database. The one or more tables are identified in the distributed database. The one or more tables are associated with an initial set of data types native to the distributed database. The one or more tables are converted to database data comprising data types of the UDF. The UDF is executed on the database data to generate results data. The results data is converted to table results data. The table results data is associated with the initial set of data types. The table results data is stored in the distributed database.

Abstract: A query referencing a function associated with a remote software component is received by a network-based data warehouse system. Temporary security credentials corresponding to a role at a cloud computing service platform are obtained. The role has permission to send calls to a web endpoint corresponding to the remote software component. A request comprising input data and electronically signed using the temporary security credentials is sent to a web Application Programming Interface (API) management system of the cloud computing service platform. The request, when received by the web API management system, causes the web API management system to invoke external functionality provided by the remote software component at the web endpoint with respect to the input data. A response comprising a result of invoking the external functionality is received from the web API management system, and the result data is processed according to the query.

Abstract: A query referencing an external table function provided by a remote software component is received. Requests to execute the external table function on input data are sent to a proxy service. A first request includes a batch of input rows from the input data. A first response to the first request received from the proxy service includes a first portion of result data and a pagination token. The pagination token indicates that at least a second portion of the result data corresponding to the first batch of input rows is to be obtained from the remote software component. Based on the pagination token, a second request is sent to obtain the second portion of the result data. One or more responses are received from the proxy service that comprise at least the second portion of the result data. The result data is processed according to the query.

Abstract: A file access system for user defined functions (UDFs) can be implemented on a distributed database system. The system can store UDF signatures and interfaces (e.g., classes, sub-classes) that can be called by other users. Upon a UDF being called, one or more interface objects (e.g., InputStream) can be created and requests transferred to a execution node via a network channel. The execution node can implement multiple threads that are authorized and download file data from a staging location (e.g., internal stage, external stage) concurrently.

Abstract: A method includes decoding, by at least one hardware processor, a request for a user-defined function (UDF). The request includes a reference to one or more files. The method further includes generating, by the at least one hardware processor, the UDF based on the request. The UDF includes a file reference object with file path information corresponding to the reference. The file path information identifies a file path to the one or more files. A UDF call into the UDF is detected. The UDF call specifies the file path information. The UDF call is processed to generate result data using the one or more files.

The system can store UDF interfaces and file reference objects that can be called by other users. Upon a UDF being called, files on a stage, one or more interface objects (e.g., InputStream), and file reference objects can be implemented by execution nodes of the distributed database system. The execution nodes can implement multiple threads that are authenticated and can download file data from a staging location concurrently.
