Patent number: 11928157Abstract: A constraint system enforces projection constraints on data values stored in specified columns of a shared dataset when queries are received by a database system. A projection constraint identifies that the data in a column may be restricted from being projected (e.g., presented, read, outputted) in an output to a received query, while allowing specified operations to be performed on the data and a corresponding output to be provided. For example, the projection constraint may indicate a context for a query that triggers the constraint, such as based on the user that submitted the query. Enforcing projection constraints on queries received at the database system allows for data to be shared and used anonymously by entities to perform various operations without the need to tokenize the data.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2022Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: Snowflake Inc.Inventors: Khalid Zaman Bijon, Thierry Cruanes, Simon Holm Jensen, Allison Waingold Lee, Daniel N.

Publication number: 20230409639Abstract: A system for enforcing projection constraints on data values stored in specified variables of a shared dataset of a cloud data platform. A request is received from a first account of the cloud data platform that identifies a first operation to be performed on the shared dataset. A first set of data, including data accessed from a first variable, is accessed from the shared dataset to use in performing the first operation. A projection constraint policy attached to the first variable of the shared dataset is determined, and the projection constraint policy is further determined to be enforced based on the request. Based on the first set of data and the first operation, an output to the first request is generated.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: Khalid Zaman Bijon, Thierry Cruanes, Simon Holm Jensen, Allison Waingold Lee, Daniel N.

Patent number: 11709837Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for performing a geospatial-function join using an implied interval join. In an embodiment, a database platform receives a query that includes a geospatial-function join, which applies a geospatial-function predicate to a first geography data object of a first relation and a second geography data object of a second relation. The database platform processes the first and second relations through an interval join that applies an interval-join predicate that is implied by the geospatial-function predicate. The database platform obtains query results at least in part by implementing a filter that applies the geospatial-function predicate to an output of the interval join, and outputs the query results.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2021Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Snowflake Inc.Inventors: Matthias Carl Adams, Simon Holm Jensen, Spyridon Triantafyllis

Patent number: 11514047Abstract: In an embodiment, a database platform receives query instructions for a query on a database, where the query instructions include instructions for a geospatial-function join that includes a geospatial-function predicate. The database platform generates a query-execution plan based on the query instructions, including replacing the geospatial-function join with one or more interval joins that each include one or more predicates implied by the geospatial-function predicate. The database platform inserts, into the query-execution plan above the one or more interval joins, a filter operator that applies the geospatial-function predicate. The database platform obtains results of the query at least in part by executing the query-execution plan, and returns the query results in response to the query.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2021Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: Snowflake Inc.Inventors: Matthias Carl Adams, Simon Holm Jensen, Spyridon Triantafyllis
