Patent number: 11775655Abstract: An artificial intelligence (AI) platform to support optimization of container builds and virtual machine mounts in a distributed computing environment. A provisioning file is subject to natural language processing (NLP) and a corresponding vector representation of the file is created and subject to evaluation by a set of artificial neural networks (ANN). A first ANN assesses the representation of the file with respect to compliance and operability, and the second ANN selectively assesses the representation of the file with respect to provisioning efficiency. The provisioning file is selectively process based on the provisioning efficiency, with the processing directed at provisioning a container build or mounting a VM.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Abhishek Malvankar, John M.

Publication number: 20230118939Abstract: An artificial intelligence (AI) platform to support selective replacement of one or more image layers of a container image build. A metadata file is subject to natural language processing and one or more corresponding vector representations are created and subject to evaluation by a set of artificial neural networks (ANNs). A first ANN assesses each vector representation with respect to compliance and operability, and the second ANN selectively assesses the vector representation(s) with respect to similarity with one or more compliant vector representations. In response to the assignment of the second score, at least one vector representation of the received metadata file is selectively replaced with at least one compliant vector representation. The metadata file is selectively provisioned with the selectively replaced vector representation(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2021Publication date: April 20, 2023Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Abhishek Malvankar, Carlos A.
