Abstract: Resolving a dynamic request from a local web component rendered on a development server executing on a user client device. A cache is located in the user client device and is accessible to the development server. The development server receives a first request for information from the local web component via a web browser, intercepts the first request at a proxy override module and transmits the first request to a cloud computing service provider's server. The development server receives a response from the cloud computing service provider's server in reply to the first request, transmits the response from the development server to the local web component, stores in the cache the response received at the development server from the cloud computing service provider's server in reply to the first request for information.

Abstract: A true transparent proxy for a web application firewall is provided. Granular network security policies are applied on a per web application basis using unique SSL inspection certificates for web applications sharing a common IP address.

Abstract: Policies can be applied to, and enforced for, specific resources by applying a corresponding tag to those resources. An entity, such as a customer of a resource provider, can generate one or more policies to be applied to a set of resources, where those policies can relate to data retention, backup, lifecycle events, and other such aspects. Each policy can be associated with a particular tag, which may comprise a key-value pair to be applied to various resources. A policy enforcement manager can determine the tagged resources and ensure that the relevant policies are applied. The policies can include logic or intelligence for performing a variety of tasks with respect to resources, groups of resources, or types of resources, as identified using the tags.

Abstract: A method of delivering content comprises, at a node in a network, receiving a first request to access a first webpage from a client computer, and after establishing a session with the client computer, transmitting a second request to a server in the network. The method further comprises receiving a first file for rendering the first webpage, extracting one or more hyperlinks to one or more second webpages from the first file, prefetching one or more second files for rendering respective ones of the one or more second webpages, and storing the one or more second files in a session cache associated with the session. The method further comprises receiving a third request to access a third webpage from the client computer; retrieving a third file for rendering the third webpage from the session cache in response to determination that the one or more second files include the third file; and transmitting the third file to the client computer.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for providing real-time media streams. A cloud-based communication platform receives an incoming communication request to establish a communication session and executes a set of communication instructions associated with the incoming communication request. The set communication instructions includes a command to execute a real-time media stream in relation to the communication session. The command includes data designating a network destination to receive the real-time media stream. The cloud-based communication platform initiates the communication session between client devices and initiates the real-time media stream to the network destination. The real-time media stream concurrently transmitting at least a portion of the media transmitted between the client devices to the network destination.

Upon an acceptance to the assistance request by a responding user through the graphical chat interface, an assistance command may be generated and executed in the virtual space.

Abstract: An Internet infrastructure delivery platform (e.g., operated by a service provider) provides an overlay network (a server infrastructure) that is used to facilitate “second screen” end user media experiences. In this approach, first media content, which is typically either live on-demand, is being rendered on a first content device (e.g., a television, Blu-Ray disk or another source). That first media content may be delivered by servers in the overlay network. One or multiple end user second content devices are then adapted to be associated with the first content source, preferably, via the overlay network, to facilitate second screen end user experiences (on the second content devices).

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for connecting sensor devices to cloud servers by a gateway device. The gateway device includes a plurality of sensor adaptors, a sensor data processor, and a network communication interface. The sensor adaptors are configured to receive sensor data in communication signals from sensor devices. Each sensor adaptor is configured to extract sensor data encapsulated according to a respective sensor communication protocol. The sensor data processor is configured to process the extracted sensor data for transmission to a cloud service, such as by extracting unneeded messages data, or inserting additional data such as a time stamp. The network communication interface is configured to transmit the processed sensor data to the cloud service over a network according to a network communication protocol. Sensor data of different types may be transmitted according to corresponding types of network communication protocols.

Abstract: A computer has a processor and a memory connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions executed by the processor to receive a real time communication request from a client device and perform an evaluation of the number of client devices associated with the real time communication request. The evaluation results in the coordination of peer-to-peer communications in the event of two client devices and an attempt to host a real time communication session using a first protocol in the event of three or more client devices. A second protocol for the real time communication session is invoked in the event that the attempt to host the real time communication session using the first protocol is unsuccessful.
