PORTABLE BINARY FILES FOR CLIENT SIDE EXECUTION OF FEDERATED APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240054027 titled 'PORTABLE BINARY FILES FOR CLIENT SIDE EXECUTION OF FEDERATED APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for data processing, specifically focusing on a federation management service that handles multiple data sources as inputs into a federated application programming interface (API). The service uses metadata inputs to define target schemas and transformations for computed fields, with a runtime service computing the values of these fields. The federated API is then generated from the data sources, including the computed fields.

  • The patent application describes a system for managing multiple data sources in a federated API.
  • Metadata inputs are used to define target schemas and transformations for computed fields.
  • A runtime service computes the values of computed fields based on the metadata inputs.
  • The federated API is generated from the data sources, including the computed fields.

Potential Applications

  • Data integration platforms
  • Federated data analytics systems
  • Multi-source data processing tools

Problems Solved

  • Managing multiple data sources in a unified API
  • Defining target schemas and transformations for computed fields
  • Computing values of computed fields from different data sources

Benefits

  • Simplified data processing and integration
  • Improved data consistency and accuracy
  • Enhanced efficiency in handling multiple data sources


Original Abstract Submitted

methods, systems, and devices for data processing are described. a federation management service may receive a user input indicating multiple data sources as federation inputs into federated application programming interface (api). the one or more data sources may have a first metadata input that defines a target schema for a computed field and a second metadata input that defines a transformation for computing a value for the computed field from a data source schema to the target schema for the computed field. a runtime service of the federation management service may compute the value of the computed field using the second metadata input. the federation management service may generate the federated api from the data sources, where the federated api includes the computed field.
