Efficient production and consumption for data changes in a database under high concurrency

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

detecting that a sequence of data changes was made to data values of a database table, wherein the sequence of data changes is indexed in a data change index based on pseudorandom numbers;

determining a first invocation number and a second invocation number greater than the first invocation number;

generating a sequence of pseudorandom numbers for all invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number, wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers begins with a first pseudorandom number generated based on a seed value assigned to the database table and the first invocation number, and wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers ends with a second pseudorandom number generated based on the seed value and the second invocation number; and

retrieving, via entries of the data change index that are accessed using the sequence of pseudorandom numbers, the sequence of data changes made to the data values of the database table.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein all the invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number form a numerically ordered sequence; wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers form a numerically unordered sequence.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein a pseudorandom number in the sequence of pseudorandom numbers is used by a data change consumer to retrieve a respective data change in the sequence of data changes to the database table.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sequence of data changes are applied by one or more data change producers to the database table over time in a time sequential order corresponding to a numeric order of the invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein each data change in the sequence of data changes corresponds to a respective invocation number in the invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number; wherein the data change is indexed based on a pseudorandom number generated based on the seed value and the respective invocation number.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the database table comprises a plurality of table columns; wherein the plurality of table columns of the database table comprises an indexed table column used to store pseudorandom numbers.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sequence of data changes to the database table is retrieved by a data change consumer while the database table is concurrently accessed by at least one of a data change producer or another data change consumer.

8. One or more non-transitory computer readable media storing a program of instructions that is executable by a device to perform:

detecting that a sequence of data changes was made to data values of a database table, wherein the sequence of data changes is indexed in a data change index based on pseudorandom numbers;

determining a first invocation number and a second invocation number greater than the first invocation number;

generating a sequence of pseudorandom numbers for all invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number, wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers begins with a first pseudorandom number generated based on a seed value assigned to the database table and the first invocation number, and wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers ends with a second pseudorandom number generated based on the seed value and the second invocation number; and

retrieving, via entries of the data change index that are accessed using the sequence of pseudorandom numbers, the sequence of data changes made to the data values of the database table.

9. The media of claim 8 , wherein all the invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number form a numerically ordered sequence; wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers form a numerically unordered sequence.

10. The media of claim 8 , wherein a pseudorandom number in the sequence of pseudorandom numbers is used by a data change consumer to retrieve a respective data change in the sequence of data changes to the database table.

11. The media of claim 8 , wherein the sequence of data changes are applied by one or more data change producers to the database table over time in a time sequential order corresponding to a numeric order of the invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number.

12. The media of claim 8 , wherein each data change in the sequence of data changes corresponds to a respective invocation number in the invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number; wherein the data change is indexed based on a pseudorandom number generated based on the seed value and the respective invocation number.

13. The media of claim 8 , wherein the database table comprises a plurality of table columns; wherein the plurality of table columns of the database table comprises an indexed table column used to store pseudorandom numbers.

14. The media of claim 8 , wherein the sequence of data changes to the database table is retrieved by a data change consumer while the database table is concurrently accessed by at least one of a data change producer or another data change consumer.

15. A system, comprising:

one or more computing processors;

one or more non-transitory computer readable media storing a program of instructions that is executable by the one or more computing processors to perform:

detecting that a sequence of data changes was made to data values of a database table, wherein the sequence of data changes is indexed in a data change index based on pseudorandom numbers;

determining a first invocation number and a second invocation number greater than the first invocation number;

generating a sequence of pseudorandom numbers for all invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number, wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers begins with a first pseudorandom number generated based on a seed value assigned to the database table and the first invocation number, and wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers ends with a second pseudorandom number generated based on the seed value and the second invocation number; and

retrieving, via entries of the data change index that are accessed using the sequence of pseudorandom numbers, the sequence of data changes made to the data values of the database table.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein all the invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number form a numerically ordered sequence; wherein the sequence of pseudorandom numbers form a numerically unordered sequence.

17. The system of claim 15 , wherein a pseudorandom number in the sequence of pseudorandom numbers is used by a data change consumer to retrieve a respective data change in the sequence of data changes to the database table.

18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the sequence of data changes are applied by one or more data change producers to the database table over time in a time sequential order corresponding to a numeric order of the invocation numbers ranging between the first invocation number and the second invocation number.
