Abstract: Techniques are provided for facilitating network devices to obtain configuration updates from a central configuration repository. Configuration update information is received regarding a configuration update in a configuration repository. A data tree is updated based on the configuration update information. An identifier unique to the update is generated. A determination is performed that network device properties of a network device correspond to a set of network device properties indicated for the configuration update information. A notification indicating the availability of the configuration update is sent over one or more networks to the network device.

Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which is stored machine readable instructions that may cause the processor to determine whether a request is stored in a message queue, in which the apparatus may be inside of a domain and the message queue may be outside of the domain. Based on a determination that a request is stored in the message queue, the processor may pull the request from the message queue through a domain boundary, fulfill the request to cause a response to the request to be generated, and forward the response to the message queue through the domain boundary.

Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a sticky canary router routes each request associated with a service to either a canary cluster of servers that implement a modification to the service or a baseline cluster of servers that do not implement the modification. The sticky canary router implements a mapping algorithm that determines the routing of each request based on a current time, a time window for the routing, and a characteristic of the request. Notably, the mapping algorithm may be implemented such that, for time segments with duration equal to the time window, the sticky canary router routes all requests received from a particular device in a consistent fashion—either to the canary cluster or to a baseline cluster. Configured thusly, the sticky canary router enables the analysis of approximately full sections of client interactions with the canary servers, thereby facilitating identification of client-side effects of the changes.

Abstract: Edge node networks can be utilized to facilitate predictive access to content for a wide variety of applications. For example, predictive data can be generated based on historical patterns, audio data, calendar invites, etc. The predictive data can include predicted locations, persons present based on usage of their mobile device, edge node and access point usage, etc. The predicted data can be used to facilitate more efficient access to content by proactively sending mobile application and/or content usage data to edge node equipment that is predicted to be used in accordance with a predicted a predicted event. Furthermore, the predictive analysis can be used to modify mobile screens for quicker access to content and/or mobile applications.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for a network controller that manages multiple managed forwarding elements (MFEs) that implement multiple logical networks. The method stores (i) a first data structure including an entry for each logical entity in a desired state of the multiple logical networks and (ii) a second data structure including an entry for each logical entity referred to by an update for at least one MFE. Upon receiving updates specifying modifications to the logical entities, the method adds separate updates to separate queues for the MFEs that require the update. The separate updates reference the logical entity entries in the second data structure. When the second data structure reaches a threshold size in comparison to the first data structure, the method compacts the updates in at least one of the queues so that each queue has no more than one update referencing a particular logical entity entry.

Abstract: A data storage system including a data storage device located on a first network and configured to download data from a network site based on universal resource locator (“URL”) information of the network site, and an electronic device located on a second network different than the first network. The electronic device determines the URL information of the network site, receives user authentication data, receives a network address of the data storage device from a server using the user authentication data, and transmits the URL information to the data storage device using the network address of the data storage device. This causes the data storage device to download data from the network site contingent on correct user authentication being provided.

Abstract: A method includes receiving from a transmitting data interface, a data stream mapping of a data input into data shards for transmission in a data stream over a data stream communication channel. Data capacity for a data producing software application from a plurality of data producing software applications is adjusted by increasing or decreasing a number of data shards in the data stream assigned to the data producing software application. An updated data stream mapping of the data input into the plurality of data shards is generated by updating a start hash key and an end hash key in a range for each of the data shards assigned to the data producing software application. The updated data stream mapping is sent to the transmitting data interface for adjusting the data capacity in the data stream transmitted over the data stream communication channel of the data producing software application.
