20140250119 | DOMAIN BASED KEYWORD SEARCH - A database keyword search technique that relies on a domain based storage infrastructure is disclosed. In operation, a keyword search string is processed to generate a set of search string permutations. Each string permutation specifies a different ordering of one or more portions of the search string. A domain based search process is then executed asynchronously for each string permutation. Each execution generates a search result set that identifies rows in the database that include data relevant to the string permutation. The results in each result set are scored and ranked based in part on the similarity between the string permutation and the search string provided by the user. The rankings determine which of the results are to be presented to the user. | 09-04-2014 |
20150113330 | DOMAIN CENTRIC TEST DATA GENERATION - A test data extraction and persistence technique that relies on a data domain based storage infrastructure is disclosed. In operation, a test data server receives a test data query that specifies selection parameters for selecting test data and any transformation operations to be performed on the test data. The test data server identifies domains associated with the selection parameters and traverses the tables in the database based on the identified domains to extract test data that satisfies the selection parameters. The test data server optionally performs transformation operations, such as masking operations, specified by the test data query on the extracted data. The identified domains are stored such that test data that satisfies the test data query may be extracted from the database repetitively without reevaluating the test data query each time. | 04-23-2015 |
