  • Patent number: 11055121
    Abstract: A device includes a memory and a node engine. The memory stores a table that includes input values represented by first correlithm objects, feedback values represented by second correlithm objects, and output values represented by third correlithm objects. Each output value in the table is the sum of a corresponding input value and a corresponding feedback value. The node engine receives an input correlithm object and a feedback correlithm object. The node engine determines a first correlithm object in the table based on the input correlithm object and a second correlithm object in the table based on the feedback correlithm object. The node engine then determines a third correlithm object from the table based on the determined first correlithm object and the determined second correlithm object, and outputs the third correlithm object as an output correlithm object.

  • Patent number: 10997000
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to implement a multi-region event publishing system to broadcast heterogeneous events across regions. In embodiments, an event publisher at a first location receives an event to be published and writes the event to a first data store of a multi-location replicated data storage system. The event publisher may generate metadata for the event including a source location, destination location(s), and a timestamp. The event is replicated to a second data store of the multi-location replicated data storage system at a second location. The second data store generates a change stream to an event receiver. The event receiver filters the second change stream based on the event metadata, and provides the filtered events to registered event consumers.

  • Patent number: 10838779
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system for automatically executing multiple functional units of operation from multiple applications to complete a task that requires data from a variety of sources. The system stores information about operations that may be executed on a client device. When executing a sequence of operations, for example in response to a user request, the system may automatically store output from each operation. When executing subsequent operations in the sequence of operations, the system can determine whether output from a previously executed operation is appropriate for use as input to a new operation. The system can thus save data from one application and automatically use that data as input to a different application. Additionally, the system may determine subsequent operations to execute in response to previously observed output values.

  • Patent number: 10810055
    Abstract: Calls, such as API calls to a resource provider environment, can be modeled and evaluated using a shadow environment before executing the call in an actual target environment. Such an approach ensures that any changes made as a result of executing the call will not cause the actual environment to be out of compliance with any relevant rules or regulations. Changes may typically be reflected in a configuration management database. A shadow copy of this database can be generated, and the call can first be modeled in this shadow copy. Shadow log entries including results of the processing can be generated and evaluated. If the changes would be compliant then the call can be transmitted to the actual API endpoint for the target environment, where the API call can be executed.

  • Patent number: 10747590
    Abstract: Embodiments for managing, serving, and applying logging adapters for applications are described. An administrator for an application can establish mappings between the application and adapters that handle log events from the application. When the application executes, it can get these mappings and use them to obtain the corresponding adapters. The adapters can have a configuration function and a logging function. The configuration function can be executed once per-execution of the application to establish a global state for the logging function of that adapter. The configuration function can receive configuration data provided with the mappings. Thereafter, as the application generates log events, they can be passed to the logging functions of the mapped adapters, which execute to perform logging such as analytics functions, on the events, whether locally or by sending the events to third parties.
