Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and computer program for providing an ultra-high availability cloud emulator of an entity's data in a multi-tenant SaaS environment that is not controlled by the entity. The system extracts metadata related to the entity's data and user interface in the multi-tenant SaaS environment. The metadata is used to identify and extract data records for an entity from the multi-tenant SaaS environment, as well as to ascertain functional aspects of the entity user interface in the multi-tenant SaaS environment. A cloud emulator of the entity's data records and user interface in the multi-tenant SaaS environment is created using the extracted data records and metadata, where the cloud emulator is outside the multi-tenant SaaS environment. The entity is able to access the cloud emulator at the entity's discretion as a failover for the entity's data records in the multi-tenant SaaS environment and to modify the entity's data records in the cloud emulator.

Abstract: A service manages a plurality of virtual machine instances for low latency execution of user codes. The service can provide the capability to execute user code in response to events triggered on an auxillary service to provide implicit and automatic rate matching and scaling between events being triggered on the auxiliary service and the corresponding execution of user code on various virtual machine instances. An auxiliary service may be configured as an event triggering service to detect events and generate event messages for execution of the user codes. The service can request, receive, or poll for event messages directly from the auxiliary service or via an intermediary message service. Event messages can be rapidly converted to requests to execute user code on the service. The time from processing the event message to initiating a request to begin code execution is less than a predetermined duration, for example, 100 ms.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of mapping a process model of a software application executed by a hosting platform. A series of actions taken by a user with respect to user interfaces generated by the software application are simulated through one or more application programming interface (API) calls.
