Abstract: The various implementations described herein include methods and systems for synchronous audio playback. In one aspect, a method is performed at each of a plurality of electronic devices, each having an audio system, an internal clock, processors and memory storing programs for execution by the processors. Each device is configured for two-way communications with a server and associated with a user account. The device receives an identification of a first device as a common clock device that has a first internal clock being designated as a master clock. The device receives a synchronized audio playback command that includes audio data to be output and a future playback time. In response to receiving the audio data, the device determines a synchronized audio playback time. If the determined synchronized audio playback time has not yet occurred, the electronic device outputs the audio data based on the determined synchronized audio playback time.

Abstract: A customizable router manages traffic between application programming interfaces (APIs) of microservice applications (apps) that make up various features of a website. Various datastores may also be used to store information, such as information related to certain products, pricing, users, etc. In order for the website to function properly, the microservice apps communicate with one another and with the datastores. The customizable router is used to manage and route traffic between the microservice apps and/or datastores. The customizable router may, for example, route a universal resource indicator (URI) request for a webpage of a website to particular versions or revisions of a microservice app based on rules established for the customizable router. For example, a certain percentage of traffic may be routed to a first version of a microservice app, while a different percentage of traffic may be routed to a second version of the microservice app.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system configured to implement a service worker capable of serving multiple single page applications (SPAs) that are hosted in the same uniform resource locator (URL) space (e.g., a domain within which the SPAs are hosted). Accordingly, the defined scope of the service worker is no longer bound by only one SPA, but rather by a root directory of a web site that hosts multiple SPAs. Since the service worker described herein serves multiple SPAs, the service worker implements an approach to ensure that a correct application controller corresponding to the SPA that hosts a URL is invoked. To do this, the service worker is configured to leverage a router and a routing table to associate a URL included in a request from a browser with the correct application controller corresponding to the SPA that hosts the URL for which the request is sent.

A system, according to one implementation, is arranged in a distributed microservice system for providing microservices to one or more clients. The system includes a database, a processing device, and a memory device configured to store computer logic having instructions. When executed, the instructions enable the processing device to receive a message from a client regarding a user command to perform an operation with respect to a client device. Also, the processing device is enabled to extract information from the database regarding predetermined confirmation policies pertaining to the operation. The instructions further enable the processing device to analyze potential impact of the operation with respect to the client device to determine user confirmation requirements.

Abstract: A cloud-based content object management system responds to download requests from user devices to provide access to synchronization code. Using the synchronization code, a user device requests, receives, and stores a user-device-local copy of a subject content object. The cloud-based content object management system determines that at least one security-related parameter pertaining to the subject content object has undergone a change and reaches a determination that the user-device-local copy of the subject content object is to be either deleted or quarantined. Upon such determination, the cloud-based content object management system forms eviction instructions and sends them to the user device, which in turn causes deletion or quarantining of the remote content object copy at the user device, while still retaining directory structure metadata that refers to the now evicted subject content object.
