Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, are described for implementing intelligent seating for wellness monitoring. A system obtains data from a first sensor integrated in an intelligent seating apparatus at a property. The first data indicates a potential abnormal condition of a person at the property. The system determines that the person has an abnormal condition based on the first data corresponding to the person having used the seating apparatus. Based on the abnormal condition, the system provides an indication to a client device of the person to prompt the person to adjust their use of the seating apparatus. The system also obtains visual indications of the abnormal condition, determines the type of abnormal condition afflicting the person, and determines a wellness command with instructions for alleviating the abnormal condition. The wellness command is provided for display on the client device.
Abstract: The system and method described herein provide an order fulfillment database system. The order fulfillment database system may provide a high throughput speed, high availability, redundancy, and scalability. The order fulfillment database system supports very fast transaction times for atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability (ACID) transactions. Order services instances at a primary cluster provide in-memory databases that service segments of the persistent database and are associated with different order fulfillment entities. A routing manager routes database messages to the appropriate order services instance. A secondary cluster of order services instances provides redundancy. A retry procedure preserves the integrity of the database transactions based on a current operational state of the primary order services instances.

Abstract: A communication method and system according to the present invention generates a unique cryptographically secure URI in response to receiving a user post. The user post and URI are stored temporarily. The URI is sent to an intended recipient. In response to a first instance of accessing the URI, the content is retrieved and sent to the intended recipient. The original uploaded content and URI are then deleted. In response to subsequent instances of accessing the URI, random content determined in part by a current environmental state of the communication, is returned. Recent subsequent instances can return thematically similar content.
