A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11757993B2) describes a method for managing and accessing data using one or more data cloud servers. The method involves receiving an access request for data and determining external sources to retrieve the data. A configuration data set with specific properties is retrieved from the external sources and displayed. Users can select elements from the configuration data set to form a select configuration data set. A timeframe for retrieving data associated with the select configuration data set is determined, and a query is generated based on this data. The query is executed according to a cadence, and output data is retrieved from the external sources.

The method also includes receiving instructions from a user to provide access to the output data to a set of recipient systems. Exchange protocols for accessing the output data are sent to the recipient systems, and acceptance of these protocols is received. If accepted, the recipient systems are provided with access to the output data; otherwise, access is blocked.

The patent also describes a system for implementing this method, which includes computing device processors and memories storing instructions for executing the method. The system provides user interfaces for selecting external sources, displaying configuration properties, selecting elements from the configuration data set, and indicating when the output data is available for sharing.

Additionally, the patent describes a method for providing access to the output data to a second set of recipient systems. Instructions are received from the user or the first set of recipient systems, and exchange protocols or second exchange protocols are sent to the second set of recipient systems. Acceptance of these protocols is received, and if accepted, the second set of recipient systems is provided with access to the output data.

The method also includes initiating the display of a visual representation of the output data using analytical tools, such as histograms.

Overall, this patent presents a method and system for managing and accessing data using data cloud servers. It offers a structured approach to retrieving and sharing data, allowing users to customize their data selection and control access to the output data. The inclusion of analytical tools enhances data visualization and analysis capabilities.
