IPC Code(s): G06F16/22
Abstract: the present disclosure relates to a system and techniques for resolving dangling references resulting from a dependency relationship between computing resource objects uncovered during a harvesting process. in embodiments, a harvester application adds computing resource objects associated with a client to a resource collection as those computing resource objects are identified. dependencies are identified as each computing resource object is added to the resource collection, which are resolved only if the computing resource objects associated with those dependencies have already been added to the resource collection. if the computing resource objects associated with the dependencies have not already been added to the resource collection, then the dependency is added to an observer pool. observer modules are configured to check each computing resource object as it is processed during the harvest process in order to match those computing resource objects to unresolved dependencies.

IPC Code(s): G06F16/23
Abstract: a lock-free reservation mechanism is provided. when a transaction issues an update that affects a value in a “reservable column” of a row, the database server does not immediately obtain a lock that covers the row. instead, the database server adds a reservation to a reservation journal. at the time the transaction commits, a lock is obtained and the requested update is made. in one implementation, before adding the reservation to the reservation journal, the database server determines whether making the update would violate any constraints involving the reservable column. in one implementation, the constraint check not only takes into account the current value of the data item that is being updated and the amount of the update, but also pre-existing reservations in the reservation journal that affect the same data item.

IPC Code(s): G06F16/23
Abstract: a database-native lock-free reservation infrastructure is used to provide automatic compensation for the reservable column updates made by successful local transactions (or microservice actions) that are part of a saga that is being aborted. the automatic compensation is achieved by tracking the reservable column updates in a reservations journal, within the database, during the execution of the local transaction and remembering them beyond the commit of the local transaction until the finalization of the saga that the transaction is a part of. if the saga aborts, then the database server automatically uses the information retained in the reservations journal to compensate for the changes made by the committed transactions that were part of the saga.
20240126746.MULTI-LOB CACHING AND LOB WRITING_simplified_abstract_(oracle international corporation)

IPC Code(s): G06F16/23, G06F16/22
Abstract: lob cache swapping is reduced by multi-lob writing. under multi-lob writing, information that tracks changes made by a database transaction to multiple lobs is retained in a lob staging buffer after one or more lob switches. thus, at commit time, changes to multiple lobs in a column may be staged in the lob staging cache, thereby enabling the changes to be made in contiguous data blocks for all the multiple lobs. storing lobs in the same column in this way improves clustering, thereby improving database performance. in addition, lobs inserted or updated in the same database transaction are often related and accessed together within database transactions and/or query accesses. clustering the lob content of such related lobs allows the lobs to be accessed more efficiently.

IPC Code(s): G06F16/2453, G06F16/22
Abstract: techniques for accelerating query execution by optimizing data transfer between storage nodes and database nodes are provided. in one technique, a compute node receives a database statement and transmits a set of one or more selection criteria associated with the database statement to a storage node. based on the database statement, the storage node retrieves a set of data blocks from storage. each data block comprises multiple rows of an index-organized table (iot), each row comprising a key section and a non-key section. the storage node applies the set of selection criteria to a data block, resulting in a modified data block. the storage node generates a modified header data for the modified data block and transmits the modified data block to the compute node.

IPC Code(s): G06F16/2453
Abstract: a new type of table join operation, outer semi join (osj), is provided, which can be used by an optimizer layer and an execution layer of a database management system (dbms). osj combines the semantics of both left outer-join and semi-join. the concept of an anti-join marker (ajm) is also introduced, which specifies whether a matching row was not found between joined tables for each result row in an osj operation. the osj operation supports unnesting of a class of disjunctive any, all, exists, not exists, in, and not in subqueries for execution plan optimization. the disjunction may contain filter predicates. for unnesting, osj avoids the need of using a distinct operator on the right table and also supports using inequality (e.g. >, >=, <, <=) in connecting or correlating conditions of subqueries, rather than being limited to equality only.

Abstract: a consensus protocol-based replication approach is provided. for each change operation performed by a leader server on a copy of the database, the leader server creates a replication log record and returns a result to the client. the leader does not wait for consensus for the change operation from the followers. for a commit, the leader creates a commit log record and waits for consensus. thus, the leader executes database transactions asynchronously, performs replication of change operations asynchronously, and performs replication of transaction commits synchronously.

Abstract: a consensus protocol-based replication approach is provided. chunks are grouped into replication units (rus) to optimize replication efficiency. chunks may be assigned to rus based on load and replication throughput. splitting and merging rus do not interrupt concurrent user workload or require routing changes. transactions spanning chunks within an ru do not require distributed transaction processing. each replication unit has a replication factor (rf), which refers to the number of copies/replicas of the replication unit, and an associated distribution factor (df), which refers to the number of servers taking over the workload from a failed leader server. rus may be placed in rings of servers, where the number of servers in a ring is equal to the replication factor, and quiescing the workload can be restricted to a ring of servers instead of the entire database.

Abstract: a lead-sync log record is used to synchronize the replication logs of follower shards to the leader shard. in response to a failure to determine that there is a consensus for a database transaction commit operation after a shard server becomes a new leader, the new leader shard performs a sync operation using the lead-sync log record to synchronize replication logs of the follower shards to the replication log of the new leader. a shard server identifies a first transaction having a first log record but not a post-commit log record in the replication log, defines a recovery window in the replication log starting at the first log record of the identified first transaction and ending at the lead-sync log record, identifies a set of transactions to be recovered, and performs a recovery action on the set of transactions to be recovered.
