Abstract: Enhanced packet redirect capabilities are disclosed herein for draining traffic to a server. In an implementation, a server in an infrastructure service receives a packet from a stateless load balancer. The packet may comprise a request for content. A user space program on the server determines whether a connection identified in the packet belongs to the server. If the connection belongs to the server, the user space program handles the request for the content. If not, the server forwards the packet to a secondary server in the infrastructure service. The secondary server, to which the connection may belong, can then handle the request.

Abstract: Systems and methods for processing webpage calls via multiple module responses are described. A system may receive, from a client device, a first call for module data associated with a set of webpage modules for presentation in a webpage. The system may subsequently transmit, to the client device based on receiving the first call, a first response including first module data associated with a first subset of the set of webpage modules. The first response may additionally include a token identifying the webpage. The server may additionally transmit, to the client device based on transmitting the first response, a second response including the token identifying the webpage and second module data associated with a second subset of the set of webpage modules that differs from the first subset of the set of webpage modules.

Abstract: A computer server includes processor and memory hardware. The processor hardware executes instructions including parsing a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) request from a first user agent to identify a first data object matching a set of characteristics and generating a new data element based on the HTTP request. The instructions include, in response to the first data object being present: extracting a first set of serialized data elements and serializing them with the new data element to generate a second data object. The instructions include, in response to the first data object being absent and a user associated with the first user agent being identifiable: determining a second set of serialized data elements based on an identity of the user, and serializing them with the new data element to generate the second data object. The instructions include transmitting an HTTP response including the second data object.

The example plugin agent is to transmit the gathered data to a plugin manager to determine whether the first device is to communicate via the first protocol, and, when the first device is unable to communicate via the first protocol, determine a plugin for the gateway device to enable the gateway device to communicate with the first device, the plugin agent to provision the plugin for the gateway device with respect to the first device.

Abstract: A computing system receives, from a client device, a first request for access to a single page application associated with the computing system. A gateway of the computing system intercepts the first request before it reaches a shell service associated with the single page application. The gateway sends a second request for the single page application to the shell service. Based on the single page application request, the gateway determines that the shell service is experiencing a failure. Responsive to determining that the shell service is experiencing a failure, the gateway retrieves, from a content delivery network, a uniform resource locator (URL) associated with a time-lapse hypertext markup language (HTML) of the single page application. The gateway redirects the client device to the time-lapse HTML of the single page application using the URL.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a hub of a collecting device that receives messages from entities. The messages are formatted in a message structure that is dependent upon an entity sending the message. The hub analyzes each of the received messages by identifying, from the message structure, information corresponding to an interest of the collecting entity, and discarding information of the message not of interest to the collecting entity. The analysis is agnostic with respect to the entity sending the message and the message structure of the message. The hub performs an action based upon the information corresponding to an interest of the collecting entity.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a CDN where anycast routing is used to identify a load balancer for selecting a cache in the CDN to use to deliver a requested object to a user. In one embodiment, the user performs a DNS lookup to identify an anycast IP address for a plurality of load balancers in the CDN. The user can then initiate anycast routing using the anycast IP address to automatically identify the closest load balancer. Once the identified balancer selects the cache, the load balancer can close the anycast connection with the user device and use an HTTP redirect to provide the user device with a unicast path to the selected cache. The user device can then establish a unicast connection with the cache to retrieve (e.g., stream) the object.

To solve this issue, the present invention provides for identifying at configuration, based on the deployment and on the Storage solution for the Session/context data, which instances (101, 103, 201) of the same service type have access with strong consistency to the same data, and provide this information to the consumer (40), so it is allowed to prioritize selection of an alternative NF service instance that supports strong consistency, whenever possible.

Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for dynamic network resiliency, such as by monitoring and controlling the configuration of one or more network components to ensure proper endpoint alignment, for instance. Some embodiments are particularly directed to a tool (e.g., resiliency agent) that can automatically recognize symptoms of issues with a network component, such as autoscaling, latency, traffic spikes, resource utilization spikes, etcetera, and respond appropriately to ensure continued and optimized operation of the network component. In many embodiments, the tool may dynamically reroute endpoint traffic, perform traffic balancing, and/or drive autoscaling to optimize operation of the network component in response to recognizing symptoms.
