Abstract: A system and method for automatically generating cross-application dependency maps for enterprise IT environments is described. Automated code parsing techniques are used to identify dependencies between and among different business applications within the IT environment, including for both legacy and modern business applications. A thorough analysis of the enterprise-wide impact of a programming change, such as, for example, a change to the code of a legacy business application, can be conducted. There is the ability to perform canonical and customized searches of dependent elements between components of the IT environment and generate impact reports that can show how desired changes to particular applications may affect the environment. The impact of changes in a code repository, which can include documents in different programming languages that reside in a separate code environment, can be identified and analyzed.

Abstract: A technique for dynamically provisioning virtual machines for running a cloud-based software application includes querying a pool manager of a multi-tiered pool of virtual machines to identify a set of classes of virtual machines, which meet a specified size criterion, and a respective TVC (time-variant characteristic) for each class. If an identified one of the set of classes has a smaller TVC than a TVC of one of the virtual machines currently running the application, the technique proceeds to swap the current virtual machine for a virtual machine having the identified class.

The resources include virtualized resources, such as virtual machines (VMs) and virtual storage disks (VSDs). A policy includes a rule and scope.

Policies are employed to constrain the leasing period and reclaim leased resources, as well constrain the access of certain users to specific operations on the leased resources. Policies may be created via a UI that automatically generates a policy encoding. The policy is registered and accessed via a policy store. When multiple policies target a common resource, merging strategies are applied to the multiple policies.

Abstract: A hybrid state for a virtual machine (VM) in a cloud computing system enables a VM to communicate with other VMs that belong to a virtual network (VNET VMs) while maintaining connectivity with other VMs that do not belong to the virtual network (non-VNET VMs). A non-VNET VM can be transitioned to a hybrid VM that operates in a hybrid state. The hybrid VM can be assigned a private virtual IP address (VNET address) for communication with other VNET VMs. The hybrid VM can continue to use a physical IP address to communicate with other non-VNET VMs. In this way, the hybrid VM is able to maintain connectivity with other non-VNET VMs during and after migration to the VNET. A network stack can be configured to process data packets that are destined for non-VNET VMs differently from data packets that are destined for VNET VMs.

Abstract: An instrumentation analysis system processes data streams by executing instructions specified using a data stream language program. The data stream language allows users to specify a search condition using a find block for identifying the set of data streams processed by the data stream language program. The set of identified data streams may change dynamically. The data stream language allows users to group data streams into sets of data streams based on distinct values of one or more metadata attributes associated with the input data streams. The data stream language allows users to specify a threshold block for determining whether data values of input data streams are outside boundaries specified using low/high thresholds. The elements of the set of data streams input to the threshold block can dynamically change. The low/high threshold values can be specified as data streams and can dynamically change.
