IPC Code(s): G06F16/23, G06F11/34
CPC Code(s): G06F16/2393
Abstract: a method for query execution includes configuring, by at least one hardware processor, a materialized table (mt) based on the query and a base table. the mt includes a lag duration indicating a maximum time period that a result of a prior refresh of the query on the base table can lag behind a current time instance. the method further includes generating a query plan for the query. the method further includes determining multiple sets of data processing operations included in the query plan. the method further includes generating a plurality of intermediate mts. the one or more intermediate mts hold an intermediate processing state for the multiple sets of data processing operations. the method further includes configuring a refresh of the mt based on the intermediate processing state for the multiple sets of data processing operations.
Inventor(s): Benoit Dageville of San Mateo CA (US) for snowflake inc., Ganeshan Ramachandran Iyer of Redmond WA (US) for snowflake inc., Unmesh Jagtap of San Mateo CA (US) for snowflake inc., Subramanian Muratidhar of Mercer Island WA (US) for snowflake inc.
IPC Code(s): G06F16/25, G06F16/22
CPC Code(s): G06F16/254
Abstract: techniques for configuring a managed event table (met) include detecting, by at least one hardware processor, a query for the met. the query received at a first computing node of a network-based database system. the method includes retrieving via an ingestion function configured at the first computing node, reformatted data from a dedicated storage location of a first process into the met. the reformatted data is based on log data associated with a second process. the first process and the second process are executing at a second computing node of the network-based database system. the method includes processing the query using the reformatted data in the met.

Stratton, JR. of Atlanta GA (US) for snowflake inc.
IPC Code(s): G06F21/62, G06F16/22, G06F16/2455
CPC Code(s): G06F21/6254
Abstract: embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a data clean room allowing secure data analysis across multiple accounts, without the use of third parties. each account may be associated with a different company or party. the data clean room may provide security functions to safeguard sensitive information. for example, the data clean room may restrict access to data in other accounts. the data clean room may also restrict which data may be used in the analysis and may restrict the output. the overlap data may be anonymized to prevent sensitive information from being revealed.

IPC Code(s): H04L9/40, G06F21/62
CPC Code(s): H04L63/0263
Abstract: a method for data sharing between cloud deployments is disclosed. a provider in a virtual private cloud (vpc) deployment generates a listing of data for sharing with a consumer in a public multi-tenant deployment. after creating a public account and transmitting a link associated with the listing to the consumer, the method responds to the consumer's selection of the link by automatically creating a secure shared area in the vpc deployment. the method includes replicating both a database and share object associated with the listing into the secure shared area as respective replicas. the replicated objects are then shared with the consumer account as data share objects, enabling the consumer to launch them in a consumer mounted database. the method concludes by enabling the consumer to perform database operations on the provider's data within the vpc deployment, ensuring secure and efficient data sharing between the cloud environments.
