  • Patent number: 11003648
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for loading data from a database into a task database, via a stage database. One exemplary method includes accessing a backup database where the backup database includes multiple flat files and where each of the multiple flat files includes data and having a filename. The method also includes appending, by a computing device, the filename of one of the multiple flat files to an index stored in the computing device and changing a global variable associated with a data loader for the one of the multiple flat files to the filename. The method then further includes loading the data from the one of the multiple flat files into a stage database in memory of the computing device and transferring the loaded data in the stage database to a task database, thereby making the data available to queries associated with tasks relying on the loaded data.

  • Publication number: 20170357966
    Abstract: A method for submitting data captured in a transaction message to a blockchain includes: storing account profiles, each including data related to a transaction account including a primary account number and fiat currency balance; receiving a transaction message including a specific primary account number, fiat transaction amount, and merchant identifier; adjusting the fiat currency balance in a specific account profile that includes the specific primary account number by the fiat transaction amount; generating a data message including a token identifier associated with the specific account profile, the fiat transaction amount, and the merchant identifier; and electronically transmitting the generated data message to a computing device operating as a node in a blockchain network.
