Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for processing east-west queries in an application programming interface (API) generated for a plurality of associated services. The method generally includes receiving, at a request gateway from a requesting service, a request to invoke a function exposed by a first service through the API. References to entities defined in a declarative schema for one or more second services are identified based on identifiers included a record retrieved from a data repository for an entity returned by the function. A message is published on a message bus to the one or more second services to retrieve information related to the referenced entities. A response message including objects associated with the referenced entities is consumed. The function is executed based on the objects associated with the referenced entities, and the result generated by executing the function is returned to the requesting service.

The workflow template can accelerate the design and construction of custom automation workflows. An orchestration layer included in the workflow construction system will also improve the performance of systems that execute the automation workflows by dynamically scaling the processing capacity, memory, and storage of servers and other systems hosting the model file instances of the automation workflows to ensure the available resources meet the demands of users completing processes using the automation workflows.

Abstract: Reduction in latency between question submissions and response submissions in a question and answer based customer support system is reduced by facilitating the use of mobile devices by customer support personnel to submit question responses. The answerability of a question from a mobile device is predicted by analyzing the attributes of the question itself before the answer is generated. Questions being entered into the question and answer based customer support system that are conveniently answerable from a mobile device are routed to a mobile question and answer queue that enables mobile device users to review and respond to the mobile device answerable questions. A question is determined to be answerable from a mobile device if a predicted answer to the question has a length that is within a predetermined threshold, so that customer support personnel are not burdened with generating long responses from mobile devices.

Abstract: At least one processor of a central authority separate from a computing process may establish a first trust relationship between the computing process and a central authority separate from the computing process.

Abstract: Dialog systems, such as chatbots, enable a user to query for information of a data management system. However, a user's query may be ambiguous resulting in a reply of too much information that is incomprehensible to a user. Clarifying questions are posed to a user to remove ambiguity from a user's query, and based on a user's answers, the volume of replying information is reduced to an amount that a user can comprehend. Clarifying questions are efficiently sequenced to reduce the ambiguity of a user's query, such that the number of clarifying questions does not result in a user abandoning the user's query.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for determining crash similarity based on stack traces and user actions associated with a crash event and handling crash events based on the determined crash similarity. An example method generally includes receiving a crash report for a crash event recorded during execution of a software application. A similarity score is generated between the received crash report and one or more historical crash reports associated with historical crash events recorded during execution of the software application. A target set of historical crash reports is selected based on the generated similarity scores for each respective historical crash report. The target set of historical crash reports generally includes crash reports having generated similarity scores exceeding a threshold similarity score. One or more actions are taken to process the received crash report based on the target set of historical crash reports.
