Abstract: At an artificial intelligence based service to detect violations of resource usage policies, an indication of a first data set comprising a plurality of network traffic flow records associated with at least a first device of a set of devices may be obtained. Using the first data set, a machine learning model may be trained to predict whether resource usage of a particular device of a particular network violates a first resource usage acceptability criterion. In response to determining, using a trained version of the model, that the probability that a second device has violated the acceptability criterion exceeds a threshold, one or more actions responsive to the violation may be initiated.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products comprises a server, which receive a request from a user's electronic client device. The server understands the intention of the user by determining an attribute associated with the request. The server further determines a sentiment value and routes the request to a call center computing system if the sentiment value satisfies a threshold; otherwise, the server determines to route the request to one of virtual assistant servers. The server selects a virtual assistant server whose subject matter best matches the attribute of the request. The server may also select a virtual assistant server based on other information, such as user's previous selection of virtual assistant servers, a time value, or a confidence value. The selected virtual assistant provides a response corresponding to the request.

Abstract: A host computer system is queried for network configuration data associated with network components within the host computer system.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products comprises an analytic server, which dynamically predicts future events for web users. The analytic server generates prediction models based on historical click-through analytics data received from the web server. The analytic server captures the current event (e.g., the current operation of the web user) on the web page, and determines the next event by predicting the web user behavior using the prediction models on an event-by-event basis. The analytic server also queries the web user data from a database to better understand the web user's intention, and improve the prediction accuracy. The analytic server modifies the HTML code to display the web page to include a graphical user interface comprising the predicted event. Based on the web users' reactions to the predicted event, the analytic server updates the prediction models.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for managing a network. In one example, a device configuration manager is configured to generate, in accordance with a device management protocol, a configuration change request representing a transaction having a first sub-transaction specifying a first configuration change for a network device of the network and a second sub-transaction specifying a second configuration change for the same network device. The device configuration manager is further configured to output the configuration change request to the network device and receive a reply message from the network device. The reply message includes a first response element specifying whether the first configuration change is successfully committed at the network device and a second response element specifying whether the second configuration change is successfully committed at the network device.

Abstract: A load-balancing cluster includes a switch having a plurality of ports; and a plurality of servers connected to at least some of the plurality of ports of the switch. Each server is addressable by the same virtual Internet Protocol (VIP) address. Each server in the cluster has a mechanism constructed and adapted to respond to connection requests at the VIP by selecting one of the plurality of servers to handle that connection, wherein the selecting is based, at least in part, on a given function of information used to request the connection; and a firewall mechanism constructed and adapted to accept all requests for the VIP address for a particular connection only on the server that has been selected to handle that particular connection. The selected server determines whether it is responsible for the request and may hand it off to another cluster member.

Abstract: A resource such as a server derives multiple streams of data based on particular content. Each of the multiple streams of data is encoded to enable play back of the content according to a different level of quality. The server transmits the multiple streams of data of differing levels of quality on a multicast link downstream to one or more intermediate nodes that, in turn, distribute the streams of data to end users. For example, an intermediate node retrieves a respective stream of data from the multiple streams of data and forwards the selected stream of data over a second portion of the multicast link to a respective client device. The intermediate node can transmit a different stream of data to the respective client device depending on available bandwidth. The client device plays back the transmitted stream of data to produce a rendition of the particular content.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to passing a cookie between client devices such that, based on the cookie, connections to the application from the client devices are mapped to a given application instance. A request may be transmitted to an application instance connector to connect to an application. The application may be implemented by multiple application instances. A cookie associated with a given application instance of the multiple application instances may be received from the application instance connector. The cookie may cause connections to the application from client devices having the cookie to map to the given application instance. The cookie may be passed from a first client device to a second client device such that, based on the cookie, connections to the application from the second client device are routed to the given application instance.

Abstract: Described is a server monitoring technology that is scalable to large numbers of servers, e.g., in a datacenter. Agents on servers run queries to monitor data sources for that server, such as performance counters and other events. The agents monitor their resource usage and those of monitored events to stay within an administrator-specified resource budget (policy), e.g., by modifying the running queries and/or monitoring parameters. A controller receives results of the monitoring, analyzes the results, and takes action as needed with respect to server operation and monitoring. The controller may dynamically update an agent's queries, monitoring parameters and/or monitored data post-processing operations. The controller may issue alerts and reports, including alerts indicative of inter-server problems between two or more servers.
