Patent number: 9104487Abstract: A capability is provided for reducing response variance of virtual processors. A controller receives a processing request. The controller may propagate the processing request toward multiple virtual processors hosted on multiple hardware devices contemporaneously. The controller may propagate the processing request toward a first virtual processor hosted on a first hardware device and propagate the processing request toward a second virtual processor hosted on a second hardware device based on a determination that a timeout period expires before a processing response is received from the first virtual processor. The timeout period may be determined based on one or more response time statistics of the virtual processor and one or more response time statistics of a physical processor.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2012Date of Patent: August 11, 2015Assignee: Alcatel LucentInventors: Iraj Saniee, Li Li, Eric J Bauer, Randee S Adams

Patent number: 9075660Abstract: A capability is provided for improving service availability experienced by a user requesting access to a service via a user device, where the service has multiple service instances available from multiple data centers. A set of servicing data centers is selected for the user device. The set of servicing data centers is selected from a set of candidate data centers. The set of servicing data centers is selected from the set of candidate data centers in a manner for maximizing the independence/orthogonality of the network paths between the user device and the servicing data centers. The set of servicing data centers includes two or more of the candidate data centers from which the user device may access the service, thereby providing the user device with a primary service instance and one or more backup service instances which may be used to access the service.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2012Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: Alcatel LucentInventors: Yang Guo, Eric J.

Publication number: 20150113144Abstract: A virtual resource placement management capability is presented herein. The virtual resource placement management capability enables a cloud consumer to manage placement of virtual resources of the cloud consumer by a cloud service provider within a cloud environment of the cloud service provider. The virtual resource placement management capability may support management of placement of virtual resources of a cloud consumer onto physical resources of a cloud service provider (e.g., physical resources used by the cloud service provider to provide a cloud environment), which also may be referred to herein as mapping of virtual resources of a cloud consumer onto physical resources of a cloud service provider. The virtual resource placement management capability may support management of placement of virtual resources of a cloud-based application or a cloud-based solution of a cloud consumer onto physical resources of a cloud service provider.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2013Publication date: April 23, 2015Applicant: Alcatel-Lucent USA Inc.Inventors: Eric J.

Patent number: 8977886Abstract: Various embodiments provide a method and apparatus of providing a rapid disaster recovery preparation in cloud networks that proactively detects disaster events and rapidly allocates cloud resources. Rapid disaster recovery preparation may shorten the recovery time objective (RTO) by proactively growing capacity on the recovery application(s)/resource(s) before the surge of recovery traffic hits the recovery application(s)/resource(s). Furthermore, rapid disaster recovery preparation may shorten RTO by growing capacity more rapidly than during “normal operation” where the capacity is increased by modest growth after the load has exceeded a utilization threshold for a period of time.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2012Date of Patent: March 10, 2015Assignee: Alcatel LucentInventors: Eric J.
