Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method, apparatus, and computer program product for dynamic definition and selection of metric applications for execution against a data set. This involves receiving a set of record data from a record repository, determining record key data and one or more record data tables for the set of record data, selecting one or more metric applications based on a mapping performed between the record key data and a metric registration structure, executing each selected metric application, and storing the output in a memory. The technical effect of this invention is to enable efficient and dynamic selection of metric applications for execution against a data set, based on the data types required by each application.

Problems solved by technology

However, current products for performing this analysis are inflexible and often tightly coupled to particular data sets.
Furthermore, such products require manual identification of which metrics to execute against particular sets of input data, such that the system lacks any awareness of whether a given metric applies to a given set of input data absent a hard-coded association.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]The present invention now will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all embodiments of the inventions are shown. Indeed, these inventions may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicable legal requirements. Like numbers refer to like elements throughout.

[0015]Introduction and Definitions

[0016]A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided in accordance with example embodiments of the present invention to provide for definition, selection, and execution of metric applications against stored data. Embodiments advantageously allow for generation of metric applications with arbitrary code for execution. When records are received from a record storage repository, metrics that relate to data stored in the repository are selected based on a record inde...

Abstract

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for generation, selection, and execution of metric applications. An example of the method includes receiving, via record access circuitry, the set of record data from a record repository, determining, by a processor and from the set of record data, record key data and one or more record data tables for the set of record data, selecting, by metric management circuitry, one or more metric applications based on a mapping performed between record key data and a metric registration structure, wherein the metric registration structure comprises metric application metadata indicating data types required by each of a plurality of metric applications, executing, by a processor, each of the selected one or more metric applications, determining an output of each of the executed selected one or more metric applications, and storing the output in a memory.

Description

TECHNOLOGICAL FIELD[0001]Example embodiments of the present invention relate generally to methods and systems for selection of particular program code for execution against a data repository and, more particularly, to methods and systems for providing dynamic definition and selection of metric applications for execution against a data repository.BACKGROUND[0002]As more and more organizations switch to enterprise data storage systems, more and more information has become available for electronic review, analysis, and analytics. In fact, in many industries, programmatic analysis of stored data repositories is a requirement for various audit, regulatory, and certification processes. For example, in the healthcare field, access to federal funds by healthcare organizations (HCOs) may require strict compliance with certain performance measurement and reporting requirements, and contracts with insurers may require that HCOs adhere to certain minimum standards, and performance of physicians...
