Patent number: 11546220Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods for optimizing the number of servers in a cluster. In one example, a number of application servers, a number of backend servers, and a first disk throughput of a backend server to be included in the cluster are determined. The first disk throughput is determined based on the storage capacity of the backend server and a first round trip time. Example systems and method can also include validating the number of application servers based on a cluster throughput and one of a network interface card bandwidth of an application server to be included in the cluster and a load bearing capacity of the application server. The systems and methods can further include determining a second disk throughput of the backend server and increasing the number of backend servers if the second disk throughput is less than the second disk throughput.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2021Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: VMWARE, INC.Inventors: Rajat Garg, Chandrashekhar Jha, Yash Bhatnagar

Patent number: 11538287Abstract: An apparatus for managing vehicle data collection including a remote access execution circuit, a property translation circuit, a parameter acquisition circuit, a remote operation circuit, and a parameter conditioning circuit. The remote access execution circuit interprets a remote access request value including a requested vehicle property and/or a vehicle function value. The property translation circuit determines: a property request value responsive to the requested vehicle property; and/or an actuator command value responsive to the vehicle function value. The parameter acquisition circuit interprets vehicle parameter values responsive to the property request value. The remote operation circuit provides the actuator command value to a vehicle network zone endpoint. The parameter conditioning circuit generates, responsive to the property request value, vehicle property data from the vehicle parameter values. The vehicle property data corresponds to the requested vehicle property.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2021Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: Sonatus, Inc.Inventors: Yu Fang, Yixiang Chen, Xuanran Zong, Robin Reed, Troy Michael Trenchard, Thurston Zhu, Sudhir Ramphal Dhankhar, Jeffrey Chou, Felipe Andres Valdes Valenzuela

Patent number: 11468476Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for presentation of advertising content during presentation of media content and based on data collected from vehicle sensors and a mobile device. Media content, such as stored songs, podcasts, or videos, may be presented to a user. Sensor data corresponding to operation of a vehicle may be collected, and a risk score based on operation of the vehicle may be determined. Based on the risk score, an advertising tier may be determined. The scope of media content available to a user and the frequency of presentation of advertising content during presentation of such media content may be based on the risk score. For example, safe driving behaviors may result in rewards which permit access to more media content, and/or safe driving behaviors may result in fewer advertisements being presented to a user on an in-vehicle display.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2019Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Allstate Insurance CompanyInventor: Soren K.

Patent number: 11381639Abstract: Request routing in a network of computing devices. Back-end nodes associated with a request router send load reports to request routers. To select a back-end node for processing a request, a request router determines, based on the reports, estimated loads and corresponding errors of the estimated loads for respective nodes. A load balancing technique may be selected, based on the estimated loads and corresponding errors (e.g., round robin may be selected if the significance of an average error outweighs the difference between estimated load values for the nodes, or least estimated load may be selected of the difference between load values is greater than the average error). The selected technique is applied to choose one of the nodes to process the request. Load probability distribution may also be used for request routing, in combination with or separate from the selection based on the estimated loads.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2020Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Terence Smith, Paul Derek DeMarco, Michael Shane Thyssen, Christopher Keakini Kaulia, Chaitanya Avinash Kulkarni

Patent number: 11381495Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods that may determine a net neutrality status. Server and agent of an internet network may each generate two flows of data that are transmitted/received by the server/agent, respectively. The first flow comprises an unspoofed data flow as may be transmitted over the network based on an HTTP GET command. The second flow may comprise a spoofed data flow. The second flow may emulate, or spoof, a video stream or other data flows that may be altered in the network. Server or agent may compare the first flow relative to the second flow to determine differences in performance data, from which a net neutrality status can be detected. Generally, after a measurement command is invoked, the system starts a downstream measurement. Then after completion of the downstream measurement, the system starts an upstream measurement.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2019Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: ASSIA SPE, LLCInventors: Chan-Soo Hwang, John M.
