Abstract: A data segment is encrypted to produce an encrypted data segment, and a data tag associated with the data segment is generated. The encrypted data segment is encoded to generate a set of encoded data slices. At least a read-threshold number of encoded data slices are required to reconstruct the encrypted data segment. A set of write slice requests, which includes the set of encoded data slices and the data tag, is transmitted to a DSN memory. A determination is made, based on the data tag, whether a first encoded data slice of the set of encoded data slices is a duplicate of a second encoded data slice already stored within the DSN memory. If it is a duplicate, rather of storing the first encoded data slice, a reference to a location of the second encoded data slice is stored.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a program that receives a selection of a data object relationship definition. The data object relationship definition specifies a plurality of data objects managed by a plurality of applications and a set of relationships between data objects in the plurality of data objects. The program sends each application in a first subset of the plurality of applications a request for instances of data objects in the plurality of data objects managed by the application. The program receives, from each application in the first subset of the plurality of applications, a list of a set of candidate instances of data objects. Based on the list of the sets of candidate instances of data objects, the program further determines a set of groups of instances of data objects. The program deletes a group of instances of data objects in the set of groups of instances of data objects.

Abstract: Content is captured and archived at an archive center (AC) and, depending upon records management (RM) policy, is managed by the AC or under RM control by a content server (CS). Both the AC and CS may be part of an enterprise content management system. The AC provides a user-friendly interface through which retention zones may be defined, and functionality for applying RM policy. The functionality can be triggered via a specific content property or through a retention zone under RM control. The RM control can be turned on or off from within the AC using the user-friendly interface. Archived content is not moved or duplicated. Rather, metadata and a link to the storage location are sent to the CS which, in turn, creates a content server document that is linked to the archived content. Only a portion of archived content is exposed to the CS through the AC.

Abstract: A tenant data store contains information associated with tenants of a cloud computing environment, including an indication that a first customer subscribed to an exclusive tenant that receives an upcoming version of runtime software. A notification system pushes a notification about the upcoming runtime to an integration service for the first customer. A tenant preview service may contain the upcoming version of runtime software, and a software update store may contain new integration scenario content (created and tested by the first customer) in connection with the upcoming version of runtime software. An integration content mapper determines, based on old and new integration scenario content metadata, if an automatic port of the new integration scenario content in the software update store should be automatically provided to a runtime node. If it should be automatically provided, the integration content mapper may use a software update tool to automatically deploy the new integration scenario content.

Abstract: A data model is derived from transaction data. The model is represented in a combination data structure for a tree and a hash table. The hash table provides direct access to leaves of the tree, each leaf comprises a frequency count for a particular unique basket of items detected in the transaction data. Mining the combination data structure does not require recursive traversal of the tree. Moreover, derivation is performed with just two passes on the transaction data, during each pass multiple concurrent reducer tasks handle a unique portion of the transaction data providing parallel processing during creation and derivation which improves the processor elapsed time to complete the combination data structure. Furthermore, updates to the data structure are incremental without requiring any additional passes on the original transaction data and without requiring full traversal of the tree. Output from the mining is provided as input to predictor services.

Abstract: Response delay associated with a state-based client-server application can be reduced with utilization of an application state server-side cache. A server caches data for a set of one or more possible states of a client-server application that may follow a current state of the application. The server rapidly responds to a client request with data that corresponds to an appropriate new state of the application in accordance with the application state server-side cache. The server determines that the application will transition to the appropriate new state from the current state of the application with the application state server-side cache based, at least in part, on an operation indicated by the client request.

Abstract: A retrieval-augmented code completion system uses the context of a partially-formed source code snippet of a source code program and a hint to predict the source code tokens needed to complete the partially-formed source code snippet. The hint is a source code segment that completes a semantically-similar source code segment of the partially-formed source code snippet. The hint is found in a retrieval source code database using a hybrid retrieval technique. A deep learning decoder model uses the context of the partially-formed source code snippet and the hint to predict the most likely candidate sequence of source code tokens to complete the partially-formed source code snippet.

Abstract: A branch of a main database is created, comprising a copy of the main database schema. A user edits the branch and requests that it be merged back into the main database. A schema diff is generated and used to determine differences between the main database and the edited branch. The merge is performed if it does not create a conflict. A second branch is created and edited by a second user. When the second user indicates to merge the second branch back into the main database, differences between the two branches are determined, relative to the main database. If merging the second branch back into the main database on top of the first branch does not create a conflict, a three-way merge is performed of the first branch, the second branch, and the version of the main database from which the first and second branches were generated.
