  • Patent number: 12088657
    Abstract: A method of delivering a media stream in a network having first and second media servers each capable of delivering segmented media content to a requesting media client. The network provides for HTTP-based delivery of segmented media, and the media client is supported on a client-side device. The method begins by associating the media client with the first media server. As the first server receives from the media client request for media content segments, request times for a given number of the most-recent segments requested are used to generate a prediction, by the first server, of when the media client has transitioned from a start-up or buffering state, to a steady state. In response to a new segment request being received, and upon the first server predicting that the media client has completed a transition to steady state, the new segment request is redirected to the second media server.

  • Patent number: 12068941
    Abstract: Provided is a system and method for resiliency testing at a session level. A fault injection request is received from a client device associated with a user, via a user interface. The fault injection request defines an active impairment of one of a service or an endpoint with a blast radius restricted to a scope of the received fault injection request. The scope of the received fault injection request corresponds to a first session in a production environment or a lower environment. A client request is received from the client device within the blast radius of the active impairment. Based on the fault injection request and a persistence within the blast radius, the one of the service or the endpoint is impaired in the first session. A response, received from an entity associated with the one of the service or the endpoint, is transmitted to the client device.

  • Patent number: 12068911
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe a testing framework for adaptive virtual services. In an example, a function vendor provides a network function having stated specifications to a service provider. A derived signature is generated for the network function (e.g., based on associated metadata, an image associated with the network function, and/or a network signature for the network function), which is used to classify the network function. The testing framework is used to test the network function according to its classification, thereby determining a set of capabilities. In examples, a network function having the same or similar signature as a previously tested network function may be categorized according to the previously tested network function. The network function is categorized according to its determined capabilities and added to an inventory of network functions for the service provider. Network functions in the inventory can then be selected to form a computer network.

  • Patent number: 12068963
    Abstract: A method of load balancing in a communications network includes transmitting, by a source node, to a destination node, a first plurality of packets of a “flowlet” of a flow of packets. Each of the first flowlet of packets includes a plurality of header fields and a randomizer. The header fields and the randomizer are used by a networking device located between the source node and the destination node to select an output port of the networking device for the packets of the first flowlet. Further methods include selecting, by the source node, based on a criteria, a second randomizer for inclusion in a plurality of packets of a second flowlet of packets, waiting a time delay after transmitting the first flowlet of packets, then, inserting the second randomizer into the sequential second flowlet of packets, and transmitting the second flowlet of packets.

  • Patent number: 12069098
    Abstract: Techniques for analyzing traffic originating from a host device in a wireless network to identify one or more virtual machines (VMs) running on the host device and connected to the network via the host device in bridge mode. When a VM is created in bridge mode behind a host device, the traffic originated by the VM will have the source Media Access Layer (MAC) address of the host device. According to techniques described herein, devices and/or components associated with the network may profile the traffic to identify an address of the VM, such as by analyzing dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) packets to determine the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the VM. Once the IP address and the MAC address of the VM is known, the components and/or devices may apply security policies to the VM that may be different than security policies applied to the host device.

  • Patent number: 12021934
    Abstract: Techniques for a Predictive Connection Manager Service (PCMS) to predict when client applications will send service requests to backend services, and proactively establishes connections, caches data, or takes other actions, to reduce latencies between receipt of and response to these service requests. The PCMS analyzes historical usage data for the client applications to identify usage patterns, and uses those usage patterns to proactively scale resources to handle service requests. The PCMS can be implemented as a pass-through proxy for client applications to reduce frictions for managing how users interact with backend services. For instance, the PCMS can install client-side drivers such that updates or patches for the drivers need only be installed on the PCMS rather than on each client device.

  • Patent number: 12003475
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to email synchronization methods and electronic devices. In one example method, an electronic device obtains an email identifier of an email. The electronic device sends, to a server, a first request including the email identifier. The electronic device receives a first response from the server and extracts the email and the structure information from the first response. The electronic device determines object identifiers of objects in the message body based on the structure information. The electronic device sends a second request to the server if information of a first object in the message body fails to be downloaded, where the second request includes the email identifier and an object identifier of the first object. The electronic device receives a second response from the server and extracts the information of the first object from the second response.

  • Patent number: 11979457
    Abstract: Technology related to managing network services using multipath protocols is disclosed. In one example, a method includes intercepting a multipath protocol request from a requesting host for a connection to a service. The multipath protocol request is intercepted by an intermediary server. A target host different than the intermediary server can be selected to provide the service. A multipath protocol packet can be sent from the intermediary server to the requesting host. The multipath protocol packet can add a subflow of the connection using an address of the target host. The subflow can enable a path between the requesting host and the target host that does not traverse the intermediary server.
