  • Patent number: 10699706
    Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing a communications system between multiple electronic devices are described herein. In some embodiments, first audio data representing a first utterance may be received from an initiating device. A first user account associated with the initiating device may be determined. After determining that the utterance comprises an intent to communicate with a target, a list of entity names associated with the user account may be generated. Each entity name may represent a user contact associated with the first user account, a user device corresponding to the first user account, and/or a set of entity names representing user contacts and devices. Based on a relative comparison of each entity name to the target's name, an entity name may be selected from the plurality of entity names. A communications session may then be established between the initiating device and a device represented by the selected entity name.

  • Patent number: 10467143
    Abstract: An event-driven-cache service receives a request from a client to establish a cache. In response, the event-driven-cache service registers a cache function in an event-driven compute service and defines events that trigger the cache function in the event-driven compute service. The event-driven compute service receives a request to get data from or set data to the cache. In response to the request, the event-driven compute service sends event information to a selected container and the container launches the cache function. For a set request, the cache function adds data to a dedicated persistent storage of the container. For a get request, the cache function determines whether requested data is valid in the dedicated persistent storage and returns the data or a miss indication to the client. Upon completion of the request, the container terminates the cache function and the data remains in the dedicated persistent storage of the container.
