Abstract: When a user of a device set requests a presentation of a content item, the presentation is often carried out on the device with which the user initiated the request, or a different device that the user specifically chooses. The resulting presentation may exhibit lower quality than if the content item were presented using a different device of the device set, but the user may be unaware of the relative merits of the devices, or unwilling to perform the actions to transfer the presentation to a different device. Instead, an automated comparison of the device properties of the devices with the content properties of the content item may inform an automated identification, and recommendation to the user, of an alternative device that is more suitable for presenting the content item. If the user accepts the recommendation, the presentation of the content item may be transferred to the recommended device.

Abstract: A computing resource monitoring service receives a request to store a measurement for a metric associated with a computing resource. The computing resource monitoring service determines an identifier for the measurement and, using the identifier, selects a logical partition for storage of the measurement.

Abstract: Systems and methods of network telemetry caching and distribution are provided. The system can receive network telemetry data and store it as a plurality of data nodes. The system can maintain a node pointer map and a node pointer queue. If the system receives an update to a data node having a corresponding node pointer not already present in the node pointer map, the system can add the node pointer to the node pointer queue and to the node pointer map with a count of zero. If the node pointer is already present in the node pointer map, the system can increment the node count for the node pointer in the node pointer map and not add the node pointer to the node pointer queue. The system can transmit data values and node counts to the client device for each node pointer in the node pointer queue.

Abstract: A service request for communication services for communication clients is received. In response, a communication service network is set up to support the communication services. Routing metadata is generated for each of the communication clients. The routing metadata is to be used by each of the communication clients for sharing service quality information with a respective peer communication client over a light-weight peer-to-peer (P2P) network. The routing metadata is downloaded to each of the communication clients. A communication client may exchange service signaling packets or service data packets over the communication service network. When the communication client determines that there is a problematic region in a bitstream received from the communication server, the communication client can request a peer communication client for a service quality information portion related to the problematic region.
