Patent number: 11657057Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for annotating a metadata catalog in a data intake and query system based on a query received by the data intake and query system. The metadata catalog can store information about datasets associated with the data intake and query system, including dataset configuration records of the datasets, which can be used to process queries for execution by the data intake and query system. The data intake and query system can receive a query identifying a set of data to be processed and a manner of processing the set of data. The data intake and query system can parse the query to identify datasets and/or data fields associated with the query. Based on the identified datasets and/or fields, the data intake and query system can generate one or more annotations, and use the annotations to update the metadata catalog.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2022Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Alexander Douglas James, Scott Calvert, Manu Jose, Andrew Peters, Christopher Madden Pride, Arun Ramani

Patent number: 11620288Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for mapping search nodes to a search head in a data intake and query system based on a tenant identifier in order to execute a query received by the data intake and query system. The mapping may allow same or similar search nodes to be used to execute queries that are associated with a particular tenant identifier, in order to take advantage of caching and local data stored with those search nodes. In some cases, search nodes can be mapped based on the tenant identifier using a hashing algorithm, such as a consistent hashing algorithm.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2022Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Alexandros Batsakis, Scott Calvert, Alexander Douglas James, Bei Li, Ashish Mathew, James Monschke, Sogol Moshtaghi, Christopher Madden Pride, Xiaowei Wang

Patent number: 11392578Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for annotating a metadata catalog in a data intake and query system based on a detected change to the metadata catalog. The metadata catalog can store information about datasets associated with the data intake and query system, including dataset configuration records of the datasets, which can be used to process queries for execution by the data intake and query system. Based on a detected change to the metadata catalog, such as a manual or system annotation, the data intake and query system can generate additional annotations for the metadata catalog and use the annotations to update the metadata catalog.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Alexander Douglas James, Scott Calvert, Manu Jose, Andrew Peters, Christopher Madden Pride, Arun Ramani

Patent number: 11157497Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for dynamically assigning a search head or search nodes in a data intake and query system for a query received by the data intake and query system. Existing search heads and search nodes can periodically report their status to the data intake and query system, which can use that information to help determine the need to provision additional search heads and search nodes. The data intake and query system can receive a query identifying a set of data to be processed and a manner of processing the set of data. The data intake and query system can use the status information for existing search heads and search nodes to dynamically assign a search head and search nodes for the query. Dynamically assigning the search head and search nodes in this manner may provide many benefits, including improved load balancing and resource utilization.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2019Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Alexandros Batsakis, Scott Calvert, Alexander Douglas James, Bei Li, Ashish Mathew, James Monschke, Sogol Moshtaghi, Christopher Madden Pride, Xiaowei Wang

Publication number: 20210131041Abstract: A lightweight universal panel mat made of plastic or elastomeric material and having a first section that provides a relatively flat, textured or structured top surface to facilitate movement over the mat and a second section having geometry that includes a plurality of cells having top surfaces that support the first section. The panel mats have first, second, third and fourth sides that are configured to matingly engage or connect to the second, third, fourth and first sides, respectively. The connection can be by insertion or snap-locking of one side to another, or by the use of fastening elements that more securely holds the sides together. Thus, similarly configured panel mats can be connected by interlocking to form a temporary support surface, deck, walkway or roadway. Additional side ramps and adapters can be used to facilitate installation of the mats and access to the upper surfaces of the joined mats.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2021Publication date: May 6, 2021Inventors: Joe PENLAND, JR., Scott CALVERT, Don COUVILLON
