Abstract: A network system provides architecture for transmitting data across low-bandwidth links via user datagram protocol (UDP) via a scheduler that schedules, prioritizes, and collaborates data for transmission. The schedule coordinates low priority data and high priority data that may interrupt the low priority data in response to preset rules programmed into an automatic decision module. The automatic decision module may also include variable rules that can vary in response to machine learned information occurring or incoming to the system in situ.

Abstract: In some example implementations, there is provided a method.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, detecting a request for a network service between two network nodes and identifying a network path between the two network nodes, wherein the network path is realized by equipment performing a number of network functions. A first network function of the number of network functions is associated with a first number of redundant virtualized network resources performing at least a similar network function as the first network function. Usage metrics are determined corresponding to the first number of redundant virtualized network resources and a first virtualized network resource of the first number of redundant virtualized network resources is assigned to the network path based on the usage metrics to obtain a first assigned virtualized network resource. The network service is provided between the two network nodes using the first assigned virtualized network resource. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for filtering and routing event notifications to subscribers are disclosed. In an example embodiment, events from a publisher may be received. Each of the events may be associated with a topic, and the topic may be compared with topics present in broker metadata cache, based on one of prefixes and a fast lookup technique using a hash-table. Further, it may be determined whether the topic associated the events is present in the broker metadata cache based on comparison. Based upon determining, matching nodes for the events may be retrieved. Further, the events may be routed based on routing tables and availability of the matching nodes. Based on the routing, the events may be forwarded to the subscribers.

Abstract: Some aspects of what is described here relate to managing the use of network resources on a mobile device. User input received at the device indicates whether to allow an application associated with a first perimeter on the device to access a network resource associated with a second perimeter on the device. For example, in some instances user input may indicate whether to allow data from applications associated with a personal perimeter on the device to be transmitted over an enterprise communication system. When outbound data associated with the first perimeter are received, the device determines, according to the indication from the user input, whether to route the outbound data to the network resource associated with the second perimeter.

Abstract: Ranked session affinity to improve load balancing efficiency for stateful services is disclosed. A first application server node receives, from a load balancer node, an initial request for a stateful service originating from a client node. The first application server node establishes a session based on the initial request, the session including a session identifier that uniquely identifies the session. The first application server node determines a prioritization list that identifies a set of application server nodes selected from a plurality of application server nodes, the prioritization list identifying the first application server node as a primary application server node and one or more backup application server nodes. The first application server node generates a first response to the initial request, the first response including the prioritization list. The first application server node sends the first response to the load balancer node.

Abstract: Systems and methods for soft deletion of a group chat conversation are provided. In example embodiments, a listing of suggested chat conversations are displayed in response to receiving a chat message initiation input. The listing of suggested chat conversations includes a first group chat conversation in which the user is a participant. Subsequently, it is determined that the first group chat has remained inactive for a threshold period of time, and in response a soft deletion of the first group chat is executed. The soft deletion comprises removing the first group chat from the listing of suggested chat conversations, however the first group chat remains accessible to the user in a chat feed of the user.

Abstract: A system provided at nodes within a network of nodes enabling the nodes to migrate activities to other nodes within its communication range to provide load balancing across the network. The other nodes having power and processing capabilities and capacity enabling them to undertake the migrated activities.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed generally to systems and methods for providing load balancing as a service. A load balancer executing on a device intermediary to a server and a plurality of clients can receive a request from an agent executing on the server.

A polling resource manager automatically scales the polling assignments, polling threads, and invoke threads to better utilize the polling resources and to reduce latency experienced by the user when interacting with the customer applications.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, a system to automate platform provisioning for an enterprise includes a platform resource computer store containing a set of electronic data records (each including a component identifier and a set of computing characteristic values). A profile engine may receive a platform request from a user associated with the enterprise and identify, based on data in the platform resource computer store, a resource bundle of components appropriate in view of the platform request. A platform generator may receive platform requirements based on the identified resource bundle of components and provide input data to a REST API service. Final platform definition information for the enterprise may be stored into a central repository. According to some embodiments, a platform provisioning system may process IaaS and PaaS automation components and utilize a return service to generate infrastructure binding data to couple components in the resource bundle to each other.
