A method and a memory device are provided. Data is obtained for a scan operation at an input buffer of a scan kernel in the memory device. The input buffer is adaptable to a first mode and a second mode of the scan kernel. Preprocessing of the data from the input buffer is performed to generate preprocessed data. A different type of preprocessing is performed for the first mode and the second mode. The preprocessed data is filtered to generate a filtered result. The filtered result is provided from the scan kernel to a controller of the memory device.

Operations in a query plan generated for a query may be scaled when performed at a query engine. The performance of an operation in the query plan may be monitored to detect a scaling event. A performance distribution for the operation may be determined among a modified number of processing resources. The operation may then continue performing at the modified number of processing resources according to the determined performance distribution.

The technology disclosed relates to streamlined analysis of security posture of a cloud environment. In particular, the disclosed technology relates to a graphical query builder for generating a subject path signature, for example representing a vulnerability path in the cloud environment. A computer-implemented method includes generating a graphical user interface having configurable node elements and edge elements and, in response to user input on the graphical user interface, configuring the node elements to represent entities in a subject path signature in the cloud environment and the edge elements to represent relationships between the entities in the subject path signature. The method also includes generating a query representing the subject path signature, executing the query to qualify a set of network paths in the cloud environment as conforming to the subject path signature, and outputting query results identifying the qualified set of network paths.

Disclosed embodiments include a data filter system including an interface and data filter circuitry. The data filter circuitry is configured to receive a data filter initiation signal via the interface, and in response to receipt of the data filter initiation signal, perform at least one operation associated with a data query, wherein the data query implicates a body of data stored in at least one storage unit; wherein performance of the at least one operation associated with the data query results in generation of a filtered data subset from the body of data, including less data than the body of data implicated by the data query; and transfer the filtered data subset to a host processor configured to perform one or more additional operations relative to the data query to generate an output to the data query.

The technology disclosed relates to streamlined analysis of security posture of a cloud environment. In particular, the disclosed technology relates to accessing permissions data and access control data for pairs of compute resources and storage resources in the cloud environment, tracing network communication paths between the pairs of the compute resources and the storage resources based on the permissions data and the access control data, accessing sensitivity classification data for objects in the storage resources, qualifying a subset of the pairs of the compute resources and the storage resources as vulnerable to breach attack based on an evaluation of the permissions data, the access control data, and the sensitivity classification data against a set risk criterion, and generating a representation of propagation of the breach attack along the network communication paths, the representation identifying relationships between the subset of the pairs of the compute resources and the storage resources.

In particular, the disclosed technology relates to a data schema detection system that uses a content-based data classifier to classify data items in a cloud environment. A computer-implemented method includes accessing a data store in the cloud environment and obtaining metadata representing a structure of schema objects in the data store. The method includes executing, based on the metadata, a content-based data classifier to classify data items in the schema objects and outputting a classifier result that represents the classification of the data in the schema objects.

Embodiments described herein provide techniques to facilitate instruction-based control of memory attributes. One embodiment provides a graphics processor comprising a processing resource, a memory device, a cache coupled with the processing resources and the memory, and circuitry to process a memory access message received from the processing resource. The memory access message enables access to data of the memory device. To process the memory access message, the circuitry is configured to determine one or more cache attributes that indicate whether the data should be read from or stored the cache. The cache attributes may be provided by the memory access message or stored in state data associated with the data to be accessed by the access message.

The present invention relates to optimized access of a database. Herein are techniques to accelerate execution of any combination of ad hoc query, heterogenous hardware, and fluctuating workload. In an embodiment, a computer receives a data access request for data tuples and compiles the data access request into relational operators. A particular implementation of a particular relational operator is dynamically selected from multiple interchangeable implementations. Each interchangeable implementation contains respective physical operators. A particular hardware operator for a particular physical operator is selected from multiple interchangeable hardware operators that include: a first hardware operator that executes on first processing hardware, and a second hardware operator that executes on second processing hardware that is functionally different from the first processing hardware. A response to the data access request is generated based on: the data tuples, the particular implementation of the particular relational operator, and the particular hardware operator.

A method for returning a results page responsive to a user search query, such as a search query on a web site, may include receiving a search query from a user, determining, responsive to the query, a set of relevant products from a plurality of product listings based on a similarity of the user query to the respective product listings, retrieving inventory information respective of each of the relevant products, the inventory information comprising one or more available fulfillment channels respective of each of the relevant products, ranking the relevant products with respect to each other according to the inventory information, and returning, to the user, a search result comprising a list of the relevant products, ordered according to the ranking.
