Abstract: Continuously blocking query result data for a remote query is provided. Included is: creating a first connection, using a communications network, between a database server and a client. At least one secondary connection is created, using the communications network, between the database server and the client, based on the database server supporting a continuous block fetch protocol. Using the at least one secondary connection, the database server receives at least one cursor-based fetch query. The database server generates continuous blocks of result data, based on the received at least one cursor-based fetch query and sends to the client, using the at least one secondary connection, the continuous blocks of result data.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention enables manipulation of data on a remote server and ensures uniqueness of data identifiers in a multi-tier environment, where a database client communicates through one or more intermediate servers to reach the target server containing the remote database. In particular, a client system transmits a query to the target server via a gateway system and receives a handle or data reference and a query identification for subsequent manipulation of data residing on that target server. A new query identification is generated by the gateway system and mapped with the query identification of the intended target server. When the client system transmits a query with the gateway query identification, the gateway system performs a lookup operation to identify the corresponding target server and subsequently forwards the query and target server query identification to the identified target server for processing.

Abstract: A method and system for connecting a client to a database managed by a network of computer systems having a plurality of database management system (DBMS) members includes providing a shared network address for the plurality of DBMS members, which is used by the client to connect to an active DBMS member of the plurality of DBMS members. Through the aspects of the present invention, the shared network address allows the client to connect, via a network router, to any one of the plurality of DBMS members so long as one member is active. Once the client is connected to one member, the member sends to the client a list of all active members and their respective workloads. The list also includes member-specific network addresses corresponding to each member so that the client can distribute work evenly across the active members and also perform a resynchronization process with a DBMS member after a first connection with the DBMS member has been interrupted.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and system for connecting a client to a database managed by a network of computer systems having a plurality of database management system (DBMS) members. The method and system includes providing a shared network address for the plurality of DBMS members, which is used by the client to connect to an active DBMS member of the plurality of DBMS members.
