Abstract: Computing systems and related methods are provided for retrieving data residing behind a firewall. One exemplary method involves a server receiving a first request from a data transfer client, maintaining the first request in a first queue of requests associated with a data transfer agent coupled to the network via a firewall, and providing the first request from the first queue to the data transfer agent in response to a second request received from the data transfer agent. The server receives a first response from the data transfer agent, maintains the first response in a second queue of responses associated with the data transfer client, and provides the first response from the second queue to the data transfer client in response to a third request received from the data transfer client.

Abstract: An on-demand computing services environment provides computing services to clients via the Internet. The on-demand computing services environment may be associated with skills that each identify the use of a one or more features of the environment. Skill ratings associated with one or more of the skills may be identified for a user account. A recommendation profile for the user account may be determined based on the designated skill ratings and a skill graph indicating dependency relationships between the skills. The recommendation profile may identify one or more training modules to be completed in association with the user account. A recommendation message including one or more recommendations selected from the recommendation profile may be transmitted to the client machine.

Abstract: Cloud services release orchestration with a reusable deployment pipeline. According to some implementations, responsive to receiving from a COS controller parameters from configuration information provided to the COS controller while an app aware proxy routes production traffic to a first application (app) version that communicates with a database management system (DBMS) and that runs in container orchestration system (COS) pods having first app version containers, causing a validation of a second app version using COS pods having second app version containers that are now live after having been brought up by the COS controller responsive to the provision of the configuration information. After the validation, causing the transition to sending production traffic to the second app version containers that are determined to be live instead of to the first app version containers.

Abstract: A release orchestration mechanism for cloud services. According to some implementations, while an app aware proxy routes production traffic to a first application (app) version that runs in a plurality of container orchestration system (COS) pods having first app version containers, configuration information is received. When a threshold number of the COS pods having the second app version containers are live, a validation of the second app version is caused. Then a transition to sending production traffic to the second app version containers is performed. After causing the transition, timers are started based on a time period indicated in the configuration information and the first app version containers are instructed to gracefully shut down. Based on expiration of the timers, any of the COS pods having the first app version containers that are not yet shut down are forced to shut down.

Abstract: A system creates graph of nodes connected by edges. Each node represents corresponding value of corresponding attribute and is associated with count of corresponding value. Each edge is associated with count of instances that values represented by corresponding connected nodes are associated with each other. The system identifies each node associated with first count as first set of keys, and deletes each node associated with first count. The system identifies each edge associated with second count as second set of keys, and deletes each edge associated with second count. The system identifies each node associated with third count as third set of keys, and deletes each node associated with third count. The system identifies each edge associated with fourth count as fourth set of keys, and deletes each edge associated with fourth count. The system uses each set of keys to search and match records.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing authentication may include encrypting, by a server computing system, a question based on a first password associated with a user and based on successful verification of user identification to generate an encrypted question; transmitting, by the server computing system, the encrypted question to a user computing system; receiving, by the server computing system, an encrypted response from the user computing system, the encrypted response associated with the encrypted question; decrypting, by the server computing system, the encrypted response based on the first password to generate a response; and establishing, by the server computing system, a login session with the user computing system based on successful verification of the response.

Abstract: Disclosed are some examples of systems, apparatus, methods, and computer program products related to automatically causing a following relationship to be established in an enterprise social networking system between a user and one or more customer relationship management (CRM) records. In some implementations, a workflow is configurable at least in part by one or more selections defining one or more conditions. Responsive to determining that one or more properties associated with a first CRM record satisfies the one or more conditions, a user is caused to follow the first CRM record. The following enables or causes updates associated with the first CRM record to be shared in a feed of the enterprise social networking system, where the feed can be provided to the user's device. Information based on the following of the first CRM record by the user can be displayed at the device.

Abstract: A channel independent metadata representation of forms is stored by an online system that interacts with client devices via a plurality of messaging channels. The online system allows use of forms by various messaging channels. The online system receives a request identifying a form and a messaging channel. The online system retrieves a channel independent metadata representation of the selected form. The online system generates a channel specific representation of the selected form for the identified messaging channel from the metadata representation. The generated form representation is sent by the online system to the client device via the messaging channel. The client device may render a user interface comprising the form.

Abstract: A processor can receive a request for a list of items. The request can include a group identifier and search criteria. The search criteria can be configured to return the list of items. The processor can produce, using the group identifier and in response to the request, a determination about a location of a master key associated with the group identifier. The processor can produce, in response to the master key being in the cache, a lookup key. The lookup key can include the master key, the group identifier, and a form of the search criteria. The processor can produce, using a form of the lookup key, a determination about a location of the list of items. The processor can retrieve, in response to the list of items being in the cache, the list of items from the cache.

Abstract: A topic profile may be generated based on several words/phrases. The topic profile may include social media content items such as a social media post from a variety of social media sources. The topic profile may be presented to a user via a user interface that displays the one or more included/excluded words/phrases that may form the basis of a query for the topic profile. The user interface may display one or more representative social media content items and/or a word cloud of words/phrases related to the query. A user may select one or more words/phrases in the word cloud and/or one or more social media content items to be included in and/or excluded from the topic profile. The implementations disclosed herein may allow rapid filtering of a potentially large group of content items from potentially disparate social media sources.
