Publication number: 20180083872Abstract: Methods and apparatus that allow clients to connect resource instances to virtual networks in provider network environments via private IP. Via private IP linking methods and apparatus, a client of a provider network can establish private IP communications between the client's resource instances on the provider network and the client's resource instances provisioned in the client's virtual network via links from the private IP address space of the virtual network to the private IP address space of the provider network. The provider network client resource instances remain part of the client's provider network implementation and may thus also communicate with other resource instances on the provider network and/or with entities on external networks via public IP while communicating with the virtual network resource instances via private IP.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2017Publication date: March 22, 2018Applicant: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: KEVIN CHRISTOPHER MILLER, ANDREW BRUCE DICKINSON, ERIC WAYNE SCHULTZE, IAN ROGER SEARLE, SHANE ASHLEY HALL, DEEPAK MOHAN, DAVID BRIAN LENNON

Patent number: 9882968Abstract: A control-plane component of a virtual network interface (VNI) multiplexing service assigns one or more VNIs as members of a first interface group. A first VNI of the interface group is attached to a first compute instance. Network traffic directed to a particular endpoint address associated with the first interface group is to be distributed among members of the first interface group by client-side components of the service. The control-plane component propagates membership metadata of the first interface group to the client-side components. In response to a detection of an unhealthy state of the first compute instance, the first VNI is attached to a different compute instance by the control-plane component.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2014Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Tobias Lars-Olov Holgers, Kevin Christopher Miller, Andrew Bruce Dickinson, David Carl Salyers, Xiao Zhang, Shane Ashley Hall, Christopher Ian Hendrie, Aniket Deepak Divecha, Ralph William Flora

Patent number: 9361375Abstract: A system and method is described that maintains a record of research performed by a user of an information retrieval system in a manner that reduces the amount of work required by the user to maintain such a record. The system and method obtains information implicitly generated through the interaction of the user with the information retrieval system while performing research and uses such information to automatically construct a research document for the user about a particular research topic. The research document or a means of access thereto is then presented to the user. The research document is configured to maintain both the implicitly-generated data recorded by the system as well as data explicitly provided or collected by the user, such as retrieved document content and user notes, in a manner that is highly-organized and easy to access, augment, and maintain.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2008Date of Patent: June 7, 2016Assignee: EXCALIBUR IP, LLCInventors: Liang-Yu Chi, Ashley Hall
