  • Publication number: 20240103896
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for scaling a resource of a Database as a Service (DBaaS) cluster in a cloud platform. User service requests from a service cluster to be processed by the DBaaS cluster are received. A first set of tracing data is generated by a service mesh, which facilitates service-to-service communication between the service cluster and the DBaaS cluster, from the user service requests. A second set of tracing data is generated by the DBaaS cluster from handling the user service requests. A dependency tree is then generated to discover application relationships to identify potential bottlenecks in nodes of the DBaaS cluster based on these sets of tracing data. The pod(s) of a DBaaS node are then scaled based on the dependency tree, which is used in part, to predict the utilization of the resources of the DBaaS node identified as being a potential bottleneck.

  • Patent number: 11914573
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for relational database locks based on columns. Database transactions may be targeted to specific columns of one or more records, instead of the entire row for those records, using primary keys. Column locks on specific keys are stored separately than column locks on ranges of keys, which are both checked when requesting a new column lock for either a single key or a range of keys. When a threshold number of columns for a given record, or range of records/keys, have been locked, the column locks for that record, or range of records, can be combined into a single row level lock to reduce resource costs for maintaining multiple concurrent locks.
