Provided are systems and methods for verifying, in a database system, that a modification request to events data is completed. The method marks a modification request as verifying and implements a search strategy to search for unmodified events data (the stragglers) in the least expensive query scope first and then keep expanding the scope of the query until at least one unmodified events data is found (a straggler), which is marked as a fail. This strategy includes (i) beginning at a lowest scope search, (ii) searching a (database first: continuing to expand the search scope as high as it can go without a fail, and (iii) only when it's finished searching the database without a fail, searching a search engine in the same way. When the searches are done, and no fails have been marked, the method marks the request as done.

Systems and methods for verifying performance of a modification request in a database system

A method by a computing system implementing a node within a cluster of nodes to load balance among the cluster of nodes using retroactive refusal. Each of the nodes within the cluster of nodes is capable of processing work items. The method includes accepting a work item to be processed by the node, monitoring a resource utilization of the node, determining whether the resource utilization of the node exceeds a predetermined threshold, and retroactively refusing the work item in response to a determination that the resource utilization of the node exceeds the predetermined threshold, wherein the retroactive refusal causes the work item to be reassigned from the node to another node within the cluster of nodes.

Proactive load-balancing using retroactive work refusal

Dynamic selection of data sources for streaming dynamic data is described. A data streaming service receives a dynamic selection of a data source after the data streaming service begins executing, the dynamic selection of the data source including an identifier of a host of a multi-tenant database and an identifier of a tenant of multiple tenants storing data in the multi-tenant database. The data streaming service streams dynamic data from the data source to a data destination.

Dynamic selection of data sources for streaming dynamic data

Embodiments regard transfer of data streaming services to provide continuous data flow. An embodiment of an apparatus includes a processor to process data for streaming to one or more organizations; and a memory to store data for streaming to the one or more organizations, wherein the apparatus is to provide a centralized work distribution service to track status of each of a plurality of data streams to the one or more organizations, and a plurality of nodes, each node being a virtual machine to stream one or more data streams to the one or more organizations, each node including a first daemon service to monitor connectivity of the node to dependency services for the node and, upon detecting a loss of connection to one or more of the dependency services, the node to discontinue ownership of the one or more data streams of the node and a second daemon service to poll the centralized work distribution service for data streams that are not assigned.

A method is described for collapsing a plurality of detected changes to data in a database into a reduced set of changes. The method includes detecting a plurality of changes to the database; determining that one or more changes in the plurality of changes are superfluous to demonstrating the current state of data in the database to an external system; determining, in response to determining that one or more changes in the plurality of changes are superfluous, a reduced set of changes that demonstrates the current state of data in the database based on the plurality of changes, wherein a number of changes in the plurality of changes is greater than a number of changes in the reduced set of changes; and determining a set of messages to generate based on the reduced set of changes, wherein the set of messages demonstrate the current state of data.

Collapsing multiple changes in a database for generating a reduced number of messages for an external system

In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating smart streaming of data between external systems and service providers in an on-demand services environment according to one embodiment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method comprises splitting, by a streaming server computing device ('streaming device'), a file including messages associated with multiple tenants in a multitenant environment based on growth of the file over a time-period. The method may further include grouping, by the streaming device, the messages into multiple files based on intelligence fields associated with one or more of the messages and the tenants, where each file of the multiple files corresponds to a tenant of the multiple tenants. The method may further include uploading, by the streaming device, the multiple files to a database device associated with a service provider and coupled to the streaming server device.
