Application: Database system with run-time query mode selection (Patent ID: US20230385280A1)
The patent filed by ForeScout Technologies Inc. describes a method for ingesting data to enable selection between a fast query mode and a low-cost query mode. The method involves receiving data from various sources, generating records, adding them to a record file, and including index metadata for each record. This metadata includes a path and an offset to identify the location of the record in a file. The process also includes saving the record file to a datastore and loading the records into a cloud database table. Additionally, the method allows for the selection of query processing modes based on conditions such as file size, record count, or write time, with options for fast query mode to minimize query time or low-cost query mode to reduce resource costs.
Furthermore, the patent includes claims for a computer-implemented method, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions, and a system for implementing the described data ingestion and query processing method. These claims detail the steps involved in receiving data, generating records, adding index metadata, saving records to a datastore, and loading them into a cloud database table. The method also includes conditions for starting a new record file based on predetermined limits and selecting query processing modes to optimize query performance or reduce costs. The system described in the patent includes a memory and a processing device to carry out the data ingestion and query processing steps outlined in the claims.
