  • Publication number: 20220400945
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention analyze readable text in digital content displayed in a user interface for color deficiencies based on a user profile and determine a first color deficiency is present based on the user profile associated with a user viewing the readable text in the digital content. Embodiments of the present invention identify a first color substitution for the first color deficiency based on the user profile, where the user profile includes a color palette with a plurality of variations of a plurality of recognizable colors by the user and the first color substitution is from the plurality of variations of recognizable colors by the user. Embodiments of the present invention display the first color substitution for the first color deficiency as an overlay on the digital content, where the overlay covers at least the first color deficiency.

  • Patent number: 11075874
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a gateway, a message for a recipient, responsive to the message being sent to the recipient at a first address. One or more rules are evaluated to select a preferred communication channel of the recipient, from among two or more communication channels. A channel-specific address of the recipient on the preferred communication channel is determined, where the channel-specific address differs from the first address. The message is directed, by the gateway, to the channel-specific address of the recipient to deliver the message to the recipient through the preferred communication channel.

  • Publication number: 20070233746
    Abstract: A facility is provided for transitioning a database service from a failing, primary server to another server of a computing environment including a plurality of servers, at least some of which have a common database service capability, but not commonly replicated supporting databases. The facility includes, responsive to detection of failure at the primary server, selecting another server of the plurality of servers to function as database service backup for the primary server, updating at least one configuration file of the computing environment to indicate that the another server is to function as database service backup for the primary, failing server, and dynamically creating at least one database structure at the another server. The dynamically created at least one database structure supports the database service backup function at the another server and corresponds to a database structure of a database supporting the database service at the primary server.

  • Publication number: 20070233865
    Abstract: A facility is provided for dynamically adjusting operating level of server processing within a computing environment including one or more servers processing multiple types of server tasks. The facility includes, responsive to detection of a failure at a server of the environment, determining a situational severity threshold for continued computing environment task processing, and automatically comparing the threshold against priority metrics for the multiple types of server tasks processed within the environment. Server processing of one or more types of server tasks having a priority metric below the situational severity threshold is then automatically blocked. The facility can also include dynamically adjusting of at least one priority metric associated with at least one type of server task to reflect a cause of the failure of the server, wherein the dynamically adjusting occurs prior to the automatic comparing of the situational severity threshold against the priority metrics.
