Abstract: According to examples, a compressed memory dump apparatus generates one or more compressed dump files from a virtual address space (VAS) of a target process. Memory regions identified from the VAS are grouped into memory buckets so that a memory bucket includes respective memory regions. Parallel threads are spawned to execute parallel dumping operations. The parallel dumping operations include reading the memory regions, compressing the memory buckets to generate compressed chunks, and writing the compressed chunks to the dump files. A compressed memory dump parser module can be used to retrieve the original memory content from the compressed dump files.

Abstract: Implementing a safe driver that can support high throughput and low latency devices. The method includes receiving a hardware message from a hardware device. The method further includes delivering the hardware message to one or more driver processes executing in user mode using a zero-copy to allow the one or more driver processes to support high throughput and low latency hardware devices.

Abstract: Implementations of various technologies for compiling a query. In one implementation, the memory consumption of the query may be monitored. If the amount of memory consumed by the query exceeds one or more gateway thresholds, then the query may be processed to acquire one or more gateways. The query may then be compiled as having acquired the one or more gateways.

Abstract: Caching architecture that facilitates translation between schema data and relational structures. A schema translation component consumes schema data (e.g., XML schema data) having a schema structure. The schema structure is shredded into tables. A validation component interfaces to a memory management interface to facilitate loading only the necessary components to perform instance validation. During validation, only parts of the schema that are used are loaded and cached. A schema cache stores the in-memory representation of the schema optimized for instance validation. The schema components are loaded from metadata into the cache memory as read-only objects such that multiple users can use the in-memory objects for validation.
