Abstract: Disclosed here is a system to automatically predict and resolve issues within a telecommunication network. Initially, the system builds a service registry to store dependence information within the network, which can include software components and hardware components. Various components of the network create logs of their operations. Machine learning models examine the logs and detect any issues. Upon detecting an issue or abnormal event, the system can automatically resolve the issue by determining the most similar issue occurring previously and determining a solution that resolved the previous most similar issue. In addition, the system can propagate the fix to dependent systems and/or notify the dependent systems of the issue.

Abstract: Snapshots of storage volumes and containers of a bundled application may be created and used to rollback or clone the bundled application. Clone snapshots of storage volumes may be gradually populated with data from prior snapshots to reduce loading on a primary snapshot. Components of cloned applications may communicate with one another using addresses of these components in the parent application. Containers of the bundled application may communicate with an open virtual switch (OVS) that implements flows to implement translation between clone and parent addresses. Containers may be modified to execute operation-specific entrypoint functions prior to invoking an entrypoint of an application instance loaded in the containers.

The method can prevent in advance and process a heterogeneous functional equivalent that may be faulty.

Abstract: A user of a mobile device can specify particular news, weather, traffic, or other perishable content received on a particular Internet radio station or other media channel received by the mobile device. The user can customize the station so that wherever the user is currently located, they can receive on their mobile device perishable content related to a preferred geographic location or other category. In some embodiments, a user can specify that a customized station plays local news from one city at the top of the hour, traffic from another city at 10 minutes past the hour, and music or other content at other times. The user can also customize original content from the personal libraries of specified users. Thus, a user can customize not only the genre of content or select a particular local station, but can also modify the perishable content provided by the customized station.

Abstract: Usually agents probe other agents across the network to determine health of a network. However, it is also useful for agents to probe themselves. Such a test probe is off-network in that it does not leave a server rack. The off-network probes can be used to detect noisy agents, which can be excluded from further consideration in evaluating overall network quality. The off-network probing of the agents can be done in a loopback interface of the host device or via a top-of-rack switch to another distinct agent in the rack.

Abstract: A system and method of forming proxy server pools is provided. The method comprises several steps, such as requesting a pool to execute the user's request and retrieving an initial group. The system checks the service history of an initial group, including whether any of the proxy servers in an initial group are exclusive to existing pools. The exclusive proxy servers in an initial group with eligible proxy servers are replaced when needed and new proxy server pools are formed. The system also records the service history of proxy servers and pools before and after the pools are created. The method can also involve predicting the pool health in relation with the thresholds foreseen and replacing the proxy servers below the threshold.
