Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer-storage media, and graphical user interfaces are provided for facilitating efficient meeting management, according to embodiments of the present technology. In one embodiment, engagement data associated with an attendee of an online meeting is obtained. Thereafter, an engagement metric is generated using the engagement data, the engagement metric indicating an extent of engagement of the attendee to the online meeting. Based on the engagement metric indicating that the extent of engagement of the attendee to the online meeting falls below an engagement threshold, a request is provided to disconnect or throttle an audio and/or video stream of the online meeting to and/or from an attendee device associated with the attendee of the online meeting.

In some embodiments, a client Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor and a memory, the memory having program instructions that, upon execution by the processor, cause the client IHS to: receive, from a workspace orchestration service, one or more files or policies configured to enable the client IHS to instantiate a first workspace based upon a first workspace definition; allow a user to execute a non-vetted application in the first workspace; determine that the first workspace is compromised; and receive, in response to the determination, from the workspace orchestration service, one or more other files or policies configured to enable the client IHS to instantiate a second workspace based upon a second workspace definition, where the second workspace definition allows execution of a vetted application corresponding to the non-vetted application.

Abstract: A system performs continuous delivery of a data pipeline on a cloud platform. The system receives a specification of the data pipeline comprising data pipeline units. The system generates a deployment package for each data pipeline unit for a cloud platform. The system provisions computing infrastructure on the cloud platform according to the system configuration of the data pipeline unit. The data pipeline may be implemented as a data mesh. The data pipeline generates one or more data models. The system receives a schema representing a modification in a data model based on a change in the requirements of a consumer system. The system determines the changes to the data pipeline based on the received schema and reconfigures the data pipeline to generate the modified data model.

Abstract: The present disclosure is to determine a probable root cause of a performance issue. For example, a method can include processing, using a processor, a set of calls for a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) transaction wherein individual calls of the set of calls have a set of parameters; and identifying, using the processor, that the HTTP transaction has a performance issue that falls below a predetermined level of a performance metric.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a proxy device, a document from a service provider in response to a request to the service provider from a client device. The proxy device injects into the document event monitoring code for monitoring user actions on the client device. The proxy device sends the document with the event monitoring code to the client device. The event monitoring code intercepts a user request for a file upload event using a client-side application on the client device. The proxy device receives a client request including file information regarding the file upload event from the event monitoring code. The proxy device determines whether the file upload event should be allowed or blocked based on the received file information and stored policy data.

Abstract: A device, which is part of a decentralized media playout system, is located at a destination location. The device includes a processor, memory, a network interface, and a jitter buffer implemented in the memory. The jitter buffer buffers programming content and control messages, which are received from a source location of the decentralized media playout system, before transmitting them to a mixer. A first relative timing relationship between the programming content and the control messages exists at the source location, and a second, altered relative timing relationship between the programming content and the control messages exists at the destination location. The processor restores the first relative timing relationship between the programming content and the control messages, as it existed at the source location, by instructing the jitter buffer to delay transmitting either the programming content or the control messages to the mixer.

Abstract: Presented herein are a combination of techniques that will ensure that the traffic is sent to the proxy right from the first packet without any delay using transient transport, and upgraded to Hybrid Information-Centric Networking (hICN) immediately upon completion of the stack initialization and we have full connectivity. More specifically, a mechanism is provided to dynamically establish hICN connections to transport latency-sensitive traffic, due to a transient User Datagram Protocol (UDP) fallback. This allows a reliable conversion between the push-based IP model, and the pull-based hICN model with no connectivity interruption. This is useful to implement proxy functionalities exposing regular IP applications to hICN to leverage its benefits in terms of performance or seamless mobility.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to predict experience degradation in a microservice-based application comprising a plurality of microservices. Quality of service metrics are derived for each node from the historical event log data of nodes forming a plurality of directed acyclic graph (DAG) paths in the multiple-layer nodes. A clustering model clusters the plurality of quality of service metrics according to multiple levels of quality of experience and determines respective value ranges of each quality of service metric for the multiple levels of quality of experience. Each quality of service metric is labeled with one of the multiple levels of quality of service according to the respective value ranges. A support vector machine model predicts various experience degradation events which are expected to occur during the operation of the microservice-based application.
