Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing services based on infrastructure distributed between multiple cloud service providers. Low-latency high-bandwidth cross-cloud services can be provisioned and managed by and between private clouds of cloud service providers. The techniques include forming a cloud network between a first set of compute resources of a first infrastructure of a first cloud environment and a second set of compute resources of a second infrastructure of a second cloud environment. The first cloud environment is provided by a first cloud service provider and the second cloud environment is provided by a second cloud service provider different from the first cloud service provider.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for provisioning and managing resources within a cloud infrastructure of a first cloud service provider for cloud services offered by a second cloud service provider. Cross-cloud services can be provisioned and managed by and between private clouds of cloud service providers. The techniques include receiving a request for a cloud service by a component of a first private cloud within a first cloud environment and from a component of a second private cloud within a second cloud environment. The techniques further include the component of the first private cloud performing one or more operations to establish network connectivity prerequisites for network connectivity between the first private cloud and the second private cloud and causing one or more components of the first private cloud to provision the cloud service in the second private cloud.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for provisioning a cloud service of a first cloud service provider using a control plane of a second cloud service provider. The techniques include detecting that a request for a cloud service provided by the first cloud service provider has been received from the second cloud environment of a second cloud service provider different from the first cloud service provider. The techniques further include, after detecting that the request for the cloud service has been received, provisioning a first set of resources within the first cloud environment and linking the first set of resources to a second set of resources within the second cloud environment. Linking the first set of resources to the second set of resources enables data pertaining to the cloud service to be transferred from the second cloud environment to the first cloud environment.

Abstract: An architecture for offering a service of a first cloud service provider via a second cloud service provider is disclosed. A first cloud service provider infrastructure includes a first infrastructure and a second infrastructure. The first infrastructure is physically connected to a third infrastructure of a second cloud service provider infrastructure based on a first protocol. The first infrastructure is also physically connected to the second infrastructure based on a second protocol that is different from the first protocol. Using the first and second infrastructures, low latency high-bandwidth cross-cloud services can be provisioned and managed between private clouds of different cloud service providers.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for managing the generation and processing of charging data records (CDRs) in a telecommunication environment (e.g., a fourth generation (4G) a fifth generation (5G), or future generation mobile network). The systems described herein involve predicting lengths of CDRs prior to encoding and providing the CDRs to a charging gateway function to ensure that the CDRs do not exceed a maximum allowable length that the charging gateway function is capable of processing while also reducing the total number of CDR packages that are encoded and transmitted. Indeed, the systems described herein can predict the length of the CDRs incrementally as charging containers are added, thus limiting the number of CDRs that are generated and processed.

Abstract: A connector device includes a pair of connectors including a pair of housings that has terminal housing chambers housing terminals and a pair of front holders that is attached to the pair of the housings to double-lock the terminals in the terminal housing chambers, wherein one of the pair of front holders has a first convex portion protruding in a direction approaching the other of the pair of front holders and a first concave portion recessed in a direction away from the other of the pair of front holders, the other of the pair of front holders has a second convex portion protruding in a direction approaching the one of the pair of front holders and a second concave portion recessed in a direction away from the one of the pair of front holders.

Abstract: A connector includes a housing and a front holder. The front holder includes an arm portion to be exposed at a side surface of the housing. The housing includes a pair of extension walls on the side surface of the housing to cover the arm portion. The pair of extension walls has a first part and a second part. In the first part, a distance between the extension ends of the extension walls is constant. In the second part, the distance increases gradually as they extend away from the first part in the attaching direction. A distal end of the arm portion is in a position corresponding to the second part when the front holder is in a final lock position, and the distal end of the arm portion is in a position corresponding to the first part when the front holder is in a preliminary lock position.
