Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method includes identifying a target networking device communicatively connected to a cluster of networked server instances. The networked server instances are configured to consume network telemetry messages. The method further includes applying a shared lock to the target networking device, so that only a single networked server instance has access to network telemetry messages produced by the target networking device. The method also includes replicating the network telemetry messages produced by the locked target networking device to other server instances in the cluster, and then diverting requests for network telemetry messages from the locked target networking device to another server instance in the cluster of networked server instances. This allows the other server instance in the cluster to service the diverted telemetry data requests for the locked target networking device using the replicated network telemetry messages.

Abstract: A fifth generation (5G) network can provide Rich Communication Services (RCS) between multiple user equipment (UE) of different device types and/or different operating systems. An RCS server in an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) can be used to format data associated with a chat between UEs having different operating systems. The RCS server can initiate, establish, maintain, format, augment, or otherwise determine a rich communication chat message between the UEs over the 5G network.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system for internet protocol (IP) warming is described. Some systems may send large volumes of communication messages from a single IP address. If the IP address does not have a strong sender reputation, these emails may be sent to spam folders or blocked, and the IP address may be blacklisted. To build a strong sender reputation, a user may implement an IP warming plan for the IP address. To support automated IP warming, an application may identify a target number of communication messages to transmit from the IP address, retrieve communication information for a target set of devices, generate, for the IP address, a set of transmission thresholds corresponding to a set of time durations for transmitting communication messages based on the target number of communication messages and the communication information, and transmit a set of communication messages based on the set of transmission thresholds.

The guide information can be used to clearly mark a network traffic level of each terminal device in each time period and present it in a user interface, so as to visually present a network user's network activity behavior, guide parental use and monitoring, and set guidelines for members.

Abstract: In some embodiments, techniques for generating personalized unsubscribe options for emails are provided. For example, a subscription management system can access information associated with an active email subscription and a user profile for a user. The subscription management system can determine a temporary unsubscribe time period for the user based on the information associated with the active email subscription and the profile of the user. The subscription management system can embed a temporary unsubscribe option in an email to be sent to the user. The temporary unsubscribe option can represent the temporary unsubscribe time period. The subscription management system can cause the email to be sent to the user and receiving a selection of the temporary unsubscribe option indicating the temporary unsubscribe time period. The subscription management system can change the active email subscription to a suppressed email subscription associated with the temporary unsubscribe time period.

Abstract: Asynchronous messaging on an instant messaging system is provided. The method comprises receiving an instant message from a send addressed to a recipient on the instant messaging system and determining a current user status of the recipient. Responsive to a determination the recipient is currently available, the instant messaging system sends the instant message to the recipient in real time. Responsive to a determination the recipient is currently unavailable, the instant messaging system, according to sender preferences, sends the instant message to the recipient via an alternative communication system or stores the instant message in a queue until triggered to send the instant message when the current user status of the recipient changes to available.

Abstract: A customer of a multi-channel message exchange system provides criteria for selecting a service provider using an application programming interface (API). The multi-channel message exchange system selects a service provider that is best suited to deliver each individual message, via a network, for the customer. The message exchange system selects a service provider based on customer criteria, service provider data structures, and other information. The criteria may include a maximum value, a minimum quality score, a maximum latency, or any suitable combination thereof. The data structures may include geographic jurisdictions in which the service provider provides network-based message delivery, channels through which the service provider is willing to deliver messages, or any suitable combination thereof.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method of implementing capacity-aware load balancing across a set of data compute nodes (DCNs) by reducing latency for the set of DCNs. From the set of DCNs, the method identifies (1) a first subset of DCNs including DCNs that have a latency that is higher than an average latency computed for the set of DCNs and (2) a second subset of DCNs including DCNs that have a latency that is lower than the average latency computed for the set of DCNs. For each DCN in the first subset of DCNs, the method assigns to the DCN a weight value that corresponds to a target latency computed for the set of DCNs. Based on the assigned weight values for the first subset of DCNs, the method computes an excess weight value to be redistributed across the second subset of DCNs. The method redistributes the computed excess weight value across the second subset of DCNs.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for streaming during unavailability of a content server. Upon determining that there are conditions indicating buffering issues during delivery of a media asset, a server determines a first group of devices suitable for receiving the media asset from the server and sharing the media asset on a peer-to-peer network. Then, the server determines a second group of devices suitable for receiving the media asset on a peer-to-peer network from a first group device. The server then determines groupings within which to share and receive the media asset. Next, the server transmits instructions to the devices in the first group to maintain in buffer and share certain portions of the media asset with the second group devices within their grouping. Finally, the server updates information detailing the media asset portions the devices are maintaining in buffer and sharing.
