Abstract: A computing system providing virtual computing services may maintain a fleet of servers that host virtual machine instances having a wide variety of types and configurations. A service provider may rent processor and memory capacity by defining and offering various virtual machine instances to clients. Each virtual machine instance may include one or more virtual CPUs and a fixed amount of virtualized memory allocated to each virtual CPU, dependent on a predefined ratio between virtual CPU capacity and virtualized memory capacity for the instance type. Each server may include a custom, non-standard sized physical memory module containing memory devices of multiple technologies, types, or sizes on the same printed circuit board. By including custom memory modules, rather than relying only on standard memory modules, the service provider system may implement virtual machines having finer grained options for processor and memory capacity combinations, and may avoid stranding rentable resources.

Optimal values for the other network parameters are estimated based at least in part on the estimated first optimal value for the first network parameter. The estimated first optimal value of the first network parameter and the estimated optimal values for the other network parameters are propagated to be used by user devices to make new data requests to the computer applications.

Abstract: Technologies for generating dynamic notification content for notification messages using a machine learned model are provided. The disclosed techniques include identifying an event related to a particular user, where the event has a particular notification type that represents a subject type of the event.

Abstract: The present technology provides a system, method and computer readable medium for steering a content request among plurality of cache servers based on multi-level assessment of content popularity. In some embodiments a three levels of popularity may be determined comprising popular, semi-popular and unpopular designations for the queried content. The processing of the query and delivery of the requested content depends on the aforementioned popularity level designation and comprises a acceptance of the query at the edge cache server to which the query was originally directed, rejection of the query and re-direction to a second edge cache server or redirection of the query to origin server to thereby deliver the requested content. The proposed technology results in higher hit ratio for edge cache clusters by steering requests for semi-popular content to one or more additional cache servers while forwarding request for unpopular content to origin server.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media provide for the intelligent configuration of personal endpoint devices for video communication. The system identifies, within a room, a personal endpoint device to be used in a video communication session, then authenticates the personal endpoint device. The system then performs one or more diagnostic operations to receive diagnostic output from the personal endpoint device. The system processes the diagnostic output to determine a unique broadcasting signature of the room, and determines whether an existing optimal settings configuration of the personal endpoint device can be detected for the room. If an optimal settings configuration is detected, the setup dynamically configures one or more parameters of the personal endpoint device to match the optimal settings configuration. If not, then the system determines a new optimal settings configuration and stores it for future video communication in the room.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for authenticating a user and a user device. In one embodiment, a method does not use any stored usernames, passwords, or tokens. In certain embodiments, a when a user requests authentication a server provides variable values to a client device.

The server uses the client device generated output to authenticate the client device and the user by, in some embodiments, attempting to decrypt a user ID file associated with the client device. Each time the user requests authentication different variable values are used to prevent prediction and hacking of the system.
