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 records are then saved to a datastore and loaded into a cloud database table. Additionally, the method includes conditions for starting a new record file based on file size, record count, or write time, and selecting a query processing mode based on cost estimation or machine learning.

The patent further details a computer-implemented method stored on a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and a system for implementing the described data ingestion process. The system includes a memory and a processing device that performs the steps of receiving data, generating records, adding them to a record file, adding index metadata, saving to a datastore, and loading into a cloud database table. The processing device also determines conditions for starting a new record file and selecting a query processing mode. This innovative method allows for efficient data ingestion and query processing by providing options for fast query mode to minimize query time or low-cost query mode to reduce resource costs, based on various factors and conditions.
