Abstract: A middleware processor provisioning process provisions a plurality of processors in a multi-processor environment. The processors themselves may be subdivided in to one or more partitions or processing instances for which a single processing queue is created and a single kernel thread is started. User processing requests are portioned and dispatched across the plurality of processing queues and are serviced by the corresponding kernel process, thereby efficiently using available processing resources while servicing the user processing requests in a desired manner.

Abstract: According to an embodiment of the present invention, a system assigns at least one workload a hard share quantity and at least one other workload a soft share quantity or a hard share quantity. The system allocates a resource to the workloads based on the hard share quantity and the soft share quantity of active workloads in a predefined interval. A hard share quantity indicates a maximum resource allocation and a soft share quantity enables allocation of additional available processor time. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for allocating a resource to workloads in substantially the same manner as described above.

Abstract: A monitoring of a server system during an execution of a server system processing logic, includes: during collection and storage of operational metrics by a given thread in a thread-local memory, determining that a checkpoint within the server system processing logic is reached; determining whether a threshold number of checkpoints have been encountered by the given thread; in response to the threshold number of checkpoints having been encountered, determining whether a threshold time interval since a last rollup of the collected operational metrics has been exceeded; and in response to the threshold time interval being exceeded, performing a rollup of the collected operational metrics from the thread-local memory to an accumulation point in a shared memory, where the accumulation point stores aggregated operational metrics from a plurality of threads.

Abstract: A method and system for improving access concurrency to information stored in at least one table in a relational database system is disclosed. The method comprises providing a data cache, which stores a portion of the at least one table. The data cache includes a plurality of cache entries, wherein each cache entry comprises a first data item, a second data item, and a cache entry state. The method further comprises retrieving from the at least one table and storing in a cache entry's first data item a representation of committed information for a user, and retrieving from the at least one table and storing in the cache entry's second data item a representation of changes applied to the committed information, but not yet committed in the database system.

Abstract: In a system for avoiding section collision for application server requests over a single database connection, the database server assigns query identifiers to each instance of the same cursor opened for the same processing level within an application, allowing multiple instances of the same cursor to be processed in parallel without section collision. The application server assigns a command source identifier to each statement sent over a single database connection to uniquely identify the application source of the statement. This applies for multiples of the same statement sent by different application sources within the same application, for a single statement containing multiple application sources, and for multiple statements from different applications multiplexed over a single database connection. These statements can be processed separately from and in parallel with the each other without section collision.

Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for data leak prevention. An information system, such as a database system, which has been configured for data leak protection in accordance with the present invention can include an IDS coupled to the information system and a data leak protection system configured to apply a data leak protection policy for result sets produced by the information system in response to a database query. The data leak protection policy can include a listing of data shapes and corresponding remedial measures. The data leak protection policy further can include consideration for metrics produced by the IDS.
