  • Patent number: 11979455
    Abstract: A disclosed method provides a structured definition for a distributed application comprising two or more component applications. The definition may identify each component and a component type, e.g. VM or container, collocation information indicative of collocation requirements for one or more of the components, and external dependency information indicating constraints the alternative environment must comply with. The distributed application may be deployed to one or more endpoints. Responsive to detecting a triggering event for evaluation of component relocation alternatives, disclosed methods may invoke a resource balancing engine to identify a viable alternative endpoint for one or more component applications. Responsive to identifying a viable alternative endpoint for a particular component application, disclosed methods may relocate the particular component application to the alternative endpoint.

  • Patent number: 11968095
    Abstract: Systems and methods for capturing and correlating multiple sources of debugging information relating to a network resource and a client device via a browser extension are provided. A browser extension integrated within a browser running on a client device, receives a request to initiate capturing of debugging information relating to a potential bug associated with a network resource with which an end user is interacting via the browser, and in response to the first request, starts capturing the debugging information from multiple sources and correlates the multiple sources to facilitate time-synchronized playback. On receipt of a second request, the browser extension stop capturing debugging information, and creates a single compressed file containing the debugging information collected from the multiple sources. The single compressed file may then be shared with a second device, which can playback the correlated debugging information.

  • Patent number: 11930069
    Abstract: Techniques for determining whether HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 is a preferred protocol for communication between a client device and a server over a network are described. A change associated with a network interface of a client device is detected. Based at least in part on detecting the change, a determination is made to identify a preferred communication protocol for a network over which the client device communicates using the network interface. A HTTP/2 probe is transmitted over the network and to a server. A HTTP/3 probe is transmitted over the network and to the server. In response to not receiving a HTTP/3 probe response, the preferred communication protocol is determined to be HTTP/2. In response to receiving the HTTP/2 probe response and the HTTP/3 probe response, the preferred communication protocol is determined to be HTTP/3. The client device communicates with the server over the network using the preferred communication protocol.

  • Patent number: 11921602
    Abstract: In some aspects, an edge-based data collection system discovers, collects, processes, and forwards data in an observability pipeline system. In some implementations, an edge agent of the observability pipeline system runs on a computer node. The edge agent identifies processes running on the computer node; identifies files on the computer node that the processes have opened for writing; accesses log discovery parameters of the observability pipeline system; selects a plurality of files from the identified files according to the log discovery parameters; generates a list of discovered log files that includes a path and a name for each of the plurality of files; adds the list of discovered log files to a list of monitored log files to be monitored by the observability pipeline system; and then monitors the plurality of files to generate input for the observability pipeline system.

  • Patent number: 11907860
    Abstract: Targeted acquisition of data for model training includes automatically generating metadata describing samples, of an initial dataset, in neighborhoods of an embedding space in which the samples are embedded. The samples described by the automatically generated metadata are classified by a classification model, and include both correctly classified samples in the neighborhoods and incorrectly classified samples in the neighborhoods. Additionally, attributes of one or more correctly classified samples of the collection of samples and one or more incorrectly classified samples of the collection of samples are identified, and queries are generated based on the identified attributes, the queries tailored, based on the attributes, to retrieve additional training data for training the classification model to more accurately classify samples and avoid incorrect sample classification.
