Abstract: Edge server cache techniques are described to prepopulate an edge server cache. The edge servers are configurable to maintain a first set of digital content that is currently made available via content requests to client devices. The edge servers are also configured to maintain a second set of digital content, separately, that is to be launched. The second set of digital content is not made publicly available until launch, but rather is “pre-warmed” in the caches of the respective edge servers. In an implementation, prelaunch access is provided using respective credentials, e.g., to verify operation of the second set of digital content using software and hardware resources at actual edge servers that implement the caches.

Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein provide dynamic permissions for controlling the display of messages directed to a presenter of a communication system. For example, during a presentation of an online meeting, a system may selectively permit private messages to be sent to a presenter from designated participants. The private messages sent from the designated participants are displayed to the presenter in a manner that does not allow the other participants to see the messages. For instance, if the presenter is sharing a screen from a computer, the system can determine a set of permitted users allowed to send messages to the presenter. The system configures permissions to cause the messages to be displayed in a manner that allows the presenter to view the messages along with their presentation content, while filtering pixels of the messages on the display of non-permitted users.
