Abstract: An example method includes detecting, using sensors, packets throughout a datacenter. The sensors can then send packet logs to various collectors which can then identify and summarize data flows in the datacenter. The collectors can then send flow logs to an analytics module which can identify the status of the datacenter and detect an attack.

Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer-storage media, and graphical user interfaces are provided for facilitating efficient meeting management, according to embodiments of the present technology. In one embodiment, engagement data associated with an attendee of an online meeting is obtained. Thereafter, an engagement metric is generated using the engagement data, the engagement metric indicating an extent of engagement of the attendee to the online meeting. Based on the engagement metric indicating that the extent of engagement of the attendee to the online meeting falls below an engagement threshold, a request is provided to disconnect or throttle an audio and/or video stream of the online meeting to and/or from an attendee device associated with the attendee of the online meeting. Efficient meeting management may also be performed by clustering related messages.

Abstract: A system includes detection of a first allocation of a first memory size in an object store for storage of a first logical page, in response to detection of the first allocation, incrementing a count associated with the first memory size by a first data structure associating a respective count with each of a plurality of memory sizes, detection of a first deallocation of the first logical page, in response to detection of the first deallocation, decrementing a count associated with a second one of the plurality of memory sizes by the first data structure, and determination of a memory usage associated with the object store based on the counts associated with each of the plurality of memory sizes by the first data structure wherein the second one of the plurality of memory sizes is different from the first memory size.

Abstract: A visibility controlling device with switchable transparency. This design of visibility controlling device is economical and can be operated manually or under electric power. The time for switching from translucent to transparent state requires about 5-30 seconds.

Abstract: An Application Data Management System (ADMS) enables an application file system to be mounted at any selected reconstruction time (TR). If the reconstruction time TR falls intermediate snapshot creation timepoints, the ADMS creates a version of the application file system at the selected reconstruction time TR using a snapshot of the data file from a previous application file system snapshot creation timepoint, and a snapshot of the log file from a subsequent application file system snapshot creation timepoint. The ADMS uses the snapshot of the log file from the subsequent snapshot creation timepoint to replay transactions on the snapshot of the data file from the previous snapshot creation timepoint up to the selected reconstruction time TR. This enables the state of the application file system to be recreated and mounted at any arbitrary selected reconstruction time, even if the selected reconstruction time is not coincident with snapshot creation timepoints.

Abstract: Circuitry comprises processing circuitry to execute program instructions to access a secondary device in an execution mode selected from at least a first execution mode and a second execution mode; and control circuitry to indicate a current execution mode by which the processing circuitry currently accesses the secondary device in response to an access request initiated by the execution by the processing circuitry of program instructions, in which the control circuitry is configured to require the access request to indicate a given execution mode as the current execution mode to be initiated by program instructions executed in the given execution mode.

Abstract: A method for managing a storage includes applying, by a host, a first type of snapshot service to the LU of the storage, wherein the LU is identified by a logical unit number (LUN), in response to applying the first snapshot service, making a first determination that the LU is not visible to the host, wherein the host is operationally coupled to the storage and the first snapshot service continues to be applied to the LU, in response to the first determination, discontinuing applying the first type of snapshot service to the LU, and when the first snapshot service is no longer applied to the LU, applying, by the host, a second type of snapshot service to the LU.
