Application: System and method for a scalable pricing engine (Patent ID: US20240095788A1)
The patent filed by Salesforce Inc. describes a scalable pricing engine that can operate in both low-scale and high-scale modes to process pricing data efficiently in response to pricing requests. The engine utilizes a primary database for low-scale operations and a scalable read-only data service for high-scale operations, along with a high-scale cache to reduce latency. The system also includes data reduction techniques and network resource allocations to optimize processing of requests and responses.
The patent further details the method and article of manufacture for implementing the scalable pricing engine, including operations such as monitoring the primary database for modifications to pricing data, storing data in an in-memory cache for faster access, and utilizing a pricing API for serialization and deserialization of object graphs. Additionally, the system exposes a database interface for translating commands into database operations, enabling efficient management of create, read, update, and delete operations. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to pricing data processing that ensures scalability, efficiency, and optimal resource allocation for pricing requests across different runtime environments.
