  • Patent number: 11983286
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data processing are described. Some database systems may implement data processing permits to manage data access. A database system may use encryption schemes to tie permits to data (e.g., cryptographically ensuring that the system follows data regulations). To support queries for a database implementing such encryption schemes, the database may implement a proxy. When the system receives a query, the database proxy may intercept and transform the query based on the encryption schema of the database. The database proxy may execute the transformed query at the database, receive encrypted query results in response, and decrypt the results for use by the querying application. Additionally, the system may access relevant data processing permits to support querying operations. For example, the system may use permits when transforming the query, executing the query in the database, preparing query results for the querying application, or any combination thereof.

  • Patent number: 11875167
    Abstract: A method includes: accessing a set of hardware parameters characterizing an embedded device; identifying a set of supported container functions based on the set of hardware parameters; accessing a selection of container functions; identifying a set of selected container functions based on the selection of container functions and the set of supported container functions; generating a hardware abstraction layer (HAL) including a set of libraries supporting the set of selected container functions; generating a container runtime environment (CRE) configured to execute, at the embedded device, a containerized application via the HAL, the containerized application including the set of selected container functions; installing the HAL and the CRE onto the embedded device; installing the containerized application onto the embedded device via the CRE; and at the embedded device, executing the containerized application via the CRE and the HAL.
