A distributed OLAP-based method and system for generating association rules. An architecture is provided for processing transaction data to generate summary information, customer profiles, and association rules. The distributed system includes at least two layers of data warehouse/OLAP stations: local data-warehouse OLAP stations (LDOSs) and a global data-warehouse OLAP station (GDOS). The LDOSs perform local data mining and summarization, and the GDOS merges, mines, and summarizes the input data received from LDOSs. The summarized data is then utilized by the GDOS to generate association rules that can be provided to the LDOSs for business planning.

A user interface may be designed to receive conflicting data from multiple data sources during a merger of legacy computer systems. The interface automatically validates the conflicting data against each other to generate a final data set for review. Summary information for each data set can be displayed in a single interface such that the summary data sets are individually selectable and provide an overview of the data merger process for each data set. By drilling down through the summary data, the user interface can display individual data sets where data conflicts can be resolved, missing data can be provided, and duplicate data can be eliminated. When the merger process is complete, the interface can translate the data set into a standardized format that can be exported to form generation modules to generate, for example, a welcome letter based on the translated data set.

Interactive and dynamic exploring of filter criteria for large amounts of numerical data having multiple dimensions is described. Exploration occurs without excessive amounts of computation or querying of a database based on a data set summary that may be obtained from a server in a search system and applied by a client device. A data set is summarized so as to capture relationships between distributions of items in the data set along multiple dimensions. To explore filter criteria, a user may interactively adjust a range of values that act as a filter criteria along a dimension and determine an effect on a distribution of items along another dimension. The client device may apply the data summary in reverse to determine, based on user input specifying aspects of a distribution along one dimension, filter criteria for another dimension that would result in the specified distribution.

Data is collected and aggregated regarding a particular used item for sale, e.g., automobiles, which is in turn validated and normalized with respect to pre-determined identification models. A historical report may be generated to provide an assessment of value based on qualitative information such as mileage and/or location, and may be presented in a multi-axis graphic format. Data records are collected from a plurality of sources over the Internet, and are validated by comparing data field entries in the aggregate data records with data field entries in an established validation database. The validated data records are normalized with respect to a predetermined set or sets of fields by assigning an identification unit to each validated data record. A web crawler to seek out suitable data records relating to the used items that are sought, a search engine is queried to derive a list of suitable high probability target URLs.

Enables locating and merging potential data record matches. Enables locating duplicates through the definition of matching strategies. Each strategy may include transformations, matching rules and scoring thresholds to implement fuzzy matches that match closely related data records that are not exact matches. Performing a search allows for narrowing down the records to a desired set on which to apply a given matching strategy. Merging is performed on the potential duplicates thus located to consolidate data and remove duplicates. By narrowing down the records to a closely related set via a search, merging is simplified to work on a small number of closely related records, thus simplifying the process. The total matching score obtained via execution of match strategies may be utilized to determine which potential record(s) to merge for example. May utilize past user input to provide intelligent inputs for rules, tokens, weights, fields, parameters or any other past user input.

The technique described herein provides a way to summarize data and can also minimize unnecessary accesses to a data store. In one embodiment, the technique creates and stores an adaptive range filter that contains a compact summary of the contents of an index for a data store in the form of a trie data structure. Before accessing the index of the data store in response to a query, the technique checks the filter to determine whether the data store does not contain any keys for a specific range of data. If the adaptive range filter indicates that the index contains no keys satisfying the query predicate, the index of the data store and the data itself is not accessed. The adaptive range filter of the technique supports both range predicates and equality predicates. It is adaptive to changes in data and queries by learning the query and data distribution.

Today's cloud software, especially cloud management software, faces a complex, distributed, cross platform environment with extremely diversified software components. Cloud Connection Pool (CCP) is a technique to obtain a connection in such an environment and is more complex than a traditional connection pool. CCP allows requesting components to establish connections to target components. CCP uses cloud mapping data that associates cloud components with each other and stores pool data that identifies connection pools for components (or “managing components”) that manage target components. In response to a request for a connection from a requesting component, the CCP determines a managing component that is associated with the requested target component and identifies (or creates) a connection pool that is associated with the managing component. The CCP then retrieves a connection from the connection pool and returns the connection to the requesting component.
