Abstract: An orchestration engine may execute multiple, concurrently running instances of a process model, where each of the instances of the process model includes one or more receiving objects. A messaging endpoint may be shared by the instances of the process model and may be configured to receive messages. A subscription handler may handle multiple subscriptions for the instances and may be configured to define a first subscription for a first instance of the multiple instances, where the first subscription includes a correlation expression, an association with the messaging endpoint, and an association with a first receiving object within the first instance. The subscription handler also may associate the first subscription with the first instance and initialize the first subscription associated with the first instance. A routing manager may route received messages that match the first subscription to the first receiving object.

Abstract: An information-processing apparatus determines whether a source of a registration request transmitted thereto exists on a network in a predetermined range, and changes the valid period of registration of notification destination information on the basis of the determination result. Alternatively, an information-processing apparatus determines whether a notification destination that should be registered in response to a registration request transmitted thereto exists on the network in a predetermined range, and changes the valid period of registration of notification destination information on the basis of the determination result.

Abstract: For processing messages in a messaging system comprising a source and a destination queue manager, an uncommitted message is received from an application at the source queue manager. This is transmitted to the destination queue manager and received thereat. When it is determined that the message is uncommitted, it is stored in memory, rather than placing the message on a receive queue for processing by another application. If it is determined that the uncommitted message has been committed by the application which originated the uncommitted message, then it is placed on the receive queue.

Abstract: Systems and methods for configuring and performing operational services (OS) for a technology service (TS) corresponding to the received messages based on invoking the tools wherein the tools may be configured by translating the configuration of the services. The method includes: configuring the OS and executing the OS which further comprises the steps of identification of a first OS and a first operation based on the configuration, routing a first message received, executing the first operation by the first OS, routing the first message to the first OS identified. The first operation is performed by invoking a first tool wherein the first tool may send the first message to the router which further routes the first message to the OS with the first message eventually reaching the user via the TS. Similarly, a second operation may be performed by a second OS.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an occurrence of a triggering event is detected and it is determined that a virtual disk will be assembled in response to the triggering event. A time is determined at which the virtual disk will be assembled. When it is ascertained that the assembly time occurs, the virtual disk is assembled. It may also be determined whether a connection request is received for the virtual disk during a predetermined time.

Abstract: The canonicalization of input messages having application specific data into a canonical message format, regardless of whether those native messages are well-formed. When a message is accessed, as long as the message is processable, the message is canonicalized. If the native message is well-formed, then a canonical message is generated that includes the application specific data in a schema understood by the application. On the other hand, if the native message is not well-formed, the canonical message is generated in a manner that the canonical message may be used to access the raw bits of the message, and that includes sufficient information for some downstream processing to determine that the message was not well-formed. That downstream processing may optionally then perform compensatory actions to regain access to the application specific data, and may potentially use information from the canonicalized message to do so.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable medium for consistent and transparent replication of multi process multi threaded applications. The computer readable medium includes computer-executable instructions for execution by a processing system. Primary applications runs on primary hosts and one or more replicated instances of each primary application run on one or more backup hosts. Replica consistency between primary application and its replicas is provided by imposing the execution ordering of the primary on all its replicas. The execution ordering on a primary is captured by intercepting calls to the operating system and libraries, sending replication messages to its replicas, and using interception on the replicas to enforce said captured primary execution order. Replication consistency is provided without requiring modifications to the application, operating system or libraries.
