Abstract: Approaches are provided for message broadcasting within a clustered computing environment such as a Cloud computing environment. Specifically, a message received from a message queue (e.g., on a message queue server) is processed at a single node of a plurality of nodes within the clustered computing environment. This single node identifies a set of message listeners to whom the message should be broadcast (e.g., based on a topic of the message and an association of the topic to the set of message listeners). The single node then publishes the message to the set of message listeners. Delivery confirmations, responses, etc., associated with the message are then tracked, processed, and/or routed by the single node.

Specifically, a message received from message queue (e.g., on a message queue server) is processed at a single node of a plurality of nodes within the clustered computing environment. The single node can be selected based on factors such as a best available node within the plurality of nodes. This single node identifies a set of message listeners to whom the message should be broadcast (e.g., based on a topic of the message and an association of the topic to the set of message listeners).

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide message broadcasting within a clustered computing environment such as a Cloud computing environment. Specifically, under the present invention, a message is received in a message queue (e.g., on a message queue server). From the message queue, the message is sent to a single node of a plurality of heterogeneous nodes within the clustered computing environment. The single node can be selected based on any factor such as a best available node within the plurality of nodes. This single node will process the message and identify a set of message listeners to whom the message should be broadcast. Typically, the set of message listeners is identified based on a topic of the message and an association of the topic to the set of message listeners (e.g., as set forth in a table or the like). In any event, the single node will then publish the message to the set of message listeners. Delivery confirmations, responses, etc.

Abstract: An apparatus for enabling resiliency for cloud computing systems is provided. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory storing computer program code. The memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the processor, cause the apparatus to perform actions. The actions include modifying a topology graph of a network architecture by mapping processes flows onto the topology graph and creating a resiliency graph based on the modified topology graph. The actions also include modifying the resiliency graph by translating at least one SLA into the resiliency graph and identifying overlaps and dependencies in the modified resiliency graph. Apparatus and computer readable instructions are also described.

Abstract: An embodiment of the invention provides a method for displaying a message from a first user to a second user, wherein the message from the first user is received in a system of the second user. The message includes text in an intended font and metadata, wherein the metadata includes a link to a font source. It is determined whether the intended font is on the system of the second user; and, if the intended font is not on the system of the second user, rendering instructions are obtained from the font source. The rendering instructions include instructions on how to display the text in the intended font on the system of the second user without downloading the intended font to the system of the second user. The text is displayed in the intended font on the system of the second user using the rendering instructions.

Abstract: An application server administration framework (ASAF) minimizes the number of manual steps during the installation or modification processes by allowing a user to accomplish the installation or modification by entering values in a property file. A deployment script is invoked that identifies changes in the property files, and invokes appropriate procedures from a procedure script. The procedure script links the property file to one or more component scripts so that the values entered by the administrator are populated to the appropriate component scripts. When the values have been populated to the appropriate component scripts, the deployment script invokes the scripting engine which runs the scripts to make the necessary changes to the configuration files for the application server.
