Abstract: The disclosed technology is generally directed to virtual machines. In one example of the technology, a network change from a first virtual network to a second virtual network is reconfigured for a first virtual machine that is executing on a first virtual machine host. The reconfiguring includes the following. In the first virtual machine host, a mapping change from the first virtual network to the second virtual network is configured by reprogramming drivers in the first virtual machine host for route mapping for the second virtual network. A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) retrigger is caused without rebooting the first virtual machine. A configuration file is provided to the first virtual machine. The configuration file includes user-specific networking settings. The first virtual machine is reconfigured in accordance with the user-specific networking settings.

Abstract: A virtual network manager and associated user interface/portal provide customers with simplified centralized management of virtual networks to implement logical groupings of network resources at scale. The virtual network manager enables network segmentation using names or tags, connectivity configuration to create different virtual network topologies, security configuration to provide enforcement of organizational rules without being overwritten and Network Security Group (NSG) management in a simple and scalable manner, safe deployment of network configurations to designated regions on a fix and roll forward basis, and virtual network (VNet) level monitoring.

Abstract: A network interface controller (NIC) associated with a virtual machine (VM) in a cloud computing network is configured to be flexibly attached and detached from a parent NIC to thereby enable the virtual machine to simultaneously be attached to multiple different virtual networks (VNets) and/or subnets that are associated with the same or different subscriptions. The inventive NIC, referred to herein as a flexibly extensible NIC (eNIC), enables a service provider to inject compute instances into an existing VNet using a multi-homing configuration in which the data plane uses a dedicated network interface to connect the customer's VNet, while another dedicated network interface provides management plane connectivity to the service provider. Such multi-VNet homing advantageously provides data plane isolation for the customer's VNet to comply with applicable security policies without disrupting management traffic between the injected resources and the service provider.

Abstract: Embodiments include a multi-tenant cloud system that receives a request for an authenticate action for a user. Embodiments create an authenticate target action and register a cache listener for a cache that includes a filter to listen for a target action response that is responsive to the authenticate target action, the filter listing a plurality of bridges assigned to an on-premise active directory. Embodiments randomly select one of the plurality of bridges and sends the authenticate target action to the active directory via the selected bridge. Embodiments wait for a cache callback and, at the cache callback, receive a target action response that includes a result of the authenticate action.

Abstract: A virtual network interface controller (NIC) associated with a virtual machine in a cloud computing network is configured to support one or more network containers that encapsulate networking configuration data and policies that are applicable to a specific discrete computing workload to thereby enable the virtual machine to simultaneously belong to multiple virtual networks using the single NIC. The network containers supported by the NIC can be associated with a single tenant to enable additional flexibility such quickly switching between virtual networks and support pre-provisioning of additional computing resources with associated networking policies for rapid deployment. The network containers can also be respectively associated with different tenants so that the single NIC can support multi-tenant services on the same virtual machine.

Abstract: Digital signal processing circuitry, in operation, determines, based on accelerometer data, a carry-position of a device. Double-tap detection parameters are set using the determined carry-position. Double-taps are detected using the set double-tap detection parameters. In response to detection of a double-tap, control signals, such as a flag or an interrupt signal, are generated and used to control operation of the device. For example, a device may enter a wake mode of operation in response to detection of a double-tap.

In one aspect a computer-implement method is provided that breaks down the processing from a single large thread or operation into multiple minutest level threads or operations and makes use of event driven architecture used in distributed environments such as a cloud environment, to achieve a scalable model and can work seamlessly for multi-tenant applications. Every sub problem is assigned to a dedicated set of subscribers on a messaging service for processing.

Abstract: Systems, methods and devices are provided to improve management and accuracy of timestamps associated with sensor-based data. An indication is received of a sensor event associated with data samples provided from a sensor having an output data rate. A respective timestamp is assigned to each of the data samples. Assigning the respective timestamp may include, responsive to a determination that the indicated event is an interrupt event, calculating an actual data sampling interval based at least in part on time intervals between previous sensor events and a on a quantity of the one or more data samples.

Abstract: A system includes a processor executing instructions from a computer-readable storage medium. The instructions include, in response to receiving a job request that identifies a first tenant, obtaining a first virtual network key (VNK) corresponding to the first tenant. The instructions include identifying a first computing system that has resources available to satisfy the job request. The instructions include transmitting a first command to the first computing system. The first command includes the first VNK, instructs the first computing system to assign a virtual machine to the job request, and associates the first VNK with the assigned virtual machine. The instructions include, in response to completion of the job request, transmitting a second command to the first computing system. The second command instructs the first computing system to associate a default VNK with the assigned virtual machine. The default VNK does not correspond to the first tenant.
