Publication number: 20240193697Abstract: A computer-implemented method for recommending a best driver to get best vehicle rental and insurance costs. The method builds a framework of a group of multiple driving candidates to select from to be a driver of a rental vehicle. The method further determines a driving score based on the collected set of data and generates an aggregate ranking of each of the multiple driving candidates based on the driving score. The method further computes an insurance cost for each of the multiple driving candidates based on the driving score and calculates a vehicle rental and insurance cost for each of the multiple driving candidates, based on the driving score. The method further ranks each of the multiple driving candidates based on the respective calculated vehicle rental cost and insurance cost and recommends a highest ranked candidate as the best driver to receive the best vehicle rental and insurance costs.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2022Publication date: June 13, 2024Inventors: Hamid Majdabadi, Jeremy R.

Publication number: 20240103896Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for scaling a resource of a Database as a Service (DBaaS) cluster in a cloud platform. User service requests from a service cluster to be processed by the DBaaS cluster are received. A first set of tracing data is generated by a service mesh, which facilitates service-to-service communication between the service cluster and the DBaaS cluster, from the user service requests. A second set of tracing data is generated by the DBaaS cluster from handling the user service requests. A dependency tree is then generated to discover application relationships to identify potential bottlenecks in nodes of the DBaaS cluster based on these sets of tracing data. The pod(s) of a DBaaS node are then scaled based on the dependency tree, which is used in part, to predict the utilization of the resources of the DBaaS node identified as being a potential bottleneck.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 24, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Peng Hui Jiang, Yue Wang, Jun Su, Su Liu, Sheng Yan Sun
