  • Patent number: 11201936
    Abstract: Optimizations are provided for interconnecting event sources with event subscribers in a seamless manner so that the native formatting/schema methodologies used by event sources and subscribers will not need to be natively modified. An event grid service is provided as a routing and mapping service. This event grid service receives event data that may be organized in any kind of format. By analyzing the format, the event grid service determines whether the format correlates with a format used by a consumer of that event data. If the formats conform, then the event grid service extracts relevant data from the event data and pushes it to the subscriber. If the formats do not conform, the event grid service intelligently generates a mapping to map the two formats together.

  • Patent number: 9392067
    Abstract: An access point device is configured to improve usability of tethering, while improving battery life and managing data usage among and by the tethered devices. Both access point devices and client devices can remain in a low power state without a high power radio being powered until a shared network connection is to be used. To establish a connection to a network for the client device, the client device communicates with the access point device over a lower power communication device, such as a low power radio. The access point device activates its higher power radio. The two devices then connect over the high power radio, allowing the client device to then to use the access point device as a router to connect to a computer network.
