  • Patent number: 11671512
    Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing a constant memory footprint concatenating reactive publisher, for use with microservices or reactive programming environments. A Publisher provides a Subscriber with a Subscription that supports requests of an amount up to a particular value. The Publisher can keep track of a requested number of items. When concatenating output from multiple Publishers, the switch between the output of one Publisher, and that of the next, may involve keeping track of new states. The described approach supports the requirement to maintain an amount of requests, by using request counters to maintain the necessary state, heed backpressure, and deliver requests as soon as they are issued by the Subscriber owning the Subscription.

  • Patent number: 11665227
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for intelligently managing sessions in a mobile network. A selection engine receives a trigger to select a peer node for a subscriber session. The selection engine chooses a peer selector among one or more available peer selectors in response to the trigger and determines whether the chosen peer selector is associated with a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). In response to determining that the chosen peer selector is associated with the FQDN, the selection engine determines whether a domain name system (DNS) server is configured. In response to determining that the DNS server is configured, the selection engine requests a peer list associated with the FQDN from the DNS server and selects the peer node from the peer list.
