  • Patent number: 11544395
    Abstract: A system and method for providing transactional data privacy while maintaining data usability, including the use of different obfuscation functions for different data types to securely obfuscate the data, in real-time, while maintaining its statistical characteristics. In accordance with an embodiment, the system comprises an obfuscation process that captures data while it is being received in the form of data changes at a first or source system, selects one or more obfuscation techniques to be used with the data according to the type of data captured, and obfuscates the data, using the selected one or more obfuscation techniques, to create an obfuscated data, for use in generating a trail file containing the obfuscated data, or applying the data changes to a target or second system.

  • Patent number: 9047392
    Abstract: A system and method for performing real-time conversion of data which is present in the form of messages on JMS-compliant or other messaging systems into database transactions; which can then subsequently be applied to multiple heterogeneous databases or other systems. In accordance with an embodiment, the invention provides a means by which data can be read from messages in a messaging system, and converted to a set of database operations that are then stored as a persistent trail file. The operations can then be routed via a network and applied to target systems as required, for example to maintain a replicated set of information at one or more different or heterogeneous systems. The data in the message can be formatted in a variety of ways, for example, as fixed width, delimited, or XML data, and the system can be configured to convert this data as appropriate.

In accordance with an embodiment, the invention provides a means by which data can be read from messages, and converted to a set of database operations that are then stored as a persistent trail file (for example, as an Oracle GoldenGate trail file). The operations, as recorded in the trail file, can then be routed via a network and applied to target systems as required. In accordance with an embodiment, the data can be read in real-time from the messaging system, and written out as quickly as it can be consumed to the persistent trail files.

A first user interface area is presented to enable a user to define a data reference structure for one or more data sources from multiple disparate data sources, the one or more data sources containing data to be provided to the user. A second user interface area is presented to enable the user to create one or more data structures corresponding to the data reference structure and connected to the one or more data sources. A third user interface area is presented to enable the user to define application business logic to be performed on data in connection with the one or more data structures. A fourth user interface area is presented to enable the user to create presentation logic to display data in an output view. Finally, a fifth user interface area is presented to enable the user to define an action that triggers the application business logic.
