  • Publication number: 20180144165
    Abstract: Embodiments are generally, and without limitation, related to devices, systems, and methods that allow one or more users to store objects, in a fixed storage in a remote storage enclosure, that the user can have shipped to themselves anywhere. More specifically, but without limitation, a user sends objects directly or indirectly from a merchandise provider, to a fixed storage provided by a storage concierge at a Unique Address assigned to the user by the storage concierge. The storage concierge tags each object with an unique code and creates an inventory of each object it receives for the user. The storage concierge processes each object and then stores the objects in the user's fixed storage associated with the Unique Address. When the user needs one or more objects, the user requests the objects to shipped to a desired location. The storage concierge takes the objects from the fixed storage and ships them accordingly.

  • Patent number: 9762639
    Abstract: Timestamps for streams of media that transition from one media source to another (such as from live content to on-demand content, and vice versa) can be rewritten by a server to help ensure error-free streaming by the client. Embodiments can coordinate the creation of a client manifest with the dynamic creation of a requested segment of media (i.e., “chunk”) to determine how to rewrite timestamps of requested chunks such that they are continuous through the transition.

  • Publication number: 20170140443
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for dynamically creating index files for streaming media based on a determined chunking strategy. The chunking strategy can be determined using historical data of any of a variety of factors, such as Quality of Service (QoS) information. By using historical data in this manner, index files can be generated using chunking strategies that can improve these factors over time.

  • Patent number: 9515980
    Abstract: A method or system for transferring information during the domain name service (DNS) lookup to more effectively utilizing the content delivery network (CDN) is disclosed. Information gathered from DNS request is used to identify information on how to serve the content with a chosen IP address returned from the DNS lookup. The DNS server selects from a number of possible IP addresses after analyzing information from the DNS request and popularity of associated content. The different IP addresses will result in different edge servers providing content. An IP address could be provided for popular content in a way that will tend to populate more content caches from the pool of edge servers in one embodiment.
