  • Patent number: 12368775
    Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for scalable service discover and load balancing using direct client connections to servers. A service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor for digital transactions, may provide different computing services to users through client devices, which utilize server instances from server pools and the like to provide the computing services to users. This may include providing servers to handle client requests and process data with users. When client devices connect to the service provider's system, service discovery may be performed to find an available server instance to handle client requests. To provide scalable service discovery, load balancers may, instead of managing client requests through the load balancers, ping server instances from a server pool to identify a network address of an available server. This may be returned to the client device and a direction connection may be made between the device and server.

  • Patent number: 12355639
    Abstract: An electronic eyewear device communicates with a backend service system via a device hub that provides an edge proxy server for a service request from the electronic eyewear device to the backend service system. The device hub provides a standardized request/response optimized schema for providing a standardized communication between the electronic eyewear device and the backend service system in response to the service request in a standardized format adapted to minimize network requests. A standardized communication is provided to at least one backend service of the backend service system, and a standardized response to the standardized service request is received from the backend service(s) and provided to the electronic eyewear device. In one configuration, the device hub may issue asynchronous requests to backend services in response to a service request from the electronic eyewear device and merge responses into a standardized response for the electronic eyewear device.

  • Patent number: 12316708
    Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine-readable mediums which automatically initiate a connection to a network-based communication session using a second communication application responsive to the communication service detecting that the user is unable to join the network-based communication session using a first communication application. The first and second communication applications may be on a same or different computing device. For example, if a user's desktop device is unavailable or experiencing connection issues, then the communication server may automatically request that a communication application on a mobile phone of the user join the network-based communication session.

  • Patent number: 12267094
    Abstract: A method for carrier aggregation receives a signal with multiple non-contiguous carrier bands. Frequency converting of the signal to a compressed single intermediate frequency band with a pseudonoise code applied to a local oscillation of each of the multiple non-contiguous carrier bands while maintaining separation of the multiple non-contiguous carrier bands permits reduced complexity digital signal processing to detect spectral power density and demodulate waveforms across multiple channels. A receiver includes a pseudorandom noise generator applying a pseudo noise code to the local oscillator generator to produce a unique set of spectral tones in the output signal that sample-specific channels over the multiple non-contiguous carrier bands.

  • Patent number: 12231417
    Abstract: Techniques for adjusting a duration of an authenticated user device session. A baseline session duration is determined for a session for which a user account is authorized in response to a request for authentication. A first session is established on behalf of a user device associated with the user account based at least in part on the user account performing a first authentication. A posture associated with the user device is determined. The baseline duration is then adjusted to a dynamic duration based at least in part upon the posture associated with the user device. Based at least in part on the dynamic duration the user can be required to re-authenticate.
