Abstract: A device receives, from a cloud computing environment, cloud instance information associated with cloud instances in the cloud computing environment, and processes the cloud instance information, with a machine learning model, to determine containers for one or more of the cloud instances and whether cloud instances should be removed from the cloud computing environment. The device causes a first subset of the cloud instances to be removed from the cloud computing environment, based on determining which of the cloud instances should be removed, and causes the containers to be created for a second subset of the cloud instances based on determining the containers. The device receives, from the cloud computing environment, cloud container information associated with the containers created in the cloud computing environment, and causes one or more of the containers to be scaled based on the cloud container information.

Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods include configuring behavior of a machine in a physical environment based on detected interactions with the physical environment. In some cases, an electronic identification device identifies a presence of an object in the physical environment. An attribute corresponding to the identified object is determined, the attribute identifying a characteristic of a user or group or users of the physical environment. The attribute is matched to a parameter indicating an environment device and a configuration of the environment device. In some cases, the configuration is based on historical information about interactions in the physical environment, and the user characteristic. Behavior of the environment device is modified based on the configuration.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a network assurance service that monitors a network detects anomalies in the network by applying one or more machine learning models to telemetry data from the network. The network assurance service ranks feedback from a plurality of anomaly rankers regarding relevancy or criticality of the detected anomalies. The network assurance service clusters the plurality of anomaly rankers into clusters of similar rankers, based on the received ranking feedback. The network assurance service uses the clusters of similar rankers to assign reliability scores to each of the anomaly rankers. The network assurance service selects, based on the reliability scores, a subset of the plurality of anomaly rankers to receive an anomaly detection alert regarding a particular detected anomaly to be ranked. The network assurance service provides the anomaly detection alert to the selected subset of the plurality of anomaly rankers for ranking.

Abstract: In an enterprise computing system, in response to operation of a plurality of mobile applications on a mobile device, a system server receives application event data and stores the application event data as event entries in an event repository. Each event entry identifies mobile application activity for a respective mobile application running on the mobile device. In response to a trigger condition, a server performs activity evaluation operations on the event entries stored in the event repository to identify a frequent sequence of application events occurring for a subset of the mobile applications. Based on the frequent sequence of application events, the server creates a widget incorporating corresponding application control instructions effective to automatically replicate the frequent sequence of application events when the widget is deployed and invoked on the mobile device.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing media presentations that include content originating from multiple sources in ways that are effectively transparent to end user devices. Manifest data provided to an end user device include a key encoded in the URL for each of the content fragments. The key encodes one or more interstitial periods of secondary content within the overall presentation of primary content. When a media server receives a content request from the end user device, the media server determines from the key encoded in the URL and the range of content requested whether the request corresponds to the primary content or the secondary content.

Abstract: The system and method described herein provide an order fulfillment database system. The order fulfillment database system may provide a high throughput speed, high availability, redundancy, and scalability. The order fulfillment database system supports very fast transaction times for atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability (ACID) transactions. Order services instances at a primary cluster provide in-memory databases that service segments of the persistent database and are associated with different order fulfillment entities. A routing manager routes database messages to the appropriate order services instance. A secondary cluster of order services instances provides redundancy. A retry procedure preserves the integrity of the database transactions based on a current operational state of the primary order services instances.
