  • Patent number: 11481325
    Abstract: A system for managing a virtual machine is provided. The system includes a processor configured to initiate a session for accessing a virtual machine by accessing an operating system image from a system disk and monitor read and write requests generated during the session. The processor is further configured to write any requested information to at least one of a memory cache and a write back cache located separately from the system disk and read the operating system image content from at least one of the system disk and a host cache operably coupled between the system disk and the at least one processor. Upon completion of the computing session, the processor is configured to clear the memory cache, clear the write back cache, and reboot the virtual machine using the operating system image stored on the system disk or stored in the host cache.

  • Publication number: 20220337471
    Abstract: Managing performance of elements providing a session via a multi-hop network topology is provided. A system receives values for factors associated with elements that form hops in a multi-hop network topology. The system determines a performance metric for each hop using the values for one or more factors selected from the factors. The system identifies a hop of the hops as having a performance issue based on the performance metric for the hop exceeding a threshold. The system selects, responsive to the performance metric of the hop exceeding the threshold, an action to take on at least one element forming the hop.

  • Patent number: 11477281
    Abstract: Methods and systems for delivering data for cluster computing are described herein. A worker device may receive a dataset and store the dataset in a local storage media. This may prevent the need for the dataset to be sent over a network each time the applications are used to perform a task. Each application may be able to access the dataset in the local storage area. This may prevent the need to copy the dataset to memory associated with each application. A worker device may store a dataset, for example, if it determines that the frequency of updates to the dataset satisfy a threshold. The worker device may receive updates to the dataset via a messaging system and may store the updated data in the local storage media.

  • Patent number: 11477188
    Abstract: Methods and systems for injection of tokens or certificates for managed application communication are described. A computing device may intercept a request from an application executable on the computing device, the request being to access a remote resource. The computing device may modify future network communications between the computing device and the remote resource to include a token or a client certificate, where the token or the client certificate is an identifier that enables the future network communications to be routed to the remote resource for a given computing session without use of data from the remote resource or data indicative of a connection of the remote resource in which to receive the future network communications. The computing device may send the future network communications to the remote resource to enable action to be taken on behalf of the computing device in response to receipt of the future network communications.

  • Publication number: 20220329624
    Abstract: A system to identify automated submissions of web pages, such as those submitted by bots, in real time. The system comprising a processor configured to update an initial version of a requested web page with at least one hidden field, transmit the updated web page to the client, then, upon receipt parse the completed web page, and identify if a data entry is associated with the at least one hidden field. Where a data entry is associated with the at least one hidden field, the system blocks the transmission of the completed web page to the server. Where a data entry is not associated with the at least one hidden field the system removes the at least one hidden field, and transmits the final web page to the server.

    Abstract: System and methods discussed for automatically optimizing application and notification delivery based on user preferences and historical application usage. Applications that a user is likely to want to use at the present time or in the near future are displayed in an organizationally distinct way in an application catalog so they are easy to find and are pre-loaded on an application delivery server so they are available with minimal system lag caused by application loading processes. Application notifications are also optimized such that notifications that are likely to be relevant to users at the current time are identified and presented to them in an organizationally distinct way.
