Abstract: A user may, when using an application of a first computing device, intend to share data with other computing devices. To share the data, sharing processes may be performed by the first computing device, any device that the data is to be shared with, and one or more network locations. The sharing processes may determine whether the data is available at any of the devices or at any of the one or more network locations. Any device or network location where the data is available may be selected as a source of the data. Any device where the data is unavailable may be sent the data from one or more sources. Once received, the data may be stored to enable access by an application.

Abstract: Systems and methods for presenting an in-application message to a user of a software application make use of trigger events that occur on remote servers. When a remote server notes a trigger event, the remote server sends information about the trigger event to a customer engagement service. The customer engagement service causes a push notification to be sent to a user's computing device that is running a software application. The receipt of the push notification causes a campaign within the software application to log a trigger event, and that logged trigger event causes the campaign to present the user with an in-application message.

Abstract: Nodes on a token ring are rebalanced from an initial condition to a condition in which the load is optimally distributed based on a specified level of balance. Nodes are treated as electrically charged particles for purposes of the simulation and are assigned simulation values based on proportions between the size of the cluster, the computing power of the nodes, and the specified level of balance. A simulation module performs the rebalancing simulation by assigning the specified values to the particles and outputting, for each corresponding node, a token indicating the particle's final position and the position of the node on the token ring. The tokens are input to a redistribution module, which rebalances the cluster based on the generated tokens.

Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein improve existing communication systems by automatically generating auto-response notices when a message to a user is related to a group with which the user is no longer a member. For example, after changing groups within a company, the user may still receive numerous messages related to the former group. Messages intended for this user may then be identified as related to a group with which the user is no longer associated based on the identity of the sender, other recipients of the message, the contents of the message, and a message context. The system may present an auto-response notice to the sender while the message is being drafted and before it has been sent. The auto-response notice alerts the sender of the changed group affiliation of the user.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media are described herein. In some embodiments, a computing platform may deploy a cloud application comprising a first instance of the cloud application. Further, the computing platform may direct a DNS to the first instance of the cloud application. Next, the computing platform may determine that a second instance of the cloud application should be deployed. Additionally, the computing platform may create a first global traffic manager configured with at least a first endpoint and a second endpoint, where the first endpoint is associated with the first instance and is enabled, and where the second endpoint is associated with the second instance, and is disabled. Subsequently, the computing platform may direct the DNS to the first global traffic manager. The computing platform may then direct the DNS to the first global traffic manager, enable the second endpoint.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed related to determining device settings for a meeting based in part by parsing text from a meeting invitation or calendar entry, and controlling one or more remotely controllable devices during the meeting according to the determined settings. Based on contextual information determined from a parsed meeting invitation and/or related sources, controllable devices such as remote-controllable window shades, lighting equipment, camera equipment, display screens and/or other in-room equipment may be automatically assigned to determined settings before or during an in-person meeting, conference call or videoconference.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage mediums for reducing navigation redirect latency by using speculative preconnection. A redirect speculation value is retrieved in response to a request for a source Uniform Resource Locator (URL), where the redirect speculation value is based on the source URL. The redirect speculation value includes the source URL, a target URL, and a probability factor. A preconnection to the target URL's hostname is then initiated based on the probability factor. Next, a response from the request to the source URL is received, where the response includes a redirect URL. Finally, the preconnection is used to process the redirect URL when the redirect URL is similar to the target URL.

Abstract: A data collecting method at the terminal side includes: calculating layout position structure information; obtaining event tracking transaction data from a first server; generating user behavior data according to the event tracking transaction data and the layout position structure information; and sending the user behavior data to a second server. Compared with the conventional techniques, the terminal of the present disclosure uses the event tracking transaction data and the layout position structure information to generate the user behavior data, instead of simply calling API to obtain the user behavior data, self-defines the event tracking setting, and automatically collects the user behavior data. Thus, the present disclosure realizes automatic event tracking and improve the accuracy of event tracking.

Abstract: A messaging server system receives a message creation input from a first client device that is associated with a first user registered with the messaging server system. The messaging server system determines, based on an entity graph representing connections between a plurality of users registered with the messaging server system, that the first user is within a threshold degree of connection with a second that initiated a group story in relation to a specified event. The messaging server system determines, based on location data received from the first client device, that the first client device was located within a geo-fence surrounding a geographic location of the specified event during a predetermined event window, the geo-fence and event window having been designated by the second user, and causes the first client device to present a user interface element that enables the first user to submit content to the group story.
