Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a method and system for private chat within a group chat. During operation, the system receives, at a server from a computing device, a first message that includes a first private chat identifier, private chat counterpart information, and private chat content data. The system determines a private chat counterpart client based on the first private chat identifier and the private chat counterpart information. The private chat counterpart client and the computing device are both participating in the group chat. The system generates a private chat message based on the first message including the private chat content data, and sends the private chat message to the private chat counterpart client without sending the private chat message to all members participating in the group chat.

Abstract: Consistency between a requirement for communication with respect to software in a system and a requirement for a network is maintained, without re-designing a network by the user. A requirement conversion unit (110) of a system design support device (100) generates a requirement for communication between computers based on a requirement for communication between software components included in a system, and based on identifiers of the computers in which the software components are deployed. The requirement conversion unit (110) generates a requirement for a network for connecting between the computers based on the requirement for communication between the computers.

Abstract: A method for removing computing assets from service in a provider network includes receiving, from a requestor, identification for selected ones of the computing assets requested to be removed from service. Each of the computing assets is a computing device or a slot of a computing device. A pool in which each of the computing assets requested to be removed from service is located is identified. For each identified pool: which of the computing assets requested to be removed from service is approved for removal from service is determined based on a number of resource instances available for allocation to users after the computing devices are removed from service exceeding a predetermined number of resource instances. The requestor is notified as to which of the computing assets is approved for removal from service.
