  • Patent number: 11711330
    Abstract: Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for enabling out of office message settings of multiple computing systems using a single out of office message configuration. A request to generate an out of office message configuration associated with a user is received and an indication of computing systems associated with the request is obtained. In addition, an indication of a start date, an indication of an end date, and an out of office message are obtained in association with the request. The out of office message configuration is saved such that the start date, end date, and out of office message are associated with the computing systems and the user.

  • Publication number: 20220027146
    Abstract: Provided herein are system, method, and/or computer program product embodiments and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof for updating configuration settings during the execution of an application. In a given embodiment, a central system may read a configuration value for a configuration setting of an application from a configuration file. The central system may assign the configuration value to a variable corresponding to the configuration setting. The central system may execute an operation on the variable corresponding to the configuration setting to change the variable to a new configuration value, independent of multiple threads executed by the application, while the application is being executed, and independent of the value of the configuration setting in the configuration file.

  • Patent number: 10936743
    Abstract: A method in an accessible datacenter connected to a data storage network is provided. The accessible datacenter comprises: at least one data pipeline, each of the at least one data pipeline connected to a respective secure datacenter and configured to receive data from each respective secure datacenter; a storage layer, configured to store the data received via the at least one data pipeline; and a visualization layer, configured to provide a user interface and to receive user input requesting access to the data. The method comprises: detecting scaling of the data storage network, the scaling comprising increasing available storage of the data storage network, the increasing available storage creating increased available storage; and providing access to the increased available storage continuously, via the visualization layer, without rendering the data storage network inaccessible during scaling; wherein the data is associated with the increased available storage.

  • Patent number: 10423799
    Abstract: A method for integrating a new secure datacenter into a data storage network is provided. The method detects, by an accessible datacenter connected to the data storage network, the new secure datacenter connected to the data storage network, wherein the new secure datacenter includes a high security level that prevents user access, and wherein the accessible datacenter includes a decreased security level that permits user access; expands a storage layer in the accessible datacenter, by increasing available storage hardware of the accessible datacenter; connects a data pipeline from the new secure datacenter to the storage layer in the accessible datacenter, wherein the data pipeline comprises dedicated servers configured to buffer data, orchestrate a cluster of servers, and push data from the new secure datacenter to the accessible datacenter; and provides end user access to the storage layer.
