  • Publication number: 20200257614
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to identifying and presenting differences between a plurality of recorded executions of an executable entity. One or more models are created over the plurality of recorded prior executions of at least a portion of an executable entity. These models include at least one of (i) a control flow model, or (ii) a data model. An anomalous model data point is identified within these models, and a first location in at least one of the plurality of recorded executions that corresponds to the anomalous model data point is identified. A second location in the at least one of the plurality of recorded executions is also identified. This second location is causal to the anomalous model data point at the first location. The identity of the first and/or second locations in the least one of the plurality of recorded executions is presented.

  • Publication number: 20200257615
    Abstract: Techniques are provided to use historic execution state information to visualize tracepoint data. For example, historic execution state information corresponding to an application's previous execution is accessed. This historic execution state information was collected while the application was executing. After correlating the historic execution state information to the application's code, a tracepoint is associated with a portion of the code. Consequently, when the code is replayed based on the historic execution state information, the tracepoint causes a behavior of that code portion to be logged while the code is replayed uninterrupted. The code is then actually replayed based on the historic execution state information. During the replay, the tracepoint causes the behavior of the code portion to be logged. The logged behavior is visualized on a user interface.

  • Publication number: 20200242007
    Abstract: Dynamically instrumenting code that executes based on a historic execution of a subject executable entity. Historic execution information for a subject executable entity is accessed. The historic execution information includes execution state information for at least one point in time in the historic execution the executable entity. Diagnostic code instruction(s) are identified, for instrumenting subject code instruction(s) of the executable entity. The subject code instruction(s) are virtually executed based at least on supplying the subject code instruction(s) with data from the historic execution information. While virtually executing the identified executable code instruction(s), the diagnostic code instruction(s) are also executed. The diagnostic code instruction(s) collecting diagnostic data regarding the virtual execution of the subject code instruction(s), or override at least one of a value or an execution behavior of the subject code instruction(s).

  • Publication number: 20200158245
    Abstract: A valve has a housing defining an inlet and an outlet and a cavity therebetween which receives a valve seat. The valve seat defines a slot which receives a gate. The valve seat is sealingly engaged with the housing, the gate sealingly engages the valve seat and is movable within the slot between an open and a closed position using an actuator. An opening in the housing provides access to the cavity. The valve seat may be removed from the housing through the opening by attaching the valve seat to the gate, thereby attaching the valve seat to the actuator, and withdrawing the gate from the housing using the actuator.

  • Publication number: 20200117589
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for cloud memory sizing are disclosed. An initial database memory allocation is determined for the provisioning of a database server instance. Periodically, sizes of key database tables of the database server instance are measured and an upper and a lower bound ratio are determined based on the key database table sizes and a buffer pool size. The upper and lower bound ratios are used to determine a desired memory allocation from which a report is generated including an interface for generating an instance move action for re-provisioning the database server instance with the desired memory allocation.

  • Patent number: 10614064
    Abstract: The present approach assigns a code to each node class of a data tree modeling a database. The node class codes may be used to generate a node class path for each node class. This class path may be used as a discriminator to reference a given node class or portion of the tree including the class path and may be stored in a field of the database and/or cached. Use of the class path in query operations reduces the complexity of certain queries, thereby speeding up query performance.
