  • Patent number: 10810095
    Abstract: Techniques and systems for performing a network activity within a network. The technique includes assigning one or a plurality of network devices subnets with network devices for performing network activities. Network devices within the assigned network device subnets can be assigned to act as a primary network device and a backup network device. The primary network device can perform the network activity. The backup network devices can monitor the primary network device and continue performing the network activities if the primary network device fails or is rogue.

  • Publication number: 20200044981
    Abstract: Techniques and systems for establishing and maintaining networks. The technique includes assigning a network device to an interregional redirector system and load balancer systems. The network device can be assigned based upon the regions or subregions of the network device. The technique includes the load balancer systems assigning the network device to network device management engines. The status of the network device management engines can be monitored to determine if one of the network device management engines has failed. In the event that a network device management engine has failed, the network device can be assigned to a different network device management engine.

  • Publication number: 20100257043
    Abstract: A method and system for embedding applications in a web platform are described. In order to subscribe to an embedded application, the web platform receives a subscription request from a user to subscribe to the application along with configuration data. The configuration data includes both default fields from the platform itself and application-specific data requested by the application developer. This data is provided to the developer who may authorize the subscription request, reject the subscription request, or inform the web platform that the subscription is pending and awaiting review for a decision at a later time.

  • Publication number: 20060021068
    Abstract: A system for permitting offline content playback and for managing the rights to one or more digital content files within a computer network. The system manages these rights by encrypting the content files to prevent unauthorized access to the files. Encryption is accomplished by using one or more keys which are associated with one or more segments of the content file. These keys enable an authorized user to decrypt and playback the content files at a subsequent time. When the keys are received, a license which specifies the rights of the user regarding the content files, is obtained by the end user system, and verified locally to permit the content playback.
