Patent number: 10936596Abstract: Dynamic selection of data sources for streaming dynamic data is described. A data streaming service receives a dynamic selection of a data source after the data streaming service begins executing, the dynamic selection of the data source including an identifier of a host of a multi-tenant database and an identifier of a tenant of multiple tenants storing data in the multi-tenant database. The data streaming service streams dynamic data from the data source to a data destination.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2017Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Mahalaxmi Sanathkumar, Yogesh Patel, Shaahin Mehdinezhad Rushan, William Victor Gray, William Edward Hackett, Shreedhar Sundaram, Rajkumar Pellakuru, Anjani Gupta, Chandra S.

Publication number: 20210037073Abstract: Embodiments regard transfer of data streaming services to provide continuous data flow. An embodiment of an apparatus includes a processor to process data for streaming to one or more organizations; and a memory to store data for streaming to the one or more organizations, wherein the apparatus is to provide a centralized work distribution service to track status of each of a plurality of data streams to the one or more organizations, and a plurality of nodes, each node being a virtual machine to stream one or more data streams to the one or more organizations, each node including a first daemon service to monitor connectivity of the node to dependency services for the node and, upon detecting a loss of connection to one or more of the dependency services, the node to discontinue ownership of the one or more data streams of the node and a second daemon service to poll the centralized work distribution service for data streams that are not assigned.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2020Publication date: February 4, 2021Inventors: Shreedhar Sundaram, Yogesh Patel, William Victor Gray, Shaahin Mehdinezhad Rushan, Mahalaxmi Sanathkumar, Anjani Gupta, Rajkumar Pellakuru, Bhaves Patel, William Edward Hackett

Patent number: 10671975Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating smart streaming of data between external systems and service providers in an on-demand services environment according to one embodiment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method comprises splitting, by a streaming server computing device (“streaming device”), a file including messages associated with multiple tenants in a multitenant environment based on growth of the file over a time-period. The method may further include grouping, by the streaming device, the messages into multiple files based on intelligence fields associated with one or more of the messages and the tenants, where each file of the multiple files corresponds to a tenant of the multiple tenants. The method may further include uploading, by the streaming device, the multiple files to a database device associated with a service provider and coupled to the streaming server device.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2018Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Anjani Gupta, William Victor Gray, Shaahin Mehdinezhad Rushan, Yogesh Patel, Kshama Thacker, Shreedhar Sundaram, Mahalaxmi Sanathkumar, Rajkumar Pellakuru, William Edward Hackett

Patent number: 10455264Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to bulk data extraction systems. In some embodiments, a streaming server system may receive a first request, from a data storage system, that is sent prior to initiation of a bulk data extraction for a first group of users. In response to the first request, the streaming server system may receive, from the data storage system, a first notification message that includes a particular event identifier for a most recent data event generated at the data storage system. The streaming server system may receive, from the data storage system, those messages associated with the bulk data extraction for the first group. Subsequent to completion of the bulk data extraction, the streaming server system may send, to the data storage system, a request to subscribe to notification messages for data events associated with the first group.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2018Date of Patent: October 22, 2019Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Yogesh Patel, Mahalaxmi Sanathkumar, Shaahin Mehdinezhad Rushan, Bhaves Patel, Shreedhar Sundaram, Rajkumar Pellakuru, William Edward Hackett

Publication number: 20190238605Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to verifying the sequence of messages sent via data streaming systems. In some embodiments, a streaming server system may receive a plurality of messages associated with events at a data storage system that is accessible to various groups of users. In some embodiments, each of the plurality of messages may include an event identifier for an associated event and a group-specific sequence number. The streaming server system may detect, based on group-specific sequence numbers included in a set of messages, that a particular message for a particular group has not been received. The streaming server system may send, to the data storage system, a request for the particular message and, in response to the request, may receive the particular message from the data storage system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2018Publication date: August 1, 2019Inventors: Yogesh Patel, Mahalaxmi Sanathkumar, Shaahin Mehdinezhad Rushan, William Victor Gray, Bhaves Patel, Shreedhar Sundaram, Rajkumar Pellakuru, William Edward Hackett, Avital Arora
