Abstract: A method for processing non-standardized data in a relational database may include identifying, within a sequence of operations forming a query pipeline for executing a query, a first operation ingesting a non-standardized data. In response to identifying the first operation ingesting the non-standardized data, a second operation may be inserted before the first operation. The non-standardized data may be output by a third operation preceding the first operation or a source external to the query pipeline. The second operation may serialize the non-standardized data for ingestion by the first operation, for example, by generating a relational table populated by the non-standardized data. The query may be executed by performing the sequence of operations included in the query pipeline. Related systems and computer program products are also provided.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for efficient shared bulk loading into optimized storage. One example method includes identifying a data set on a client to load to a server. Load steps that can be performed either on the client or the server are identified. Values for load factors are determined. Load rules are determined that are based on load factors and are for determining processing locations for the load steps. A processing location of either the client or the server is determined for each load step, based on the load rules. Load steps that have a processing location of the client are executed on the data set, on the client. The data set is transferred from the client to the server, over a network. Load steps that have a processing location of the server are executed on the data set, at the server.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for cache partitioning to accelerate concurrent workload performance of in-memory databases. An embodiment operates by storing a first bitmask, associating the first bitmask with a first processor core, setting a subset of the bits of the first bitmask, wherein the subset of the bits of the first bitmask represents a first portion of shared last-level cache, and wherein any part of the first bitmask excluding the subset of the bits of the first bitmask represents a second portion of the lowest-level cache, and disallowing eviction of any cache line in the second portion of the lowest-level cache by the first processor core.

Abstract: A crane, such as a bridge crane or gantry crane, having at least one horizontally extending crane girder, which is designed as a lattice girder having a plurality of braces and on which a crane trolley having a lifting device can be moved. At least some of the braces are planiform, and each of the planiform braces has a flat main surface, which extends transversely to a longitudinal direction of the crane girder. A first brace and a second brace form a brace pair and are arranged in an X-shape in relation to each other as viewed transversely to the longitudinal direction of the crane girder.

Abstract: A traveling crane includes a longitudinal beam displaceable on rails. A traveler having a hoisting winch with a cable drum is displaceable in a transverse direction, and is operable to wind a cable reeved through at least one lower block. The hoisting winch is displaceable relative to the traveler in a hoisting winch travel direction such that a cable run out point remains in one location relative to the longitudinal extent of the cable drum. Two winching hoists are provided which are displaceable transversely to the longitudinal beam with respective cable drums thereof being disposed parallel to and spaced from each other. A common cable can be wound up and down by the two cable drums, and the two cable drums include cable grooves running in opposite directions. The two cable drums are operable in the opposite direction of rotation for lifting and lowering a load.
