  • Publication number: 20170317935
    Abstract: Disclosed are a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a computer-implemented method for event messaging over a network. A subscription interface receives data indicative of a subscription request for sessionized data. An allocation module allocates a sessionizer bank linked to the subscription request. A messaging interface module provisions identifiers linked to the respective processing engines of the sessionizer bank. The messaging interface module registers the allocated sessionizer bank as available to process event messages matching the subscription request by providing the provisioned identifiers. The messaging interface module receives event messages from a producer device linked by a collection server to a selected one of the processing engines of the sessionizer bank. The selected one of the processing engine processes the received event messages in accordance with session rule data linked to the subscription request to generate sessionized data.

  • Patent number: 9690663
    Abstract: A data storage system may be configured to allocate replica-sets in a balanced manner and mark some of these balanced replica-sets as being spares. As one or more drives or machines fail, the data storage system may move all copies of an affected replica-set to a marked spare replica-set and mark the affected replica-set as being inactive or invalid. As the failed drives are replaced, the data storage system may reconfigure those inactive replica-sets and use them as new spares. The data storage system may implement a coordinator module that handles the balancing and allocation of spares within a sub-cluster. The coordinator may also reallocate entire replica-sets across sub-clusters to maintain balance at the cluster level.

  • Publication number: 20160219089
    Abstract: Disclosed are a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a computer-implemented method for providing partial views of event streams over a network. A subscription manager receives subscription data from a client device. A messaging interface module receives an event stream comprising event messages. A normalizer converts the received event stream to a table of entries. The entries correspond to respective event messages. A view processor selects a portion of the converted first event stream based at least on the entries of the selected portion of the event stream matching the subscription data. The view processor provides the selected portion of the converted event stream for transmission as session data to the subscriber.

  • Patent number: 9264518
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer-readable medium are described herein. An embodiment may read a configuration file. The configuration file may specify a first stage that specifies processing of a protocol-agnostic portion of a message. The embodiment may then add, by one or more processors, the first stage to a processing pipeline, where the processing pipeline is configured to process received messages according to the first stage and a second stage. The second stage is a stage of the processing pipeline that specifies processing of a protocol-specific portion of the message. The processing pipeline being further configured to transport the processed message to a service via a transport mechanism.
