Message filtering based on cache response for event processing
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11971822B2) outlines a method for a computer system to detect and process events associated with database transactions. The method involves detecting the occurrence of a specific event, determining whether to enqueue a message in a message queue based on cache responses, and resolving cache misses by accessing filter rules. The system processes the message to identify tasks related to the event, updating the cache with relevant filter rules for future occurrences.
The patent also describes additional features such as generating keys based on event types and entity identifiers, creating cache entries for missed responses, storing preliminary rules locally, and clearing the cache after a defined time interval. The system can also handle multiple events, enqueuing messages based on corresponding filter rules stored in the cache. The method ensures efficient processing of events associated with database transactions, enhancing system performance and responsiveness. The patent further extends to a non-transitory computer-readable medium with executable program instructions and a system comprising processors and memory to perform the described operations, emphasizing the practical application of the method in real-world scenarios.
