  • Patent number: 11921677
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to sharing namespaces across file system clusters. A file in a spoke file system may be determined based on a command provided to the spoke file system such that the file may be associated with an inode mask. Data blocks associated with the file may be determined based on the command and the inode mask such that the data blocks may be absent from the spoke file system. Requests for leases may be generated based on the absent data blocks such that each lease request corresponds to a portion of the absent data blocks Employing the leases provided by a hub file system to: copy the absent data blocks from the hub file system where each portion of absent data blocks may be associated with a lease; updating the inode mask to include the leases and each copied portion of absent blocks.

  • Patent number: 11537568
    Abstract: A system for processing database data includes an interface and a processor. The interface is configured to receive a query for the database data comprising a date range and a data selection criterion. The processor is configured to determine a set of fields of the database data corresponding to a most recent date of the date range; determine a subset of the set of fields of the database data specified by the data selection criterion; determine a set of transformations, where each transformation of the set of transformations corresponds to a field of the subset and a sub-range of the date range; transform the database data to determine transformed database data using the set of transformations; and select data from the transformed database data using the data selection criterion to determine a query response.

  • Patent number: 11410467
    Abstract: The present invention is directed towards an electronic ticket suitable for providing entry to an event. The electronic ticket is capable of being stored, in electronic format, on a mobile user device. The electronic ticket comprises a dynamic entry code for the event such that the dynamic entry code is transitionable from an inoperable state to a functional state, whereby entry to the event is only possible when the dynamic entry code has been transitioned to the functional state. The dynamic entry code is a visual code which is non-readable by humans and is stored in a memory of the mobile user device, such that the inoperable state of the dynamic entry code prohibits the visual code from being displayed by the mobile user device and the functional state of the dynamic entry code permits the visual code to be displayed by the mobile user.

  • Patent number: 10936538
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to managing data in a file system. A query may be provided to determine characteristics associated with a file system and a sampling model. The sampling model may be employed to determine objects in the file system based on a traversal of the file system. The sampling model may be employed to determine metrics associated with the alternate data streams (ADSs) included in the objects such that each of the objects that includes a separate main data stream and the ADSs may be associated with data blocks and the ADSs may each be associated with other data blocks. The sampling model and the query may be employed to sample the objects to provide partial results such that the sampling may be distributed between the objects based on the sampling model and the metrics. A result to the query may be provided based on the partial results.

  • Patent number: 10936551
    Abstract: Embodiments are direct to managing file systems. Alternate data streams (ADSs) of an object in a file system may be modified based on a request from a client and metrics associated with the ADSs may be modified. Values for reconcile fields associated with the object may be set based on the modified metrics such that the object with the modified ADSs may be included in a reconcile list. And, such that an acknowledgment of the request may be provided to the client. A reconcile engine may determine a parent object of the object. The object may be reconciled and the parent object may be placed on the reconcile list for reconciling in turn.

  • Patent number: 10614241
    Abstract: Managing data in a file system with a verification engine that may obtain a user identifier associated with a user, an object identifier, and a target object. The verification engine may determine target identities associated with two or more file system protocols based on the user identifier. The verification engine may determine permission entries associated with the two or more file system protocols associated and the target object. The verification engine may employ the target identities and the permission entries to directly verify access rights to the target object for the user. Accordingly, the verification engine may provide a report that includes the target identities, the permission entries, or the access rights.

  • Patent number: 10460122
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to managing data in a file system. A file system engine provides a file system that includes file system objects that may be accessible by two or more clients that use different native permission schemes. And, a permissions engine may determine map rules based on characteristics of a request to access request a file. The permission engine may execute the one or more map rules to provide platform permission values based on the native permission values. The permission engine may compare requested platform permission values to the platform permission values associated with the file. The permission engine may provide the access rights to the file based on an affirmative result of the comparison.
