Patent number: 12360999Abstract: In one embodiment, a device stores, in a database, relationship metadata indicative of an entry in one data field in the database being derived from that of another data field in the database. The device receives a structured database query that includes an identifier for a particular data field and a lineage keyword that requests a data lineage of the particular data field. The device executes the structured database query on the database to generate a data lineage report for the particular data field by tracing the relationship metadata associated with the particular data field to one or more related data fields. The device provides the data lineage report for display. The data lineage report includes information regarding the one or more related data fields.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2022Date of Patent: July 15, 2025Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Sushama Shroff, Reinaldo de Azevedo Penno Filho, Tal Maoz

Publication number: 20250055751Abstract: A method for unjoining and rejoining clusters of computing nodes in edge site computing networks to reduce the impact of interruption to connectivity between computing nodes is presented. The method includes accessing a cluster of computing nodes executing on an edge site computing network. The cluster of computing nodes includes a plurality of follower computing nodes and a leader computing node. The method further includes detecting an interruption to connectivity established between the leader computing node and one or more of the plurality of follower computing nodes. In response to detecting the interruption to connectivity, the method includes bifurcating the cluster of computing nodes into a first subcluster of computing nodes and a second subcluster of computing nodes.
