Patent number: 11099974Abstract: An application-performance management (APM) system manages the performance of a service on a highly redundant high-availability platform that configures duplicate instances of hardware, software, or infrastructure components. The APM system verifies the resilience of the platform by conducting a series of tests that each measure the performance of platform components while simulating a failure path comprising one or more distinct combinations of component failures. If the service is not highly critical, the APM system simulates single-failure failure paths, but more critical services are tested by simulating multiple concurrent failures. Self-learning cognitive modules of the APM system select the failure paths to be tested and then infer from the measurements which failure paths present an unacceptably high risk of service outage. The APM system then directs downstream systems to revise the architecture to mitigate any such risks.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2019Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Shashidhar Sastry

Patent number: 11061734Abstract: Described is a system and method for compacting data into customized (e.g. optimal) file sizes for processing by computing resources. The mechanism may leverage various computing resources such as a cluster computing frameworks combined with a stream processing platform to efficiently process the activity data. For example, activity data of an organization may be processed by a set of jobs (or sub-jobs) as part of a data stream by a set of distributed computing resources. In order to efficiently process such data, the mechanism may compact the data into customized (e.g. optimal) file sizes.
