Patent number: 11729250Abstract: Systems and method for web control adaptation and hooking for virtual private network integration are provided herein. A client application executing on a client device can modify a scheme support function of a web control application to return a first value in response to a first scheme type. The first value can indicate that the web control application does not support the first scheme type. A custom scheme function can be registered to handle the first scheme type and can intercept requests of the first scheme type. The custom scheme function can transmit the requests to one or more URLs corresponding to one or more applications through a virtual private network (VPN). The custom scheme function can forward, to the web control application for rendering on the client device, the data corresponding to the application retrieved by the custom scheme function through the VPN.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Citrix Systems, Inc.Inventor: Jeffrey David Wisgo

Patent number: 11729256Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method includes determining that incoming media item requests are to be skewed from a random distribution among server nodes, using a random distribution algorithm, to a directed distribution among the server nodes. The method then includes identifying, in a loading assignment, which media items are to be loaded onto specific server nodes to produce the directed distribution of media item requests. The method next includes preloading the identified media items onto the server nodes according to the loading assignment and receiving media item requests for the preloaded media items. The method then includes routing the received media item requests to the server nodes using the random distribution algorithm, where the random distribution algorithm is skewed to the directed distribution based on the preloading of the media items according to the identified loading assignment. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2021Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Netflix, Inc.Inventors: Ishaan Shastri, James Schek
