SERVERLESS COMPUTING-BASED, CONTINUOUS GATEWAY WATCH FOR DATA CHANGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17821890 titled 'SERVERLESS COMPUTING-BASED, CONTINUOUS GATEWAY WATCH FOR DATA CHANGE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a system for continuous monitoring of a data store for changes, using serverless computing.
- The gateway interface receives a request to monitor the data store for changes.
- A serverless setup service is invoked to establish a connection between the gateway interface and the data store.
- When a data change indication is received from the data store, a serverless message process service is invoked to transform the indication into a message for the user system.
- The serverless message process service terminates after sending the message to the user system.
Potential Applications
- Real-time data monitoring and notification systems
- Automated data synchronization processes
- Event-driven architecture for data processing
Problems Solved
- Ensures continuous monitoring of data store for changes
- Efficient handling of data change notifications
- Scalable and cost-effective solution using serverless computing
Benefits
- Real-time updates on data changes
- Reduced latency in detecting and responding to data changes
- Scalable and flexible architecture for monitoring data stores
Original Abstract Submitted
A serverless computing-based, continuous gateway watch of a data store for data change process is provided. The process includes the gateway interface of the computing environment receiving a watch request from a user system to monitor the data store for data change. Based on receiving the watch request, the gateway interface invokes a serverless setup service to establish a connection between the gateway interface and the data store of the computing environment to be monitored for data change. Based on receiving, at the gateway interface, a data change indication from the data store, the gateway interface invokes a serverless message process service to mutate the data change indication from the data store into a mutated data change message indicative of a data change at the data store for return to the user system pursuant to the watch request, with the serverless message process service terminating thereafter.
