Systems and techniques for managing data in a relational database environment and a non-relational database environment. Data in the relational database environment that is static and to be maintained beyond a preselected threshold length of time is identified. The data is copied from the relational database and stored in the data the non-relational database. Access to the data is provided from the non-relational database via a user interface that accesses both the relational database and the non-relational database.

Techniques for data retention

Techniques and architectures for data ingestion in an environment having a distributed data storage system. A request to import data into the environment. The data to be imported from an external source through an application programming interface (API). The request is analyzed to determine if the request corresponds to a request to import a large data load. The data is staged if the request is for the large data load. Data management jobs are created to cause the data to be stored in one or more nodes of the distributed data storage system. The data management jobs are transmitted to corresponding nodes in the distributed data storage system. The jobs are executed asynchronously to cause the data to be stored in the nodes.

Techniques and architectures for importation of large data load

Techniques and systems for completing a database query. A time to complete a synchronous query in response to receiving an original database query is estimated by a database management system provided by one or more computing devices. A synchronous database query corresponding to the original database query is performed with the database management system if the estimated time to complete the synchronous query is less than a pre-selected threshold time. One or more asynchronous queries corresponding to the original database query are performed with the database management system if the estimated time to complete the synchronous query is greater than the pre-selected threshold time. A result, whether from a synchronous query or one or more asynchronous queries, is stored in an object within a non-relational database system.

Asynchronous search for big objects

Techniques and structures for providing a multitenant environment having both a relational database and a non-relational database. A database query is received with at least one server computing device providing a multitenant environment having a relational database system and a non-relational database system, the database query in a format corresponding to the relational database system. The query is parsed with the at least one server computing device to find one or more components of the query directed to data stored in the non-relational database system. One or more components of the query directed to data stored in the non-relational database system are converted to one or more scans of the non-relational database system. Results from the query of the relational database system and results from the one or more scans of the non-relational database system are collected. The results from the query and the results of the one or more scans to a combined result are combined. The combined results are provided to a client entity.

Multi-tenancy for structured query language (SQL) and non structured query language (NoSQL) databases

Managing data in a multitenant environment having a relational database and a non-relational database. A set of one or more policies for data retention corresponding to data stored in the relational database environment is received. The policies for data retention are defined on a tenant-by-tenant basis within the multitenant environment. The policies are deployed to data in the relational database on a tenant-by-tenant basis within the multitenant environment. Data to be copied from the relational database to the non-relational database is identified. The data to be copied in the non-relational database is stored while maintaining tenant isolation so that data belonging to the respective tenants is not accessible by other tenants when stored in the non-relational database.
