Abstract: A method and system for identifying changes to a data set, such as data within a mailbox, and performing actions based on the identified changes is discussed. In some examples, the system receives an indication of a change to a mailbox, creates a change journal entry for the change, and identifies data to be copied via the change journal entry. In some examples, the system leverages the change journal to associate messages with changes to a mailbox.

An example method may comprise detecting an egress packet that is destined for a second endpoint located in the same virtual network as a first endpoint. The method may also comprise: in response to determination that service insertion is required, identifying a service path based on a service insertion rule; generating an encapsulated packet by encapsulating the egress packet with an outer header that is addressed from the first endpoint to a network device; and sending the encapsulated packet to cause the network device to send the egress packet towards the service path, thereby steering the egress packet towards the service path for processing.

Abstract: A network device may intercept, from an application associated with a user space of the network device, a request message to join a multicast group or to leave the multicast group. The request message may be addressed to a kernel of the network device. The network device may direct the request message to a service daemon associated with the user space of the network device. The network device may determine, using the service daemon, whether another application associated with the user space is a member of the multicast group. The network device may selectively generate, using the service daemon and based on whether the other application associated with the user space is the member of the multicast group, an advertisement message based on the request message, and transmit the advertisement message when the advertisement message is generated.

A system constructed according to the technique may include a network interface coupled to the different low level networks. The system may further include a contact aggregation engine coupled to the network interface and a network contacts database. In operation the system logs into one or more of the low level networks (or facilitates login for a user). To the extent that the data in the network contacts database is not current, the contact aggregation engine updates the networks contacts database contact information, then provides an aggregated contact list including the contact information to a display device. A method according to the technique may include logging into a high level network and displaying contacts from the one or more low level networks in an aggregated contact list.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for migrating data from a first storage system to a second storage system. That data is for a process (e.g., a virtual machine, application, or some other process) operating on a computer system that is separate from the first storage system and the second storage system. That data is stored according to data subsets that are each exclusive of each other. As each data set is migrated, access to the data set by the process is precluded, but access for the remaining data sets is not affected. Once the data migration is complete, access to the data set by the process is restored.
