Abstract
Systems, methods, and articles of manufacture provide for simplified and partially-automated data operation services, such as data transfer, storage, management, and analysis operations. Non-IT data consumers may, for example, initiate such data operations by providing only a subset of the required parameters for the operation, with the specially-coded system automatically fetching any missing parameters or values from one or more metadata stores and initiating the requested operation.
Claims11
A system for simplified and partially-automated data transfer operations, comprising:
- a plurality of computer servers, each computer server comprising a plurality of electronic processing devices;
- and
- at least one non-transitory electronic data storage device in communication with the plurality of computer servers, the non-transitory electronic data storage device storing:
- (i) coded rules;
- (ii) data transfer metadata including at least one of a data type, data format, compression algorithm, archive type, data partition, and data bucket, for a database;
- and
- (ii) instructions that when executed by the plurality of electronic processing devices of the plurality of computer servers, result in:
- providing, to a remote user device, a data transfer interface comprising a plurality of interactive graphical input elements;
- receiving, in response to the providing and via at least one of the interactive graphical input elements, an indication of a user request to initiate a data transfer operation, the request comprising:
- (a) an indication of a type of data transfer operation requested;
- and
- (b) an indication of at least one value for at least one parameter required to initiate the operation;
- automatically comparing, applying at least one of the stored rules, the at least one value for at least one parameter required to initiate the operation with a stored indication of a set of parameters required to initiate the operation;
- automatically identifying, based on the comparing, a subset of the set of parameters that are missing from the request;
- automatically fetching, from the data transfer metadata, values for the subset of the set of parameters that are missing from the request;
- automatically retrieving data, from the database, in accordance with the at least one value for the at least one parameter required to initiate the operation and the values for the subset of the set of parameters that are missing from the request;
- and
- storing the retrieved data in at least one of a data staging area in the at least one non-transitory electronic data storage device and a target data storage device.
