Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating prevention of duplicate transactions across multiple transaction entities in database systems according to one embodiment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes receiving a request to facilitate a financial transaction, wherein the request is received from an external computing device and includes an idempotency key that is unique to the request, and verifying, based on the idempotency key, the request as being a valid request or an invalid request, wherein the valid request is registered, and classifying, based on the idempotency key and a gateway log, the valid request as an original request or a duplicate request that is a successful duplicate request or an unsuccessful duplicate request.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating secure communication of data during transactions across multiple transaction entities in database systems according to one embodiment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes receiving a request to facilitate a financial transaction, wherein the request is received from an external computing device and includes sensitive data and one or more transient keys associated with a user, and selecting a gateway from multiple gateways to facilitate performance of the financial transaction, where the gateway is selected based on participation in securing of the sensitive data.

Abstract: Technologies are provided for supporting tenant customizations in a cloud computing platform. A standard application programming interface (API) can be defined to support a generic set of parameters that allow tenant-specified custom data to be passed to and from the standard API. The generic set of parameters allow the standard API to process requests and responses that include a payload that comprises tenant-specified custom data. The payload allows the tenant-specified custom data to be passed to and from the standard API. When a request is received at the cloud computing platform, a request payload of the request, that includes tenant-specified custom data, can be processed at the standard API, and a response can be sent from the cloud computing platform that includes a response payload that includes the tenant-specified custom data.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer program products, and articles of manufacture for mitigating a network-based attack are described. A first request associated with a transaction is obtained and a tracking identifier of the first request is associated with the transaction. A count of outstanding requests associated with a user is compared to a throttling limit. If the count of outstanding requests associated with the user is greater than the throttling limit, processing of the first request may be denied.

Abstract: Method and systems may be used to provide search results in response to plain language queries from a database. A search query may be received and a database may be queried. A metadata search of the database data structures may be performed to determine a search set based on the search query. Using the search set, a data search may be performed to determine the database data structures for a result set. Result data structures may be generated based on the result set. The result data structures may be iteratively provided to a client to display the search results responsive to the search query quickly. The relevant data may be retrieved from the database in response to a selection. In some instances, the results retrieved from the database in response to a selection of a result data structure may be limited based on a count parameter.
