Abstract: In some aspects, an aggregation system of a cloud system may receive, by an aggregation system of a cloud system and from a data catalog, one or more events from one or more data sources of the cloud system, the one or more data sources having one or more resource types. The aggregation system may store event data to a message queue. The aggregation system of a cloud system may process, by one or more workers of the cloud system, a subset of events from the message queue at a time. The aggregation system may for each event in the subset of events: determine whether an event source has been updated based on information in the event. The aggregation system may in accordance with a determination that the event source has been updated, send an updated status to a dashboard, the dashboard configured to be displayed on a user device.

Abstract: A global state associated with a garbage collection (GC) process is a state assumed by a reference after GC operations for a current GC phase are performed for the reference. A frame state of a frame on a call stack of an application thread tracks a progress of GC operations for references therein. A color watermark is added after a global state change. The frame originally marked by a stack watermark is now marked by the new color watermark. The new color watermark marks a deepest frame on the call stack having the old global state. A color watermark is deleted when the stack watermark meets the color watermark. If the stack watermark is shifted in the call stack to mark the same frame as a color watermark, then the color watermark is deleted. The marked frame is a deepest frame on the call stack having the current global state.

Abstract: Resource allocation limitations include resource limits and resource guarantees. A consumer is vulnerable to interruption by other consumers if using more resources than guaranteed. Resources are designated and/or assigned consumers based on resource limits and resource guarantees. A constraint programming (CP) solver determines resource limits and resource guarantees that minimize vulnerability and/or vulnerability cost based on resource usage data. A CP data model includes limit elements, guarantee elements, and vulnerability elements. The CP data model further includes guarantee-vulnerability constraints, which relies on exceedance distributions generated from resource usage data for the consumers. The CP data model declaratively expresses combinatorial properties of a problem in terms of constraints. CP is a form of declarative programming.

Abstract: Techniques for transitioning between memory segment views include: instantiating a first memory segment view that confines access to a memory segment to a first thread; receiving a request to transition ownership of the memory segment to a second thread; responsive to receiving the request to transition ownership of the memory segment to the second thread: instantiating a second memory segment view that permits access to the memory segment by the second thread; copying metadata from the first memory segment view to the second memory segment view; terminating the first memory segment view, to prevent access to the memory segment via the first memory segment view.

Abstract: Techniques for data augmentation for training chatbot systems in natural language processing. In one particular aspect, a method is provided that includes generating a list of values to cover for an entity, selecting utterances from a set of data that have context for the entity, converting the utterances into templates, where each template of the templates comprises a slot that maps to the list of values for the entity, selecting a template from the templates, selecting a value from the list of values based on the mapping between the slot within the selected template and the list of values for the entity; and creating an artificial utterance based on the selected template and the selected value, where the creating the artificial utterance comprises inserting the selected value into the slot of the selected template that maps to the list of values for the entity.

Abstract: Discussed herein is a technique for replication of keys across regions of a cloud infrastructure. A first vault is created in a first region. The first vault stores a plurality of records, each of which is associated with a key and corresponding metadata. A second region, different from the first region, is selected where replication of the plurality of records is desired. A second vault is created in the second region. The plurality of records are relayed from the first vault to the second vault, so that each of the plurality of records is replicated in the second vault based on an entropy value of the record. A mutation operation executed with respect to the first vault is stored as a new record in the first vault. The new record is transmitted to the second vault, which is updated to reflect the mutation operation performed on the first vault.

Abstract: Techniques for governing access to third-party application programming interfaces (API's) are disclosed. A proxy service exposes an API configured to receive requests, from user-facing services, to perform functions of backend services. The proxy service stores a usage policy that defines a criterion that is (a) different from any authorization criterion and (b) associated with using a function of a backend service. The proxy service receives a request to perform the function of the first backend service for a user-facing service and determines that the request does not satisfy the usage policy. Based on determining that the request does not satisfy the usage policy, the proxy service refrains from accessing the backend service to perform the function responsive to the request, and transmits an alert to the user-facing service indicating that the request does not satisfy the usage policy.

Abstract: Techniques for initiating system actions based on text content are disclosed. A system applies a semantic analysis model at run-time to human-understandable text to identify actionable content within the human-understandable text. The system analyzes metadata associated with the text to identify a mapping between one or more data objects associated and the semantic content in the text. The system identifies one or more contact lists associated, respectively, with the one or more data objects. Using a database schema, the system analyzes the contact lists to determine whether to modify the contact lists.

Abstract: A unidirectional transfer protocol allows data to be transmitted from a non-secure network into a secure network. A non-secure gateway may receive data and/or information, intended for the secure network, from one or more devices. The gateway may fragment the data and/or information into smaller chunks and transmit the chunks to a secure gateway via a unidirectional communication channel. The secure gateway may verify the chunks using one or more rules and reassemble the chunks when the data is validated. The reassembled data may be sent across a secure network enclave. The unidirectional transfer protocol may provide a hardware-agnostic solution for transmitting data over a unidirectional communication channel.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for prediction of an buffer pool size (BPS). Before performing BPS prediction, gathered data are used to determine whether a target workload is in a steady state. Historical utilization data gathered while the workload is in a steady state are used to predict object-specific BPS components for database objects, accessed by the target workload, that are identified for BPS analysis based on shares of the total disk I/O requests, for the workload, that are attributed to the respective objects. Preference of analysis is given to objects that are associated with larger shares of disk I/O activity. An object-specific BPS component is determined based on a coverage function that returns a percentage of the database object size (on disk) that should be available in the buffer pool for that database object. The percentage is determined using either a heuristic-based or a machine learning-based approach.

The techniques comprise creating a sample dataset to represent an original dataset, building a query workload modeler to characterize a full workload of queries, constructing a clustering quality evaluator to evaluate query performance on a dataset with a certain clustering on the columns, finding a clustering solution by evaluating different applications of the workload to the sample dataset corresponding to different clusterings, and determining which columns of the clustering solution could benefit from zone maps.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include implementing fabric availability and synchronization (FAS) agents within a fabric network. In one example, a first FAS agent executing on a first network device may receive, from a second network device, a command to modify a configuration of a second network device. The first FAS may upgrade the configuration of the first network device based on the command from a current configuration to a new configuration. The first FAS agent increment a state identifier associated with the configuration of the first network device to a new state identifier associated with the new configuration. The first FAS agent may then transmit a control packet that includes the new state identifier. A second FAS agent executing on the second network device may receive the control packet and execute the command to update the configuration of the second network device to the new configuration.

Abstract: A hardware-assisted Distributed Memory System may include software configurable shared memory regions in the local memory of each of multiple processor cores. Accesses to these shared memory regions may be made through a network of on-chip atomic transaction engine (ATE) instances, one per core, over a private interconnect matrix that connects them together. For example, each ATE instance may issue Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs), with or without responses, to an ATE instance associated with a remote processor core in order to perform operations that target memory locations controlled by the remote processor core. Each ATE instance may process RPCs (atomically) that are received from other ATE instances or that are generated locally. For some operation types, an ATE instance may execute the operations identified in the RPCs itself using dedicated hardware. For other operation types, the ATE instance may interrupt its local processor core to perform the operations.
