Abstract: Systems and methods for generating container images are described. An image tag comprising a set of code names is received at a virtual image server, wherein the virtual image server comprises a mapping of each code name of the set of code names to a corresponding image file. For each of the set of code names, a corresponding image file is retrieved from an image registry and an image manifest is generated by the virtual image server using the corresponding image file of each of the set of code names. The image manifest may reference the corresponding image file of each of the set of code names as a separate image layer. The virtual image server may provide the image manifest to a container host, which may build a container image based on the image manifest.

Abstract: Streams of disk image files usable for deploying software in computing environments can be generated according to some examples. In one example, a system can receive, from a client device, a request for a disk image file. The system can determine, based on the request, a base image file and a customized file that are combinable for generating the disk image file. The system can store, in a header of the base image file, characteristics of the disk image file. The system can transmit, to the client device, the base image file as a stream. The system can pause transmission of the base image file based on the characteristics of the disk image file in the header of the base image file. In response to pausing transmission of the base image file, the system can transmit, to the client device, the customized file as the stream.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for uploading network applications. For instance, system(s) may initially receive first data representing a first version of a network application and a first manifest that includes information describing the file contents of the first version. The system(s) may then store the first data and the first manifest within one or more databases. After the network application is updated to a second version, the system(s) may receive a second manifest that includes information describing the file contents of the second version of the network application. The system(s) may then use the first manifest and/or the second manifest to identify files that have been modified to create the second version of the network application. The system(s) may then receive second data representing the identified files and then reconstruct the second version of the network application using the first data and the second data.

Abstract: Blockchain distribution of computer data is disclosed. Computer data can comprise computer code, a computer code segment, a computer command, or a block of computer data, which can be employed by a device to patch software, change a device state, or synchronize data between devices. Blockchain distribution can provide benefits in a heterogeneous device environment, facilitate ad hoc device synchronization, and embody a distributed patch and communications network. Devices can receive a blockchain block from another device and, in some embodiments, enable other devices to access the block from the device. In some embodiments, devices can discard irrelevant blocks, however, an entire blockchain can be reconstructed where partial blockchains can be received from more than one device. Additionally, checkpoint blocks can enable devices to navigate the blockchain efficiently by skipping over known irrelevant blocks.

Abstract: A processing device receives one or more inputs for design verification of an integrated circuit using an emulation compiler. The processing device determines a type of compiler for processing the one or more inputs.

A blueprint file is generated to specify the software programs or operating systems that are selected. In addition, the blueprint file may specify different installation settings and configuration settings. The blueprint file is stored in a repository and may be applied to one or more target devices. When applied, a task schedule is generated, where the task schedule prioritizes installations specified in a blueprint file. In addition, the task schedule specifies various provider identifiers to perform the installation(s).

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media that support cross-server containerized application allocation, multi-tenant namespace management, and data layer deployment in an edge environment. To illustrate, containers associated with an application are deployed to edge servers based on a geographic characteristic of the edge server with respect to an edge device receiving services from the application. A common data layer is provided across the edge environment to manage communications between the different containers, and between the application and other applications of the edge environment. Managing the communication is based on namespaces and/or a modality (e.g., private or public) associated with the application. Authentication configuration of the application is used to determine edge resource access for the containers of the application.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for deploying and/or rolling back automatic teller machine (ATM) updates. Such methods can store a back-up system image of a client operating system on a virtual hard drive. When an update is deployed from a host operating system to the client operating system, the system update may fail to install properly, and the ATM may shut down. In response, the host operating system can execute instructions to the client operating system to boot from a bootable image on the virtual hard drive. Then, the virtual hard drive can emulate, by a boot loader on the back-up system image, the client operating system on the ATM from the virtual hard drive without loading the client operating system. Then, the virtual hard drive can install a rolled-back operating system on the ATM. The rolled-back operating system can comprise the back-up system image.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes downloading respective instances of an enterprise mobile application to a plurality of mobile devices. The instances of the enterprise mobile applications, while executing on respective mobile devices, capture, for each session, a session log that includes indications of ordered user actions occurring during the session, and optionally time intervals between user actions and/or user attributes. Captured session logs stored at and are mined by one or more servers to discover a particular pattern or sequence of user actions that occurred across multiple, different user sessions. If the number and/or rate of occurrences of the particular pattern is greater than a threshold, a new test case corresponding to the pattern is automatically generated and added to a suite of test cases for the UI functionality of the enterprise mobile application. The updated test suite may be automatically executed on a test version of the enterprise mobile application.
