  • Patent number: 11704702
    Abstract: Systems and related methods providing for dynamic message creation are discussed herein. Circuitry may be configured receive generic configuration data that references work chunks for message generation and time data indicating a message send time. The work chunks may include references to message data, but not the actual message data. Based on the time data, the work chunks may be placed in a message queue. Circuitry may also be configured to retrieve a work chunk from the message queue and to generate one or more messages based on the retrieved work chunk. The references to message data in the work chunk may be used to retrieve the message data at the time of message generation.

  • Publication number: 20220044280
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for determining when an electronic correspondence is reviewed by a consumer, and referencing this information when generating a subsequent electronic correspondence. The information may be used to determine when to send the subsequent electronic correspondence to the consumer. For example, the subsequent correspondence may be sent at the same time of day as when the consumer is determined to have previously reviewed an electronic correspondence. The information may also be used to determine what to include in the subsequent electronic correspondence. For example, time-sensitive promotions that are selected based on the information identifying the previous time at which the consumer reviewed a previous electronic correspondence, may be included in the subsequent electronic correspondence.

  • Patent number: 10728179
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for pushing configuration changes of a distributed virtual switch from a management server to a plurality of host servers underlying the distributed virtual switch. The approach includes sending, in parallel, by the management server, a message to each of the plurality of host servers. The message specifies a final configuration state for one or more virtual ports emulated via virtualization layers of the host servers. The approach further includes determining, by each of the plurality of host servers, port state configuration changes to make to the virtual ports to achieve the final configuration state, and reconfiguring, by each of the plurality of host servers, their respective virtual ports, to match the final configuration state.
