Patent number: 12248804Abstract: A multitenant deployment includes a computing cluster that executes multiple containerized instances of a software application. Each containerized instance is associated with one or more datastores that can be assigned to different tenants. A registry store maintains a mapping between tenants and datastores, thereby allowing a registry manager to properly route tenant requests to the correct datastores. A capacity manager tracks tenant usage of datastores in the registry store and then scales computing resources for each tenant in proportion to usage. The capacity manager also migrates tenant resources in response to catastrophic failures or upgrades. In this fashion, the multitenant deployment can adapt a single-tenant software application for multi-tenancy in a manner that is both transparent and secure for the tenant.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2023Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: SPLUNK Inc.Inventors: Ledio Ago, Ronnie Sun, Mathew Elting

Patent number: 12224919Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling a cloud-based IT and security operations application to execute playbooks containing custom code in a manner that mitigates types of risk related to the misuse of cloud-based resources and security of user data. Users use a client application to create and modify playbooks and, upon receiving input to save a playbook, the client application determines whether the playbook includes custom code. If the client application determines that the playbook includes custom code, the client application establishes a connection with a proxy application (also referred to as an “automation broker”) running in the user's own on-premises network and sends a representation of the playbook to the proxy application. The client application further sends to the IT and security operations application an identifier of the playbook and an indication that the playbook (or the custom code portions of the playbook) is stored within the user's on-premises network.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2024Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: SPLUNK Inc.Inventors: Chakravarthy Sridhar, Minjie Qiu, Atif Mahadik
