Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate generally to efficient data encoding and transmission. An encoding system determines an encoding interval at which to encode different groups of related data in a data structure. The encoding interval for each group encoded together optimizes the amount of newly received information that is encoded and transmitted in a continuous, repeating loop.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for distributing an application across multiple nodes. An embodiment operates by determining a first local state of a first bundle and a second local state of a second bundle, wherein the application comprises the first bundle and the second bundle. The embodiment calculates the first bundle is to be stored at a first node and the second bundle is to be stored at a second node based on a first level configuration file and a second level configuration file. The embodiment compares the first local state of the first bundle to a first remote state of the first node and the second local state of the second bundle to a second remote state of the second node. The embodiment then transmits the first bundle to the first node and the second bundle to the second node.

Abstract: A network analyzer includes a storage and a processor to provide an answer to inquiry including an inquiry statement and device log. The storage stores first information indicating relation between a previously received inquiry statement and an answer for the inquiry statement and second information indicating relation between previously received device log and an answer for the device log. The processor selects a first answer candidate for a new inquiry statement and calculates a first degree of certainty of the first answer candidate based on the first information. The processor selects a second answer candidate for new device log corresponding to the new inquiry statement and calculates a second degree of certainty of the second answer candidate based on the second information. The processor determines an answer based on the first answer candidate, the first degree of certainty, the second answer candidate, and the second degree of certainty.

Abstract: A different combination of multiple portions of a content item is selected for display to each of multiple sets of users of an online messaging application. The different combination of portions of the content item is sent for display to the corresponding set of users within a user interface of the online messaging application in association with information identifying a set of message threads in which each user is participating. A request to view the entire content of the content item is then received from a subset of each of the sets of users and a performance metric associated with each combination of portions of the content item is tracked based on the received request. Based on the performance metric, a performance of each portion of the content item is evaluated and used to select an optimal combination of the portions of the content item.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for managing a secure data item that is jointly accessible by the first user and the second user. In the method a first system receives a data request comprising an instruction to transmit the secure data item to a second system. The first system identifies that the secure data item is jointly accessible by the first user and the second user, and in response transmits an authorisation request to the second user device. The authorisation request comprises a prompt for the second user to authorise the data request. The first system receives a grant message indicative of the second user granting the authorisation request and in response transmits the secure data item to the second system. The secure data item is prevented from being sent to the second system, if the grant message is not received.

Abstract: A blockchain-based configuration profile provisioning system includes a client device that generates and broadcasts a blockchain transaction that identifies the client device and is directed to a blockchain address that is included in a blockchain. A blockchain device receives the blockchain transaction broadcast by the client device, executes a smart contract associated with the blockchain address, and determines that the execution of the smart contract has provided an indication that the client device identified in the blockchain transaction is authorized to receive a configuration profile. In response, the blockchain device causes a configuration profile token to be generated and transmitted. A configuration profile system receives the configuration profile token and, in response, retrieves and transmits the configuration profile to the client device.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a service detects that an event of a particular event type has occurred in a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN). The service activates, in response to detecting the occurrence of the event, a machine learning model to assess telemetry data regarding a first tunnel in the SD-WAN. The service predicts a failure of the first tunnel, based on the assessment of the telemetry data regarding the first tunnel by the machine learning model. The service proactively reroutes at least a subset of traffic on the first tunnel onto a second tunnel in the SD-WAN, in advance of the predicted failure of the first tunnel.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing distributed tracing for application performance monitoring utilizing a distributed search engine in a microservices architecture. An example method comprises providing a user interface (UI) including a distributed trace indicating in real time the services invoked to serve an incoming HTTP request, the UI further including, in a single view, associated execution times for the services shown as a timeline waterfall. The distributed trace automatically propagates a trace ID to link services end-to-end in real time until a response to the request is served. The single view also provides graphs of response time information and the distribution of response times for the services. In response to selection of a particular element of the distribution, the UI provides respective timing details. The graphs and data shown on the single view can be filtered based on metadata input into a search field of the single view.
