Caching time-sensitive data via sliding window partitions

Abstract

A system for low latency caching of time-sensitive data is disclosed. The system comprises a database, one or more processors, and non-transitory memory. The non-transitory memory comprises instructions that cause the one or more processors to divide a table of the database into a plurality of logical partitions; during a first interval of time, insert new records exclusively into a first partition of the plurality of logical partitions; during a second interval of time, insert new records exclusively into a second partition of the plurality of logical partitions; during a subsequent interval of time, determine that a predetermined period of time has passed since conclusion of the first interval of time; and responsive to the determination that the predetermined period of time has passed, delete records from the first partition without changing contents of the second partition or any other partition of the plurality of logical partitions.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
