Abstract: In one embodiment, during participation in an online collaborative computing session, a computer process associated with the session may monitor an audio stream of the session for a predefined action-inducing phrase. In response to the phrase, a subsequent segment of the session is recorded, such that a report may be generated containing any recorded segments of the session (e.g., and dynamically sent to participants of the session).

Abstract: Systems and devices enabling a highly compact design for a fiber-based lasing and/or amplifying system are disclosed. In some instances, a tightly-coiled active optical fiber may be coupled with a seed source and a pump source for optical amplification and other applications. Such systems can be disposed in a small footprint package such as a butterfly package or a high heat load package. In some instances, the tightly-wound active optical fiber may further include a fiber Bragg grating adapted to accommodate bends in the active optical fiber. The active optical fiber may further utilize a cladding shaped to maintain an orientation of the active optical fiber in relation to a bend in the fiber.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for monitoring an application or service group within one cluster as a resource of another cluster are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method involves detecting an error indication generated by a first cluster (e.g., the error indication can be generated by a cluster controller or service group within the first cluster). The first cluster is implemented on a cluster resource (e.g., a virtual machine) of a second cluster. In response to detecting the error indication, restart of the cluster resource is initiated.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a technique for performing partial build fabric operations when merging two or more Fibre Channel fabrics is provided. By maintaining a Principal Switch already assigned for one of two merging fabrics, a limited “partial build” may be performed for the other merging fabric. As a result, the time required for a Principal Switch selection phase may be greatly reduced.
