Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for providing a user interface for dynamic site compilation in a cloud-based content hub environment. In accordance with an embodiment, embodiments provide a user interface that allows a non-technical user, as well as technical users, such as website developers, to “mark”, or flag, various components of a website or page. One category of such marks or flags can indicate that such items marked or flagged with this category of are to be dynamically loaded upon website access (e.g., fetched from a source and then loaded into a website for viewing), while another category of mark or flag can indicate items so marked to be fixed at compile time (e.g., static cache, that is the content is compiled within the published website).

Abstract: A user device containing sensors is delivered customized services without utilizing private user data or while only using it in highly constrained ways. This is accomplished by sending one or more queries to the user device. Each query requests a binary response and each query inquires whether or not the user device has obtained one or more specified parameter values, or range of parameter values, from one or more sensors incorporated in or in communication with the user device. For each query a binary response is received, which indicates that the user device has or has not obtained the one or more specified parameter values, or the range of parameter values, about which the respective query is inquiring.

Abstract: A broker system dynamically adjusts data processing techniques used by a network gateway for forwarding data over a network from a client system to an exchange system based on a switch mode parameter. The broker system dynamically adjusts the network gateway from using an error-propagating data processing technique (e.g. cut-through switching) to a non-error-propagating data processing technique (e.g. store and forward switching) based on the switch mode parameter. In particular, the broker system may adjust the network gateway when a count of unsuccessfully validated protocol data units meets a threshold specified by the switch mode parameter. While using the error-propagating technique, the broker system may modify a portion of the data protocol unit corresponding to a transport layer of a network protocol used by the network when a protocol data unit is unsuccessfully validated.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatus, and software for transitional caching in content delivery networks includes edge cache nodes configured to receive and reply to content requests. Content can be cached in edge cache nodes before receiving user requests or retrieved from an origin server. A transitional cache node array is configured to receive content requests from edge cache nodes and to receive origin content from edge cache nodes and/or origin servers, as well as to modify origin content to generate modified content. Modified content can include re-written origin content (e.g., translations), transcoded data (e.g., video), compressed or otherwise adjusted data (e.g., images), and transformed files (e.g., CSS and JavaScript files), among others. In addition to assisting with original and modified content flow to end users, transitional caching also can assist in threat detection and mitigation within a CDN, helping to protect the network, origin servers and the like.
