Abstract: A B?-tree associated with a file system on a storage volume includes a hierarchy of nodes. Each node includes a buffer portion that can be characterized by a fixed maximum allowable size to store key-value pairs as messages in the buffer. Messages can be initially buffered in the root node of the B?-tree, and flushed to descendent children from the root node. Messages stored in the buffers can be indexed using a B+-tree data structure. As the B+-tree data structure in a buffer grows (due to receiving flushed messages) and shrinks (due to messages being flushed), disk blocks can be allocated from the storage volume to increase the actual size of the buffer and deallocated from the buffer to reduce the actual size of the buffer.

Abstract: The routing of commands within a database cluster is managed by a proxy server. The database cluster is comprised of a master database and at least one read-replica database. When the proxy server receives a database command, the proxy server determines whether the command is capable of being translated into an alternate command that can be executed on the read-replica database. If the command is not capable of being reliably translated, the database command is executed on the master database. If the command is capable of being executed on a read-replica database, the proxy server translates the database command into an alternate command that is compatible with the read-replica database, and executes the alternate command on the read-replica database. If results are returned from the read-replica database, the results may be converted into a format produced by the master database.

Abstract: Routing data is copied from a primary data store to a local data store of a computing device. As the routing data is being copied by the computing device, changes to the data continue to occur. After copying all or a portion of the data, the computing device uses a value of a global sequence number (GSN) to determine if mutations have been made to the primary data. The routing data in the local data store is not consistent with the routing data stored in the primary data store when the value of the GSN is larger after the copying of the routing data as compared to the initial value of the GSN when the copying started. When changes have been made to the data, the computing device integrates the changes into the local data store before beginning routing operations.

A processor extracts values from the first transaction based on the determined preexisting pattern. A processor calculates the mathematical model using the values from the first transaction and the values from the preexisting pattern.
