An automatically generated recommendation of an automation solution among a plurality of automation solution candidates is provided for the identified computer automation opportunity.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for bootstrapping an application with metadata specified in a template. The template specifies a stack of resources that will be used to execute an application and also includes a set of metadata for customizing the resources and the application. When the system receives the template, it instantiates a compute node which will execute the application. The compute node may contain at least one initialization script for bootstrapping the application with the metadata contained in the template. This functionality allows users to bootstrap the application running on the compute node with data from within the template that was used to create the stack of resources for executing the application. In this manner, metadata, configuration files, package names and versions can be passed by the application owner to the remote compute node.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to passing a cookie between client devices such that, based on the cookie, connections to the application from the client devices are mapped to a given application instance. A request may be transmitted to an application instance connector to connect to an application. The application may be implemented by multiple application instances. A cookie associated with a given application instance of the multiple application instances may be received from the application instance connector. The cookie may cause connections to the application from client devices having the cookie to map to the given application instance. The cookie may be passed from a first client device to a second client device such that, based on the cookie, connections to the application from the second client device are routed to the given application instance.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed that process requested changes to operating parameters of an Internet of Things (IoT) device. In some embodiments, a client computing device originates a requested change to the IoT device. An IoT services system may process the requested change and determine whether an early indication of success is appropriate. If an early indication of success is appropriate, the IoT services system, prior to the requested change being applied to the IoT device, transmits to the client computing device a first message that provides an indication of success for the requested change.

Abstract: It is made possible to realize bidirectional communication safely on the cloud side, and on-premises side in a job execution system. It is checked whether or not there is an agent with the same logical name at time of agent registration. In a case that there is the same logical name, transfer performance required of each agent is checked, and communication is performed by rewriting a logical name during transfer by using an existing logical name for an agent required of the highest transfer performance, and using a logical name which is a new unique alias for the other agent.

Abstract: The described technology relates to a software application architecture allowing for creation of a web application that has multiple Single Page Applications (SPAs) within the application. The software application architecture includes components that are common to each page of the web application while also having components that are dynamically loaded to cater to specific respective pages within the application. The dynamically loadable components can be identified based on an identifier in a path being browsed using a web browser application. The described application architecture may be used in the context of AngularJS, as well as other SPA technologies and non-SPA technologies.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for using quantum optimization to provide a real time network server load or capacity management system for dynamic update and resource allocation and outage prevention. Load management information is received from a plurality of information technology infrastructure devices (e.g., servers, network devices, storage systems, and end user devices) that make up an overall system network environment. When at least a portion of that load management information is too burdensome for a conventional computer apparatus, the information is formatted for quantum optimization and transmitted to a quantum optimizer. The quantum optimizer analyzes the data and responds with an optimized load leveling or load balancing process for distributing traffic across the information technology infrastructure devices. This optimized load leveling process is then implemented across the appropriate devices.

Abstract: In general, techniques are described for a hierarchical, distributed DHCP system for managing IP address assignment among distributed networks of computing devices. For example, a system may include a central DHCP server configured to manage a plurality of distributed DHCP servers, each distributed DHCP server configured to perform DHCP using IP addresses allocated from a common prefix for a tenant associated with computing devices managed by multiple DHCP servers. The central DHCP server allocates IP addresses to the distributed DHCP servers, e.g., on an on-demand basis from the common pool and may handle concurrent requests for IP addresses from distributed DHCP servers. Each of the distributed DHCP servers may store records for IP addresses and media access control (MAC) addresses for computing devices managed by that distributed DHCP server, and the DHCP servers may send these records to the central DHCP server to facilitate IP assignment coherency.

Abstract: In an approach to efficient concurrent TLS data streams, a parent connection is established by performing a normal TLS handshake. A concurrent mode of operation is negotiated, where one or more child connections are established without using the TLS handshake. The one or more child connections are associated to the parent connection. Child application traffic secrets are derived for each child connection of the one or more child connections from application traffic secrets of the parent.

Abstract: A communication system for a micro-frontend architecture can include a first message handler associated with a requestor of data and a second message handler associated with a requestee. The requestor can be a wrapper application or a micro-frontend, and the requestee can the other of the wrapper application or the micro-frontend. In response to receiving a data request from the requestor, the first message handler can transmit a request message via a communication channel to the second message handler, where the request message includes a unique identifier assigned to the request. Thereafter, the first message handler can receive a response message from the second message handler via the communication channel, where the response message includes the data and the unique identifier. Based on the unique identifier in the response message, the first message handler can provide the data to the requestor in a response to the request.
