Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying a user guide in a Client Virtual Application (“CVA”). The methods include determining, by a client device, a position associated with a user interaction in CVA. The position of the user interaction may be a mouse position relative to the CVA's window or a position of a widget of CVA's window with which the user is interacting via an input device. The client device transfers the position data and application name to a server device on the network. The server device subsequently retrieves, from a content datastore, user guide content associated with the application and position, and transfer the user guide content for rendering on the client device. The server device may also determine a display position and send it to the client device. The client device may render the user guide according to a rendering policy.

Abstract: A client may send to a provider network a request to classify data at one or more data sources of the client network. The provider network receives the request and transmits the request to a local instance of a network-based data classification service at the client network. The local instance of the network-based data classification service classifies the data at the one or more data sources. The data is not exposed outside of a data isolation boundary associated with the client network during classification of the data by the local instance of the network-based data classification service. The provider network may initially provision the local instance of the network-based data classification service to run on the client network.
