  • Patent number: 11954267
    Abstract: One example of an internet protocol (IP) keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) device includes a universal serial bus, a display port, a network port, and a processor. The USB port is to be communicatively coupled to a host device. The display port is to be communicatively coupled to the host device. The network port is to be communicatively coupled to a network. The processor is communicatively coupled to the USB port, the display port, and the network port. The processor is to receive, via the display port, a multi-stream transport (MST) DisplayPort signal; demux the MST DisplayPort signal to provide a plurality of individual video streams; and output, via the network port, each individual video stream.

  • Patent number: 11947490
    Abstract: Large numbers of files having widely varying structures and formats may be ingested, and used to generate dynamic slot indexes that enable fast and reliable searching of the files. Unique data patterns within the files are used to generate unique pattern models, which enable model-specific mappings of file fields to slots of a dynamic slot index. Accordingly, the dynamic slot indexes may reuse a single slot for multiple fields. Complex queries may then be processed in a time-efficient and resource-efficient manner, even when rapidly ingesting huge numbers of files having indeterminate data patterns from many different sources.

  • Patent number: 11625280
    Abstract: A cloud-native proxy gateway is reachable from a central server and from an isolated cloud VM. A method allows legacy (non-cloud native) solutions to establish a secure connection to the isolated cloud VM, even when incoming port flows are not enabled. The method involves transforming a TCP/IP network connection request into a cloud API call, ignoring IP addresses, and instead using a unique cloud resource identifier as the primary network routing methodology. In response to a communication connection request by the central server, the isolated VM establishes a reverse tunnel to the cloud-native proxy gateway. Communication flow initiated by the central server proceeds through the reverse tunnel to the isolated VM, avoiding an issue of duplicate IP addresses in the cloud.

  • Patent number: 11386170
    Abstract: A content engine may utilize a configuration management database (CMDB) to manage a configuration of a technology landscape. A curation manager 102 may utilize a plurality of article sources to provide, in collaboration with the content engine, a plurality of enriched articles that are specific to the technology landscape. The enriched articles enable an IT administrator using the content engine to execute IT administration duties in a fast, efficient, reliable, and timely manner.

  • Patent number: 10972353
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for identifying a common change window for one or more services implemented on one or more hosts include querying time series performance data for each host of a service to identify time slots of low resource consumption on the host, annotating the time slots with service tags, where the service tags identify host information and service information, creating groups of time slots using the service tags, using dynamic clustering to create clusters of hosts using the groups of time slots, and generating at least one common change window by eliminating duplicate hosts from the clusters of the hosts.
