Abstract: A system designed for increasing network communication speed for users, while lowering network congestion for content owners and ISPs. The system employs network elements including an acceleration server, clients, agents, and peers, where communication requests generated by applications are intercepted by the client on the same machine. The IP address of the server in the communication request is transmitted to the acceleration server, which provides a list of agents to use for this IP address. The communication request is sent to the agents. One or more of the agents respond with a list of peers that have previously seen some or all of the content which is the response to this request (after checking whether this data is still valid).

Abstract: Systems and methods to identify a plurality of different snapshot versions for a rollback to a previous configuration for subsets of network infrastructure devices is disclosed. A plurality of different network device configuration snapshots is identified and a set of snapshot checkpoints that each include a set of related parameter settings for each different network device are selected as a rollback configuration snapshot for that device. Each device may be associated with automated validation capabilities to validate a proposed rollback version. The computer system may iterate through a set of versions of snapshots and automatically initiate validation capabilities to validate a proposed rollback for the first logical grouping. Determination of a set of configurations may be based on a version control tag to restore a network to an operational state, never before seen in operation, that has a high degree of confidence, in part, because validation tests were successful.

Abstract: A distributed system may include one or more interfaces, such as APIs, allowing a client to request a resource instance and further provide information about the resource instance that can be used to determine a placement domain for resource instance. For example, a compute instance may be placed in a same placement domain as a volume that provides block storage for the compute instance. In some embodiments, a resource placement manager may “jam” place a resource instance in a particular placement domain, wherein the “jam” placement causes one or more placement constraints to be temporarily violated. The resource placement manager may then perform one or more mitigating actions to return the particular placement domain to a state that satisfies the one or more placement constraints.

A cache policy may be determined for the subset of application components based on the monitoring. A cache improvement plan for the application may be provided based on the cache policy for the subset of application components.

An example apparatus includes a source data generator to generate a migration package corresponding to a source cloud management automater; a target cloud management automater migrator to migrate data of the migration package into a target cloud management automater; and performing a schema upgrade of a target database of the target cloud management automater; and a target service upgrader to upgrade service components at the target cloud management automater based on the migration package.

Abstract: Systems and methods for regulating electronic messages transmissions. A message delay system is disposed between one or more first entities and a second entity within at least one network. Electronic messages are received from among at least one the first entities and the second entity at one or more message arrival times. A message delay component applies a delay to each received electronic message, based on a predefined delay time common to all of the first entities and a first entity delay offset associated with a first entity that is associated with the received message. The first entity delay offset is based on a geographical origin of the first entity relative to a geographical origin of the second entity. Each delayed message is transmitted to a designated recipient via the network, where the designated recipient is among the second entity and the first entities.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for providing access to a database in a multi-tenant environment, including the use of a connection pool, and support for live addition of a tenant. When a pluggable database (PDB), for use by a tenant, is added to a multi-tenant database, it can generate an event to notify the connection pool. The connection pool environment consumes this PDB-add event, and dynamically configures a new tenant to access the shared pool. Since the new tenant addition is based on receipt of an event from the database, the connection pool does not require manual configuration for that tenant. Once a tenant is added, it can borrow connections from the pool in the same manner as existing tenants, and can also share existing pool properties, such as, for example a maximum pool size, or maximum number of connections per tenant.

Abstract: Application dependency mapping (ADM) can be automated in a network. The network can determine whether certain nodes form a cluster of a tier of an application. The network can monitor network data and process data for traffic passing through the network using a sensor network that provides multiple perspectives for the traffic. The network can analyze the network data and process data to determine respective feature vectors for nodes. A feature vector may represent a combination of the features corresponding to the network data and the features corresponding to the process data of a node. The network can compare the similarity of the respective feature vectors and determine each node's cluster based on similarity measures between nodes.

Abstract: A system for reducing overlay network overhead includes a memory, a processor in communication with the memory, a first container and a second container running on a first host, and a container scheduler executing on the processor. Each of the first container and second container expose a network service port(s). The container scheduler executes on the processor to assign a network complexity weight to the first host. The network complexity weight is based on a quantity of network service ports that the first container and the second container expose. The container scheduler also filters hosts based on resource availability corresponding to each host and ranks the hosts based on a respective network complexity weight corresponding to each host. Additionally, the container scheduler dispatches a third container to a second host based on the resource availability and network complexity weight corresponding to the second host.
