  • Publication number: 20220413819
    Abstract: The subject technology generates, by executing first code in a first programming language, a resilient distributed dataset (RDD). The subject technology generates, by executing the first code in the first programming language, a second RDD based on the generated RDD. The subject technology generates, by executing the first code in the first programming language, a directed acyclic graph (DAG) including the generated RDD and the generated second RDD. The subject technology serializes the DAG. The subject technology generates a database table based on the serialized DAG. The subject technology converts the first code to second code in a second programming language different than the first programming language, and at least one database query in a second format different than the first programming language. The subject technology sends the converted first code and the at least one database query to a database system for execution.

  • Publication number: 20220414094
    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.

  • Publication number: 20220391357
    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.

  • Patent number: 11516216
    Abstract: A credentials store definition identifying a remote credential store is received. The credential store definition includes access information to enable access to the remote credentials store. A credentials object is created in an internal database based on a credentials object definition. The credentials object identifies a security credential to retrieve from the remote credentials store to access an external resource. At runtime, a request to access the external resource is received, and based on receiving the request, the security credentials identified by the credentials object are retrieved from the remote credential store using the access information. The retrieved security credential is provided to a processing component to access the external resource.

  • Patent number: 11487597
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for a providing stored procedures in a network-based database system. A database system executes a stored procedure within a sandbox process. The sandbox process separates the stored procedure from the other services and processes of the database system and may also limit the resources (e.g., storage, memory, etc.) and functionality available to the stored procedure. Stored procedures are commonly designed to execute database queries that are processed by other components of the database system. To provide for secure communication between the stored procedure and the other components of the database system, the sandbox process is loaded with java database connectivity (JDBC) libraries (e.g., JDBC instance) that is modified to limit the communication abilities of the stored procedure.

  • Patent number: 11347527
    Abstract: A system comprises at least one hardware processor and a memory storing instructions. When executed, the instructions cause the at least one hardware processor to perform operations comprising receiving, in a computing process, a Java user-defined table function (Java UDTF), the Java UDTF including code related to a process method to be performed that includes receiving one or more input tables and transforming the one or more input tables to an output table; determining, using at least a security policy, whether performing one or more portions of the process method are permitted; and performing portions of the process method determined to be permitted.

  • Publication number: 20220129335
    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.

  • Patent number: 11295009
    Abstract: The subject technology receives, in a computing process, a user defined function, the user defined function including code related to at least one operation to be performed. The subject technology determines by a security manager whether performing the at least one operation is permitted, the security manager determines restrictions, based at least in part on a security policy. The subject technology performs the at least one operation. The subject technology sends a result of the at least one operation to the computing process, where sending the result of the at least one operation utilizes a data transport mechanism that supports a network transfer of columnar data.

  • Publication number: 20220100758
    Abstract: External functions can provide users of a database system the ability to invoke external services while operating from inside the database system. The techniques described herein address may detect throttling by the external system and automatically adjust or modify a request rate accordingly. Also, the techniques described herein may increase the request rate to optimize the use of the resources provided by the external system. These techniques allow the database system to improve efficiency when working with external services, which may or may not be elastic or scalable. Moreover, these techniques can decrease query execution times and reduce costs.
