Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein for launching updated firmware file system (FFS) files of an updated firmware. Original FFS files may be stored in a first firmware volume and updates to any of the original FFS files may be stored as updated FFS files in a second firmware volume. When booting up a computer system with an original FFS file and a corresponding updated FFS file, either the original FFS file or the updated FFS file may be executed based at least in part on an indication of the updated FFS file in one of either a black list or a launch list. The first time a computer system is boot up after storing an updated FFS file in the second firmware volume, the updated FFS file may be executed to determine whether the execution of the updated FFS file warrants inclusion in either the black list or the launch list.

Abstract: Generally described, one or more aspects of the present application correspond to an artificial intelligence (AI) system that helps developers build failure-resilient microservices. The AI system can analyze the code of a microservice to identify other, similar microservices, and then use historical data about performance of those similar microservices to build a failure model for the microservice. The AI system can also automatically run failure tests based on the failure model, and can suggest code changes (based on analyzing historical code changes and test performance data) that can help a microservice become resilient to a particular failure.

Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein for updating a firmware file system (FFS) file by preserving the original FFS file in its current firmware volume and then storing an updated version of the original FFS file in a firmware volume for updated FFS files. The updated FFS file may be stored in the firmware volume for updated FFS files referenced to the same FFS file identifier as the original FFS file. During boot-up of a system incorporating the updated firmware, the firmware volume for updated FFS files may be accessed to determine if an updated version of any FFS files are present. If updated FFS files are present, then those updated FFS files may be executed, rather than the original FFS files.
