  • Publication number: 20240126764
    Abstract: Techniques support graph pattern matching queries inside a relational database management system (RDBMS) that supports SQL execution. The techniques compile a graph pattern matching query that includes a bounded recursive pattern query into a SQL query that can then be executed by the relational engine. As a result, techniques enable execution of graph pattern matching queries that include bounded recursive patterns on top of the relational engine by avoiding any change in the existing SQL engine.

  • Patent number: 11921785
    Abstract: Techniques described herein allow a user of an RDBMS to specify a graph algorithm function (GAF) declaration, which defines a graph algorithm that takes a graph object as input and returns a logical graph object as output. A database dictionary stores the GAF declaration, which allows addition of GAFs without changing the RDBMS kernel. GAFs are used within graph queries to compute output properties of property graph objects. Output properties are accessible in the enclosing graph pattern matching query, and are live for the duration of the query cursor execution. According to various embodiments, the declaration of a GAF includes a DESCRIBE function, used for semantic analysis of the GAF, and an EXECUTE function, which defines the operations performed by the GAF. Furthermore, composition of GAFs in a graph query is done by supplying, as the input graph argument of an outer GAF, the result of an inner GAF.

  • Publication number: 20230267120
    Abstract: Techniques described herein allow a user of an RDBMS to specify a graph algorithm function (GAF) that takes a graph object as input and returns a logical graph object as output. GAFs are used within graph queries to compute temporary and output properties (“GAF-computed properties”), which are live for the duration of the query cursor execution. GAF-computed output properties are accessible in the enclosing graph pattern matching query as though they were part of the input graph object of the GAF. Temporary cursor-duration tables are generated for the query cursor during compilation of a graph query that includes a GAF, and are used to store the GAF-computed properties. Each temporary table corresponds to one of the primary tables of the input graph, and includes, as a foreign key, primary key information from the corresponding primary table. Thus, the input graph of a GAF may be a “heterogeneous” graph.

  • Patent number: 11720562
    Abstract: The present invention relates to execution optimization of database queries. Herein are techniques for optimal execution based on query interpretation by translation to a domain specific language (DSL), with optimizations such as partial evaluation, abstract syntax tree (AST) rewriting, just in time (JIT) compilation, dynamic profiling, speculative logic, and Futamura projection. In an embodiment, a database management system (DBMS) that is hosted on a computer generates a query tree that represents a database query that contains an expression that is represented by a subtree of the query tree. The DBMS generates a sequence of DSL instructions that represents the subtree. The sequence of DSL instructions is executed to evaluate the expression during execution of the database query. In an embodiment, an AST is generated from the sequence of DSL instructions. In an embodiment, the DSL AST is optimally rewritten based on a runtime feedback loop that includes dynamic profiling information.

  • Patent number: 11500868
    Abstract: Vertex/edge table rows are mapped to unique integer identifiers, to enable construction of in-memory representation of a graph from existing, unmodified RDBMS tables. The unique integer identifiers are based on an encoding of primary key values of the table rows. The unique integer identifiers are used as graph indexes of the in-memory representation.

  • Patent number: 11397732
    Abstract: An in-memory graph query runtime is integrated inside a database management system and is capable of performing simple patter-matching queries against homogeneous graphs. The runtime efficiently combines breadth-first (BFS) and depth-first (DFS) neighbor traversal algorithms to achieve a hybrid runtime that takes the best from both sides. As a result, the hybrid runtime is able to process arbitrarily large queries with a fixed amount of memory, optimizing for memory locality.

  • Patent number: 11360976
    Abstract: Herein are computerized techniques for deploying JavaScript and TypeScript stored procedures and user-defined functions into a database management system (DBMS). In an embodiment, a computer generates a SQL call specification for each subroutine of one or more subroutines encoded in a scripting language. The generating is based on a signature declaration of the subroutine. Each subroutine comprises a definition of a stored procedure or a user-defined function. The computer packages the definition and the SQL call specification of each subroutine into a single bundle file. The definition and the SQL call specification of each subroutine are deployed into a DBMS from the single bundle file. Eventually, the SQL call specification of at least one subroutine is invoked to execute the definition of the subroutine in the DBMS.

  • Publication number: 20220114178
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for processing a graph query by exploiting an in-memory graph index and minimizing the number of storage accesses needed to project properties of generated paths. A predefined number of paths from a graph query runtime is accumulated, using different data structures, before executing storage accesses necessary to retrieve all properties needed. A first data structure stores all paths from the graph query runtime that hit cache(s) entirely. A second data structure stores paths that do not hit caches at any level or only a subset of the levels does. Once any of these data structures are full, result rows are produced based on the two data structures prior to extracting more paths from the graph query runtime.
