30 Claims

1. A computer-program product comprising a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing computer instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, perform operations comprising:

transferring, using an application programming interface, a plurality of data blocks written in a first programming language from a first computer process to a second computer process that executes an algorithm written in a second programming language;

creating a respective data block of the plurality of data blocks, wherein creating the respective data block includes:

instantiating a data model of a plurality of predefined data models that corresponds to a target data category, wherein the data model includes a plurality of attributes that define a structure of the data model, and

attributing an attribute value to each attribute of the plurality of attributes of the data model;

wherein transferring a respective data block of the plurality of data blocks includes:

serializing, using the application programming interface, the respective data block into a serialized data block based on a serialization protocol executed by the application programming interface, wherein the serialized data block is encoded in a programming language-agnostic data format;

writing, by the first computer process, the serialized data block to a cross-process queue in response to serializing the respective data block;

reading, by the second computer process, the serialized data block from the cross-process queue;

deserializing, using the application programming interface, the serialized data block retrieved from the cross-process queue into a deserialized data block that is encoded in a data structure of the second programming language based on a deserialization protocol executed by the application programming interface that translates the respective data block encoded in a binary-based data format to the second programming language including:

constructing an instance of the data model that corresponds to the target data category in the second programming language, and

attributing a set of attribute values extracted from the respective data block encoded in the binary-based data format to the instance of the data model that corresponds to the target data category in the second programming language; and

executing, by the second computer process, the algorithm written in the second programming language based on providing at least a portion of the deserialized data block to the algorithm for data processing.
