Abstract: Techniques are described to perform an automatic reset of a database session to generate an environment that resembles a brand new session without the computational cost of creating a brand new session. In an embodiment, a DBMS receives a request from a client application to execute commands within a session. The DBMS identifies that the end request boundary, the end of the logical work unit for the client application, is reached within the session. The DBMS verifies that the end request boundary is at a resettable point of a session state of the session for the session to be safely reset. If the verification is successful, the DBMS performs a reset of the session to prevent any leakage of application-related session state to the next request.

Abstract: A hybrid HTTP/UDP delivery protocol provides significant improvements for delivery of video and other content over a network, such as an overlay. The approach is especially useful to address problems (e.g., slow startup times, rebuffering, and low bitrates) for HTTP-based streaming. In general, the protocol has two phases: an HTTP phase, and a UDP phase. In the HTTP phase, the client sends an HTTP GET request to a server. The GET request contains a transport header informing the server that the client would like to use UDP-based transfer over the protocol. The server may refuse this mode and continue in ordinary HTTP mode, or the server may respond by sending an empty response with header information informing the client how to make the connection to enter the UDP phase. In the UDP phase, the client initiates a connection and receives the originally-requested content over UDP.

Abstract: A method includes processing first data from a network node to determine a mobile device is accessing a communication network and to identify a first traffic pattern. The method also includes causing a network device to activate the first network function based on the first traffic pattern.

The method additionally includes causing the network device to deactivate the first network function and to activate a second network function based on the second traffic pattern. The method also includes determining a first network resource usage and causing a charge rate to be applied for using the first network function based on the first network resource usage.
