Abstract: An online system receives information including a description of an event occurring in a mobile application and user identifying information associated with a user of the mobile application associated with the event via an SDK incorporated into the mobile application code of the mobile application. The online system determines whether the description corresponds to information maintained in the online system describing types of events capable of occurring in the mobile application. If the description corresponds to information describing a type of event capable of occurring in the mobile application, the online system logs the type of event in association with the user identifying information. Otherwise, the online system predicts a type of event corresponding to the event occurring in the mobile application based at least in part on the information received at the online system and logs the predicted type of event in association with the user identifying information.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for a distributed auto discovery service for device enrollment. In an example, a user device enrolling in a Unified Endpoint Management (“UEM”) system can receive an email address. The enrolling user device can identify, on a local network that the enrolling user device is connected to, other user devices that are already enrolled with the UEM system. The unenrolled user device can send a discovery request to the enrolled user devices that includes the domain of the email address. One or more of the enrolled user devices can respond with a tenant identifier associated with the domain and a Uniform Resource Locator for a server that the unenrolled user device can contact to complete enrollment. The unenrolled user device can contact the server and complete enrollment using the email address and tenant identifier.

Abstract: Described are computing systems and methods configured to detect a small, but meaningful, anomaly within one or more metrics associated with a platform. The system displays visuals of the metrics so that a user monitoring the platform can effectively notice a problem associated with the anomaly and take appropriate action to remediate the problem. An operational visual includes a radar-based visual with a heatmap arranging metrics, and a node representing a state of the metrics. Moreover, the system uses an ensemble of unsupervised machine learning algorithms for multi-dimensional clustering of hundreds of thousands of monitored metrics. Via the visuals and the implementation of the machine learning algorithms, the described techniques provide an improved way of representing and simulating many metrics being monitored for a platform. Moreover, the techniques are configured to expose actionable and useful information associated with the platform in a manner that can be effectively interpreted.

Abstract: Aggregation of cross domain service level indications provide an estimate of available end to end error budget within a service chain of a network system. In some embodiments, service level indications are obtained from a plurality of sub-domains, and aggregated to determine an end to end reliability score. The end to end reliability score is then distributed one or more of the sub-domains. The sub-domains then consider whether to implement a change based on local service level indications as well as the end to end reliability score. In other embodiments, a sub-domain requests approval to implement a change from an error manager. The error manager consults the end to end reliability score to determine whether adequate margin exists in the service chain to allow the change to occur, while still meeting service level objectives of the service chain. The error manager conditionally approves the request based on the determination.

Abstract: Techniques for hub and spoke publish-subscribe are described herein. In some examples, an outgoing-data database comprising addresses of remote device hubs on respective remote devices is maintained. First data is received from a first process operating on the device. The first data is sent to a first remote hub associated with a first remote device and associated with an entry in the outgoing-data database. An incoming-data database is maintained to associate processes operating on the device with data to which the processes subscribe. Second data is received from a second device hub associated with a second device. It is determined—by reference to the incoming-data database—that the second data is data subscribed-to by a second process operating on the device. The second data is sent to the second process.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method inserts, by a first computing device, a first value for a capability in a first message that is used in a process to automatically exchange capability values with a second computing device. The first value for the capability indicates the first computing device requires a default route to reach the second computing device as a next hop for sending a packet to a destination. The first computing device sends the first message to the second computing device; and receives a second value for the capability in a second message from the second computing device. The second value indicating the second computing device will send the default route to reach the second computing device. When the default route is received from the second computing device, the first computing device stores the default route from the second computing device in a route table.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for determining future user actions using time-based featurization of clickstream data. A server captures clickstream data corresponding to web browsing sessions and converts the clickstream data into tokens by identifying each unique URL and parsing each unique URL into tokens. The server generates a frequency matrix based upon the tokens, and generates a latent feature vector for each URL in the session based upon the frequency matrix. The server merges the latent feature vectors and the clickstream data into an aggregate clickstream vector set for a user. The server assigns time-decayed weight values to each latent feature vector in the aggregate clickstream vector set. The server combines the time-decayed latent feature vectors to generate a clickstream embedding for the user, and executes a machine learning model using the clickstream embedding to generate one or more predicted actions of the user.

Abstract: Configuring device data streams (DDSs) of a mobile device is described herein. DDSs can include sensor data (captured from one or more sensors of the mobile device) and user-specific data (including application data from applications executed via the mobile device, as well as non-application data). DDS configuration parameters define modifications for the user-specific data and/or the sensor data of the DDS; these modifications can include removing or altering the user-specific data and/or the sensor data. DDSs can be sent to an external storage device via a network, and DDS modifications can be made at the mobile device or at the external storage device. Modified DDSs can be provided to requestors, and thus, the DDS configuration parameters allow a user to control what data is, or is not, included in a DDS for reasons related to privacy, data usage, etc.
