  • Patent number: 11949764
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that generate compressed metric data for digital metrics utilizing a graph-based compression dictionary and time slice compression. For instance, the disclosed systems can utilize a dynamically modifiable graph-based compression dictionary to generate compressed metric label identifiers for metric labels of digital metrics. The graph-based compression dictionary can include nodes and edges corresponding to metric label segments and metric label identifier values, respectively. The disclosed systems can traverse the graph-based compression dictionary using a metric label to determine the corresponding compressed metric label identifier. The disclosed systems can further generate delta compression values for the metric values of the digital metrics. For instance, the disclosed systems can compare metric values within a single time slice (e.g., a time stamp) to generate corresponding delta compression values.

  • Publication number: 20230067420
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for improving the efficiency and flexibility of implementing computer devices by intelligently generating a metric blocklist based on predicted utilization of digital metrics and deploying the metric blocklist at one or more computing devices to limit digital metric requests to distributed databases. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems monitor historical digital metric utilization and apply a prediction model to generate a metric blocklist of digital metrics that are not likely to be utilized by one or more metric requesting devices of a distributed computing system. The disclosed systems can deploy the metric blocklist to computing devices of a distributed computing system to efficiently limit digital requests, processing resources, bandwidth consumption, and storage load with regard to utilization of metric storage devices (e.g., time-series databases).
