Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for providing a functionality which is selectable to undo one or more changes to metadata in a computing environment. In an embodiment, one or more source objects, stored by a version control system (VCS), represent one or more previous metadata changes. In response to a detection of the one or more metadata changes, an element of a user interface is configured to be selectable for undoing the one or more metadata changes. In another embodiment, a subsequent selection of the element invokes a retrieval of the one or more source objects from the VCS. Based on the retrieval of the one or more source objects from the VCS, a compilation is performed to generate a program which is executed to undo the one or more metadata changes.

Abstract: A method involves utilizing a geo-locator service and zone servers to reduce server resource requirements for determining high quality solutions to routing problems. The use of a geo-locator service and zone servers enables the use of servers having less memory which can handle determination of high quality solutions to routing problems involving locations spanning a smaller geographic area even if they are incapable of handling determination of high quality solutions to routing problems involving locations spanning a larger geographic area, and enables efficient assignment of requests to an appropriate server without unduly burdening high value servers having sufficient memory to handle determination of high quality solutions to routing problems involving locations spanning a very large geographic area with determination of high quality solutions to routing problems involving locations spanning a smaller geographic area.

Abstract: A system may include a mocking server and one or more tenants served by the mocking server. A tenant may test an application programming interface (API) using a mocking service. For example, the mocking server may run a mock implementation of an API based on an API specification, and the server may expose an endpoint of the mock implementation for API testing. In some cases, the API specification may use an additional service. The mocking server may need an implementation for this additional service in order to test the API. For improved efficiency and reliability of the mocking service, the mocking server may store pre-configured mock implementations for various service or complementary APIs, which can be publicly accessed and shared across multiple different tenants. The pre-configured mock implementations may enable a user to test an API without providing a mock implementation for each additional service indicated in the API specification.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments are related to Master Data Management (MDM) technologies. Each DB entity (record) in component databases (DB) is represented as a judgment, and an MDM system unifies judgments obtained from the component DBs into a unified set of judgments. In the unified set of judgments, linkages are judgments asserting that particular DB entities from different DBs are the same/similar, and a golden record comprises field values describing each of the DB entities. In making judgments, the MDM system consolidates judgments (or records) describing the same subject into a single judgment, and performs updates to field values in a manner that does not violate referential integrity. Each update is associated with an MDM consistent state. Updates in the form of judgments are provided to the relevant component DBs, which are converted into serializable transactions associated with respective MDM consistent states. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
