PROVIDING DATABASE PERFORMANCE REPORT IN RESTRICTED ENVIRONMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18733553 titled 'PROVIDING DATABASE PERFORMANCE REPORT IN RESTRICTED ENVIRONMENT

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes techniques for generating a database performance report in a restricted access environment, specifically for a database hosted on a cloud computing platform.

  • Stateless authentication is used to obtain administrative credentials from a second database.
  • Database performance metrics are obtained from the first database using the administrative credentials.
  • A database performance report is generated based on the collected metrics.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Use of stateless authentication for obtaining administrative credentials.
  • Generation of database performance reports for cloud-hosted databases.
  • Secure access to database performance metrics in a restricted environment.

Potential Applications: The technology can be applied in various industries where cloud-based databases are utilized, such as finance, healthcare, and e-commerce.

Problems Solved: The technology addresses the challenge of accessing and analyzing database performance metrics in a secure and restricted environment.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced security for accessing database performance metrics.
  • Improved monitoring and optimization of database performance.
  • Efficient generation of performance reports for cloud-hosted databases.

Commercial Applications: The technology can be used by cloud service providers, IT companies, and businesses relying on cloud databases to monitor and optimize database performance securely.

Prior Art: Readers can explore prior art related to database performance monitoring tools, cloud computing security protocols, and stateless authentication methods.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about advancements in cloud database performance monitoring tools, security protocols, and authentication methods.

Questions about database performance monitoring: 1. How does stateless authentication enhance security in accessing database performance metrics? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology for businesses relying on cloud databases?


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques for providing a database performance report in a restricted access environment are disclosed. In some embodiments, a computer system performs a method comprising: receiving, from a computing device of a user, a request to generate a database performance report for a first database that is hosted on a cloud computing platform, the request including a service key; obtaining administrative credentials from a second database using stateless authentication and the service key; obtaining one or more database performance metrics of the first database from the first database using the administrative credentials; and generating the database performance report based on the one or more database performance metrics.
