Abstract: A message relay service receives, from an electronic message service, an electronic message that includes obscured data that cannot be de-obscured by a third-party mass delivery service and an electronic address for the electronic message service. The message relay service de-obscures the obscured data to obtain plaintext data for inclusion in the electronic message. The message relay service replaces the electronic address for the electronic message service with an electronic address for a specified recipient and causes the electronic message including the plaintext data to be transmitted to the specified recipient.

Abstract: An application resilience framework, where a monitoring engine of the framework monitors an application and captures data associated with the application. A processor analyzes the data captured to associate an event retrieved from the data captured with an action in a pre-stored template, executes the action associated to the event as specified in the pre-stored template, identifies a status of the application, fetches the data captured, the event retrieved from the data captured, the action associated with the event retrieved the action executed, stores in a repository, and notifies at least the status of the application based on at least one notification template storing at least one value.

An electronic mail item is parsed for identifying and extracting attributes for classifying the electronic message and for identifying time-sensitivity associated with the electronic message, and enriched with metadata identifying the classification and the associated time-sensitivity for displaying the electronic message based on the classification and based on relevancy to a receiving user based on the time-sensitivity.

Abstract: A tool for processing a multi-modal network to reduce modality. The tool converts the multi-modal network into a modelled network based, at least in part, on the weighted value assigned to each of the plurality of links. The tool eliminates one or more of the plurality of entities not designated as an entity of interest from the modelled network. The tool converts the modelled network into a uni-modal network.

Abstract: Implementations relate to automatic response suggestions based on images received in messaging applications. In some implementations, a computer-executed method includes detecting a first image included within a first message received at a second device over a communication network from a first device of a first user, and programmatically analyzing the first image to extract a first image content. The method includes retrieving a first semantic concept associated with the first image content, programmatically generating a suggested response to the first message based on the first semantic concept, and transmitting instructions causing rendering of the suggested response in the messaging application as a suggestion to a second user of the second device.

Abstract: Embodiments include a method of controlling message delivery from a publisher application to one or more subscriber applications of a messaging system, the one or more subscriber applications having a plurality of subscriptions registered with a broker application of the messaging system. The method includes generating a unified subscription description representing the plurality of registered subscriptions based on at least one stored intermediate subscription description, where each intermediate subscription description represents one or more registered subscriptions. The method also includes communicating the unified subscription description to the publisher application.

Abstract: Described herein is a system in which a number of servers in a server pool may be decommissioned without affecting the availability of capabilities provided by that pool of servers. In some embodiments, each server may be assessed with respect to its characteristics and the applications running on that server. In some embodiments, the server may be added to a list of servers to be decommissioned. In some embodiments, each server in the list of candidate servers may be assigned a deactivation score and ordered based on those deactivation scores. An automated decommissioning system may be implemented to decommission servers on a list of servers to be decommissioned and/or based on a deactivation score associated with that server.

Abstract: A content delivery method including the operations of receiving a uniform resource locator resolution request at an authoritative name server for a domain where the uniform resource resolution request is received based, at least in part, on a host name of the uniform resource resolution request where the host name is uniquely related to a resource associated with the uniform resource resolution request. The method further including the operation of tracking a popularity of the resource based on the host name uniquely related to the resource and providing a location within a network capable of delivering the resource where the provided location is based on the popularity of the resource.

Abstract: A device receives a user election of participation in a distributed cache service, and receives user selection of one or more devices, that are each associated with the user, to register with the distributed cache service as participant nodes. The device determines an amount of available storage offered to the cache service for each of the one or more participant nodes, and determines an available bandwidth of a respective network connection associated with each of the one or more participant nodes. The device admits selected devices of the one or more participant nodes into the distributed cache service based on the available storage and the available bandwidth, and interleaves storage of multiple chunks of content across a subset of the participant nodes admitted into the distributed cache service. The device enables client access to the multiple chunks of content interleaved across the subset of the participant nodes.

Abstract: In some embodiments, data related to calculating a set of values may be obtained. The set of values may be approximated based on a subset of the related data. The approximated values may be stored at a first data storage and a second data storage that corresponds to a landing zone (via which a client device obtains at least some of the approximated values). The approximated values stored at the first data storage may be continuously updated based on further subsets of the related data such that the approximated values stored at the first data storage is updated at least a first number of times within a first time period. The approximated values stored at the second data storage may be continuously updated such that the approximated values stored at the second data storage is updated less than the first number of times within the first time period.

Abstract: A system and method maximize the availability of cloud services in the event of a disruption to one or more cloud servers by automatically triggering the live migration of selected cloud services and automatically performing the triggered migration of such services. The operational state of virtual machines operating on a cloud server and the services that are associated with the virtual machines is monitored. Different techniques are used for deciding when to migrate cloud services based on the automatic detection of anomalies, for deciding what cloud services to migrate so as to maximize the availability of high priority services during migration under time and network bandwidth constraints, and for deciding where to migrate the selected cloud services based on a determination of the best location for migration.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for caching resources. Multiple distinct resource identifiers that correspond to the same resource can be automatically collected, wherein the multiple distinct resource identifiers are included in resource requests that are sent from at least one client to at least one server. Next, a key can be automatically determined that matches the multiple distinct resource identifiers by analyzing the multiple distinct resource identifiers. A resource request can be received from a client that includes a resource identifier, and in response to determining that the resource identifier matches the key, the resource can be sent to the client.
