  • Publication number: 20230098165
    Abstract: Methods and systems described herein correlate an incoming alert, regarding events that affect service performance, availability, and security in a cloud services platform, with an existing incident record, stored in remote storage, to enable improved incident handling. Alert information is applied to machine-learning models to correlate the incoming alert to a parent incident record. In rule-based correlation, a local cache stores query signatures (keys) and information related to respective incident records (values). A correlation rule is retrieved for the alert, and a correlation query is constructed based on the alert and the rule. A query signature is generated and used as a cache key to access information about a respective parent incident in storage. If the parent information is not found in the cache, the remote storage is searched for the parent incident record using the correlation query. The alert and correlated parent incident record are associated in remote storage.

  • Patent number: 8914824
    Abstract: Systems and methods for video ad delivery using configurable dynamic video ad policies are provided. A system for delivering video ads to a video client may include an ad platform service. The ad platform service may have a media registration module configured to receive input data including a video ad policy and associated metadata and digital video content from a digital video content client. The ad platform service may further include a registration database configured to store input data received from the media registration module. The ad platform service may further include a manifest service and an associated manifest generation engine, wherein the manifest service may be configured to receive an ad manifest request from a video client. In response, the manifest generation engine may be configured to generate a manifest instance based on input data received at the manifest service, the manifest service being configured to send the manifest instance to the video client.
