Application: Real-time streaming data ingestion into database tables (Patent ID: US20240126765A1)

The abstract describes a streaming ingest platform developed by Snowflake Inc. to address latency and expense issues when uploading data to a cloud data system. This platform organizes data into per-table chunks and per-account blobs, allowing data to be committed and available for query processing before being fully ingested. This system can handle data from various sources, including Internet of Things (IoT) devices, with different processing capabilities.

The claims detail a method, machine-storage medium, and system for receiving registration requests for data ingestion, committing data, converting it into a common format, and executing queries before full ingestion. The method includes steps for organizing data into per-table sets and per-account groups, maintaining data order based on sequencing information, and pruning data based on expression properties and queries. The machine-storage medium and system also include similar functionalities for efficient data ingestion and processing. Overall, the technology described in the patent aims to improve data ingestion latency and efficiency in cloud data systems.
