Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to a method for deploying workflows. The method may include receiving, by a platform controller of a domain, a workflow portion and workflow constraints from a service controller of a federated controller, provisioning, by the platform controller, a set of devices in the domain to the workflow portion, executing the workflow portion in the domain using the set of devices, monitoring the executing of the workflow portion to determine an occupancy of the workflow portion, making a determination that the occupancy of the workflow portion exceeds an available capacity of the domain, providing, based on the determination, the occupancy to the service controller, and in response to the occupancy, performing, by the service controller, a remediation action.

Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to a method for deploying workflows with data management services.

Abstract: A method for managing computing resources includes obtaining, by a resource use manager, a physical asset request from a client, in response to the physical asset request: initiating allocation of a landing area device to the client based on the physical asset request, determining a physical asset to be provided to the client, sending, to a manufacturer, a physical asset preparation request, obtaining a confirmation of deployment of the physical asset from the client, performing a restoration on the physical asset using a most recent landing area incremental backup, and after the initiating the restoration, initiating a transfer of operation from the landing area device to the physical asset.

Abstract: A deployment manager for managing a deployment includes storage for storing an asset management request and an asset manager. The asset manager obtains the asset management request for an asset of the deployment; in response to obtaining the asset management request: places the asset into a management mode that enables at least one physical component of the asset to be physically managed; manages the asset based on the asset management request while in the management mode; and places the asset into an active mode that disables the at least one physical component of the asset to be physically managed.

Abstract: A method and system for preemptive caching across content delivery networks. Specifically, the disclosed method and system entail proactively seeding (or deploying) resources to edge nodes of a content delivery network based on prospective information sources such as, for example, travel itineraries, map route plans, calendar appointments, etc. Resource delivery deadlines and destinations may be derived from these prospective information sources in order to preemptively direct and cache resources near these resource delivery destinations (i.e., geo-locations) prior to or by the expected times (i.e., future point-in-times) during which a resource requestor and/or consumer is anticipated to be positioned at or within proximity to the resource delivery destinations. Through proactive seeding of resources, which may reflect content or service functionalities, reduced latency may be observed at least with respect to requesting the resources from the content delivery network.

Abstract: A method for managing data includes obtaining, by a first data node, a notification, wherein the first data node is associated with a first power zone group (PZG), and in response to the notification: selecting a second data node, wherein the second data node is not associated with the first PZG, sending a data processing request to the second data node, obtaining a response based on the data processing request, wherein the response specifies a confirmation by the second data node to service the data processing request, storing a ledger entry in a ledger service that indicates the confirmation, and initiating a data transfer based on the data processing request, wherein the first data node is associated with the PZG based on a primary power source of the first data node.

Abstract: A method for managing pool device resources, the method comprising obtaining, by a resource use manager, a plurality of data points, generating a resource prediction model based on the plurality of data points, and initiating access to a PCI bus device operating on a pool device using a virtual switch operating on a second pool device based on the resource prediction model.

Abstract: A method for managing pool device resources, the method comprising: obtaining, by a digital twin service, a digital twin generation request, wherein the digital twin generation request specifies a pool device, identifying a plurality of PCI bus device being used by the pool device associated with the digital twin generation request, obtaining configuration information associated with the plurality of PCI bus devices, initiating a resource allocation using a virtual switch to access a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus device on a second pool device based on the configuration information and the plurality of PCI bus devices, performing performance calculations on the PCI bus device based on the resource allocation, and storing a result of the performance calculations.

Abstract: In general, in one aspect, the invention relates to a method for managing pool device resources, the method including obtaining, by a distribution manager, a resource use request from a user application, wherein the user application and the distribution manager are operating on a pool device, identifying a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus device, wherein the PCI bus device is located on a second pool device and connected to a pool device resource on the second pool device, and initiating access to the PCI bus device using a virtual switch operating on the pool device.

Abstract: An apparatus comprises at least one container host device implementing containers for respective tenants of a multi-tenant environment. The containers are configured to utilize storage resources of at least one storage platform. A given one of the containers comprises at least one application, and an application file system security layer configured to communicate with the storage platform. The application file system security layer comprises a container storage volume supported by the storage platform, and an encryption engine configured to encrypt and decrypt data of the container storage volume utilizing one or more data encryption keys that are encrypted under a tenant-specific key encryption key. The tenant-specific key encryption key is provided to the application file system security layer by a tenant key manager that is external to the container. The tenant key manager is illustratively controlled by the tenant for which the given container is implemented.

Abstract: A first virtual network storage function instance associated with a first portion of at least one network is configured to communicate with at least a second virtual network storage function instance associated with a second portion of the at least one network. The first and second virtual network storage function instances collectively comprise at least part of a virtual network storage function layer configured to interact with an underlying storage layer providing access to physical storage comprising a plurality of storage elements. The first and second virtual network storage function instances are configured to implement at least one data service that involves processing data obtained from at least one of the storage elements via at least one of the first and second portions of the at least one network, responsive to analytics performed by at least one of the first and second virtual network storage function instances.
