Abstract: A data stream monitor including a processor and associated memory initiates a data stream monitoring application. The data stream monitoring application is configured to test a plurality of data streams, and obtains a plurality of data stream records associated with the plurality of data streams to be tested. The data stream monitor writes a lastRecord indicator to a file. The lastRecord indicator identifies a last data stream to have been tested. The data streams are tested, and the lastRecord indicator is updated each time a subsequent data stream is tested. The data stream monitor determines whether a value of the lastRecord indicator has changed from a previous value. In response to determining that the value of the lastRecord indicator has not changed, testing of the plurality of data streams is restarted.

Abstract: A method for preferred network function (NF) location based routing using a service communication proxy (SCP) includes receiving a service request message from a consumer NF. The method further includes performing, by an SCP, a lookup in a preferred NF location routing rules database at the SCP using at least one parameter extracted from the service request message. The method further includes locating, by the SCP and in the preferred NF location routing rules database, a preferred NF location routing rule corresponding to the at least one parameter extracted from the service request message. The method further includes selecting, by the SCP, a producer NF to process the service request based on application of the preferred NF location routing rule. The method further includes routing, by the SCP, the service request message to the producer NF.

Abstract: Systems, methods and/or computer program products managing momentary increases in resource requirements of microservices within a service mesh using sliced replicas or pre-configured cloud functions. The service mesh tracks incoming API calls of applications requesting use of specific microservice capabilities. Over time capabilities being called are categorized by the service mesh based on call frequency. Service mesh predicts patterns of expected increases in requests for each capability of the microservices. As the increase in the number of API calls for the capability become more than a threshold level predicted by the service mesh, a sliced replica of the microservice is created or a pre-configured cloud function is enabled to handle requests specifically for the capability causing the momentary increase in resource requirements, while the service mesh continues routing API calls for other capabilities to the requested microservice.

Abstract: Systems and methods are presented herein for modifying messages transmitted between a first computing device and a second computing device based on the determination of a context of messages transmitted between the first and second computing devices. A first message, prepared to be transmitted to a second computing device, is prepared at a first computing device. Based on an identifier corresponding to the second computing device, a plurality of devices communicably coupled to the second computing device are determined. Selectable options are generated at the first computing device which, when selected, determine which of the second computing device or one of the plurality of communicably coupled devices will receive the transmitted message. Based on the selection of an option, the message may be modified to fit the format of the device corresponding to the selected option and transmitted to the device corresponding to the selected option.
