Patent number: 12259991Abstract: Methods of referencing row access policy (RAP) protected mapping tables in a RAP for a data table are disclosed herein. An example method of referencing a mapping table in a data table using nested RAP includes defining, by a processing device, a first access policy for the mapping table to control access by specific users or under specific conditions. The processing device further defines a second access policy attached to the data table referencing the mapping table. The processing device in response to a query, executes the second access policy of the data table to provide a response or operation of data associated with the data table and the mapping table. Executing the second access policy invokes executing the first access policy of the mapping table. The executing of both the second access policy of the data table and the first access policy of the mapping table are recorded.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2023Date of Patent: March 25, 2025Assignee: Snowflake Inc.Inventors: Raja Suresh Krishna Balakrishnan, Jashua Gupta, Jian Xu

Patent number: 12248448Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for configuring integrity constraints (including a check constraint) and row violation logging using error tables. An example method includes decoding a query received at a network-based database system. The query includes a command to perform an operation on a base table. An integrity constraint associated with the base table is retrieved. The integrity constraint specifies a desired configuration for the base table. A verification of the integrity constraint is performed to detect erroneous data of the base table that violates the desired configuration. The erroneous data is input into an error table that is configured as a nested object of the base table. A notification that the erroneous data is available in the error table is generated and output.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2023Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: Snowflake Inc.Inventors: Raja Suresh Krishna Balakrishnan, Ganeshan Ramachandran Iyer, David Schultz, Jian Xu

Publication number: 20240427924Abstract: Systems and methods for managing column hiding are provided. The systems and methods receive, from a client device, a query associated with a table. The systems and methods determine an access restriction associated with the client device. The systems and methods identify a column of the table that is restricted by the access restriction associated with the client device. In response to identifying the column of the table that is restricted by the access restriction associated with the client device, the systems and methods provide a result of the query that excludes data corresponding to the column.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 3, 2024Publication date: December 26, 2024Inventors: Raja Suresh Krishna Balakrishnan, Khalid Zaman Bijon, Subramanian Muralidhar, David Schultz, Jian Xu

Publication number: 20240028591Abstract: A data platform that implements memoizable functions for database objects. The data platform detects a first execution of a memoizable function and generates a first key based on metadata of one or more database objects operated on by the memoizable function and generates a first result for the memoizable function based on the one or more database objects. The data platform detects a second execution of the memoizable function and generates a second key based on the metadata of the one or more database objects operated on by the memoizable function. When the first key and the second key are equal, the data platform reuses the first result of the memoizable function. When the first key and second key do not match, the data platform generates a second result for the second execution of the memoizable function.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Raja Suresh Krishna Balakrishnan, Thierry Cruanes, Yujie Li, Subramanian Muralidhar, David Schultz, Jiaqi Yan

Publication number: 20230401601Abstract: Described are a system, method, and computer program product for generating a synthetic control group. The method includes receiving transaction data associated a first set of transaction accounts in a first time period and generating a synthetic control group including a subset of transaction accounts. The method also includes determining, for each transaction account of the synthetic control group, a propensity score representative of a likelihood of said transaction account being associated with a test group, and a predictive spending score for a second time period. The method further includes balancing the synthetic control group and altering at least one operational parameter of a computer-implemented advertisement program to be executed in a second time period based on the transaction data and the synthetic control group. The method further includes executing the computer-implemented advertisement program in the second time period based on the at least one operational parameter that was altered.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2023Publication date: December 14, 2023Inventors: Pulkit Aggarwal, Paul Max Payton, Lace Cheung, Suresh Krishna Vaidyanathan
