US Patent 10169446 Relational modeler and renderer for non-relational data

Methods and apparatus for a relational modeler and renderer for non-relational data are disclosed. In response to an indication of non-relational data sources, a relational data model based on one or more model inclusion criteria is generated to represent at least some contents of the non-relational data sources. In response to a model population request from a client, data obtained from the one or more non-relational data sources for one or more tables of the model is stored in cache storage allocated on behalf of the client. In response to a read-only operation request directed to the model, results of the read-only operation are obtained from the cache storage and provided to the requester.
