Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for monitoring server utilization and reallocating resources using upper bound values. A device can determine a value indicative of an upper bound of a processing load of a server using data points detected for the processing load over a first range of time. The upper bound can correspond to a percentage of the processing load during the first range of time. The device can monitor, using the value, the processing load of the server over a second range of time. A determination can be made whether the value of the processing load is greater than a threshold during the second range of time. The device can generate an alert for the device responsive to a comparison of the value of the processing load to the threshold.

Abstract: An information exchange platform receives a file from a client system and processes the file for delivery to a trading partner (TP) of the client system. The TP does not need to be a client of the information exchange platform. So long as the file has some identifying information such as an email address that uniquely identifies the TP within a custom solution for the client system, the information exchange platform can automatically and programmatically provision the TP. An auto-provisioning subsystem is operable to create and/or configure information needed to complete the processing of the file just in time, including creating a legal entity and a routing address for the TP. When completed, the file is processed into a deliverable, which is then provided for delivery to the TP just in time as the file is received from the client system.

Abstract: Requests for data can be distributed among servers based on indicators of intent to access the data. For example, a kernel of a client device can receive a message from a software application. The message can indicate that the software application intends to access data at a future point in time. The kernel can transmit an electronic communication associated with the message to multiple servers. The kernel can receive a response to the electronic communication from a server of the multiple servers. Based on the response and prior to receiving a future request for the data from the software application, the kernel can select the server from among the multiple servers as a destination for the future request for the data.

A first outbound routing agent associated with the first device may route the request to a second outbound routing agent associated with the second device, wherein the second outbound routing agent routes the request to the second client device to cause the second client device to generate a response. A first inbound routing agent associated with the first device may receive the response from a second inbound routing agent associated with the second device, and may provide the response to the first client device.

Abstract: Techniques for described for invoking a chatbot in a chatbot system, in response to an event notification from a software application. The event notification can be sent to the chatbot system based on the software application determining that one or more conditions associated with an event are satisfied. In certain embodiments, the event notification contains information indicating a dialog flow state for starting a new conversation between a particular chatbot and a user. The event notification can also identify the user and/or the particular chatbot. In some instances, a prompt is output to the user requesting the user to confirm a start of the new conversation. Whether the prompt is output or not can depend on whether there is an existing conversation between the user and a chatbot in the chatbot system.
