Abstract: Processing logic may obtain a resource of a platform fora containerized application. The platform may include custom resources, and an operator that manages the custom resources during runtime of the containerized application. In response to an indication being defined in the resource, processing logic may schedule an upgrade to a new operator. Processing logic may perform one or more pre-installation actions or post-installation actions that are defined in the resource to manage the installation of the new operator in a controlled manner and reduce the risk of incompatibilities between the new operator and the custom resources.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes a processor decoding a first document output by a first deployment tool to construct a deployment parameter missing from a deployment validation rule in the first document. The processor creates a second document using the constructed deployment parameter and submits the second document to a second deployment tool to load the deployment validation rule into the second deployment tool.

Abstract: This present application describes one or more embodiments of methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and systems provide developer tools for generating and providing visualizations of data densities for various portions of a computer application. For example, the systems can determine a data density that reflects a ratio or an amount of data presented within a (portion of a) display window relative to the entire (portion of the) display window. The systems can further provide a visual representation of a data density for display on a client device, along with indications or suggestions for how to improve (e.g., reduce or increase) the data density for better comprehensibility (e.g., upon distribution of the application). In certain embodiments, the systems can generate suggestions based on an application type of a computer application in development and/or based on a function associated with a particular (portion of a) display window.

Abstract: Techniques and solutions are described for defining and deploying application content. Content, such as objects, can be created in a repository defined for a first application. A package can be defined based at least in part on the objects for use in a computing environment only requiring the first application. A second package can be defined based at least in part on the objects for use in a computing environment in which both the first application and a second application are available. Content can be moved between repositories defined for a single application and repositories defined for multiple applications. Content can be added to, or removed from, a client computing system as applications available on a client computing system change.

Abstract: Validating actions in a digital assistant-based application is provided. The system identifies an application with a conversational interface. The system selects an action from an action repository and generates, via a natural language processor, a trigger phrase for input into the application. The system executes the application to process the trigger phrase to identify an action of the application. The system identifies a parameter used by the application to execute the action, and generates, based on the parameter and via execution of the conversational interface of the application, a first query responsive to the trigger phrase. The system generates a first response to the first query for input into the application. The system determines, based on execution of the application to process the first response, a state of the application. The system evaluates the state to determine an error code and provide a notification based on the error code.

Abstract: Techniques for evaluating software systems are provided, including measurement of performance ratings of features of an app-under-test are described. The evaluation may include analysis of a video recording of the user interface of the app-under-test, where the video analysis may include comparing the changes over time of co-located pixel in the video to produce a performance rating, for example a speed index. The results of multiple such tests can be compared by comparing the performance rating produced during execution of different tests.

Abstract: A tracing coprocessor that records execution trace data based on a cache coherency protocol (CCP) message. The tracing coprocessor comprises logic that causes the tracing coprocessor to listen on a bus that is communicatively coupled to a primary processor that executes executable code instructions. The logic also causes the tracing coprocessor to, based on listening on the bus, identify at least one CCP message relating to activity at a processor cache. The logic also causes the tracing coprocessor to identify, from the at least one CCP message, a memory cell consumption by the primary processor. The logic also causes the tracing coprocessor to initiate logging, into an execution trace, at least a memory cell data value consumed by the primary processor in connection with execution of at least one executable code instruction.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for software development or modification. Systems transform interactions with physical blocks by a human developer on an activity surface into computer-understandable digital information or logic for developing or modifying software (e.g., websites or mobile applications) in real-time or near real-time. The physical blocks are representative of software elements used in software development. For example, the structures, colors, shapes or hardness/softness/squeeze/bend/flex/elastic/shape-memory/rigid properties, whether symmetrical or asymmetrical, whether open-shaped or close-shaped of the physical blocks can determine which software elements are being developed and the arrangement of the blocks can be mapped to how the software elements are to be included in the software. Users located remotely from the developer can provide annotations or feedback to the software being developed in real-time.

Abstract: A change to a first version of source code of an application that is running with a debugger attached is identified, resulting in a second version of the source code. It is determined whether the change occurred with corresponding software suspended or not. The change is applied to the software without restarting the software, based on applying the change using edit and continue (EnC) when the change occurred with the software suspended, or applying the change using hot reload when the change occurred with the software not suspended. Subsequently, the software is suspended, and debug state is presented. The presentation includes presenting the second version of the source code after EnC, or after hot reload and when the software is suspended in an updated memory entity; or presenting the first version of the source code after hot reload and when the software is suspended in a stale memory entity.

The frontend service may access a plugin catalog to determine at least one plugin compatible with the database management application and provide an indication of the at least one plugin to the first user. The frontend service may receive from the first user a selection of a first plugin from the at least one plugin and call a plugin installer service executing at the cloud environment to install the first plugin to the database management application.

Abstract: Systems and methods in accordance with various embodiments of the invention perform lossless source coding. Nested code structures are utilized to perform Random Access Source Coding (RASC), where the number of active encoders is initially unknown. Decoders can attempt to source decode using a number of Slepian-Wolf decoders corresponding to an estimated number of sources. Multiple source encoders are configured to receive start messages and transmit portions of codewords, selected by source encoding data from sources to remove redundancy, until an end of epoch message is received.
