  • Patent number: 11263178
    Abstract: Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods, and computer program products for facilitating the prediction of the quantity and/or qualities of new data objects of a particular data object type to be generated based upon past generation of data objects of the particular data object type. Data that is used to generate predictions is obtained and filtered according to criteria that are configurable. In some implementations, the criteria indicate an industry for which predictions are generated, a geographic region for which predictions are generated, and/or time period criteria indicating a time period for which the predictions are generated. Predictions may be generated using a computer-generated model, which may be associated with the particular data object type.

  • Patent number: 11042434
    Abstract: Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods, and computer program products for performing error rate handling as data is ingested across data sources. Notifications are generated and transmitted according to a hierarchical configuration. The hierarchical configuration includes two or more tiers of notification settings, where each tier corresponds to a different error rate threshold and has a corresponding set of notification parameters. A set of notification parameters can identify one or more sets of individuals to be notified upon determining that the error rate exceeds the corresponding error rate threshold. As the error rate increases, notifications may be generated and transmitted according to further tiers of the hierarchical configuration.

  • Publication number: 20200401978
    Abstract: Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for facilitating the intelligent recommendation and simulation of goals using ingested database data. A graphical user interface (GUI) is provided to facilitate configuration of a goal. A goal configuration indicates a goal defined by a goal definition, a target improvement in relation to the goal, and a target date. A determination is made as to whether the target improvement in relation to the goal can be achieved by the target date. A goal recommendation is presented according to a result of determining whether the target improvement in relation to the goal can be achieved by the target date. A goal recommendation can indicate a confidence with which the recommended goal can be achieved. After a goal is created, goal simulation can generate and provide a visual representation of predicted progression toward the goal over time.
