In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for connection concentration in a database environment. A transparency engine provided between client applications and a database can include a connection pool (e.g., UCP connection pool). The transparency engine can operate as a proxy engine for the database and as a session abstraction layer for the client applications, to enable the client applications to utilize features provided by the connection pool without code changes. The transparency engine can receive application connections from the client applications, and concentrate the application connections on a smaller number of database connections maintained in the connection pool.

System and method for connection concentration in a database environment

Described is a system, method, and computer program product is provided that implements high-volume data ingestion in a relational database system. A middle-tier structure is provided that sits between the IoT data producers and the back-end database system. Data records are gathered together and organized at the middle tier, and groups of those records are ingested on a group-basis into the database in a manner which bypasses standard SQL engine processing.

Fast ingestion of records in a database using data locality and queuing

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for row buffering in a database environment. A transparency engine can be provided between client applications and a database, and can operate as a proxy engine for the database and as a session abstraction layer for the client applications, to enable the client applications to utilize database features provided by the connection pool without code changes to the client applications. The transparency engine can maintain a plurality of local row buffers to store rows fetched from a database. The local buffers can be filled by rows pre-fetched from the database. When a client application requests rows from the database, the transparency engine can first check whether the rows exist in a local buffer. If the rows are present in the local buffer, the transparency engine sends the rows to the requesting client application, without going to the database.

System and method for row buffering in a database environment

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for high availability and load balancing in a database environment. A transparency engine can be provided between client applications and a database, and can operate as a proxy engine for the database and as a session abstraction layer for the client applications, to enable the client applications to utilize database features provided by the connection pool without code changes to the client applications. The transparency can keep track of session states, request boundaries and cursors to efficiently reuse the database connections across the client applications. The transparency engine can use the request boundaries and indicators from the database to detect safe places to drain database connections in the event of database outages.
