Abstract: File commit and commit-delete operations can be successfully completed in environments that employ an overlay optimizer to enhance the performance of a write filter. The overlay optimizer can be structured into upper and lower instances relative to the write filter. The upper instance can cause files to be moved from the write filter's overlay into an overlay cache to thereby optimize the performance of the overlay. To prevent the failure of commit and commit-delete operations that target files that have been moved to the overlay cache, the lower instance can be configured to detect when the write filter is attempting to perform a commit or commit-delete operation and can modify the processing of such operations to cause them to be completed successfully even though the files targeted by the operations do not exist in the write filter's overlay.

Abstract: Authentication devices can be intelligently redirected in a VDI environment to thereby ensure that the redirected authentication devices remain available for authentication even after a remote session has been locked. This intelligent redirection of authentication devices can be accomplished in a way that only requires server-side modifications and that is agnostic to the remoting protocol used to establish the remote session.

Abstract: An overlay optimizer can prevent cross-volume moves to optimize the performance of a write filter. The overlay optimizer can be configured to detect when a file move is being attempted and can modify the handling of the file move so that a cross-volume move is not performed. In the case where the file move would result in a file being moved from the volume where the overlay cache is implemented, the overlay optimizer can create a copy of the target directory tree in the overlay cache and redirect the move to the newly created directory. In the case where the file move would result in a file being moved to the volume where the overlay cache is implemented, the overlay optimizer can forgo redirection so that the file will be moved within the same volume.

Abstract: A messaging system, in one embodiment, can establish messaging accounts for a plurality of organizations (e.g., businesses) to allow customers or users of the organizations to conduct two-way messaging sessions between a customer and an organization. The messaging system can use a registration portal to allow an organization to set up a business/organization messaging account by providing account information. The account information can then be used to update one or more searchable databases that allow a customer to have multiple entry points into a messaging session with each of the registered businesses in the messaging system. For example, a search through a web browser or a map application can provide search results that contain or otherwise provide access to a selectable messaging option that is presented on a customer's device.

Abstract: Isochronous endpoints of a redirected USB device can be accelerated. When a USB device is redirected, each of the device's endpoints can be identified. A UDP socket can then be created between the client-side proxy and the server-side agent for each isochronous endpoint, while a TCP socket can be created for each other endpoint. A lookup table can also be created which maps pipe handles to socket IDs. The lookup table can be employed to route USB request blocks pertaining to a particular endpoint over the corresponding socket. In this way, USB request blocks pertaining to an isochronous endpoint will be transferred over the network using UDP while USB request blocks pertaining to non-isochronous endpoints will be transferred using TCP.

Abstract: A system and method include classifying and assigning virtual disks accessed from compute only nodes. The method determines, by a management processor of a virtual computing system, characteristics for a plurality of virtual disks hosted on a plurality of hyper converged nodes in a cluster of nodes in the virtual computing system. The method further classifies, by the management processor, each of the plurality of virtual disks based on the determined characteristics and identifies, by the management processor, one of the plurality of virtual disks to host data for a virtual machine on a compute only node based on the classification to spread out input-output demand in the cluster, reducing probability of input-output bottlenecks and increasing cluster-wide storage throughput. The method also assigns, by the management processor, the identified virtual disk to host data for the virtual machine located on the compute only node.

Abstract: Renames can be handled in an overlay optimizer to ensure that the rename operations do not fail due to source and target volumes being different. The overlay optimizer can implement a process for linking the two IRP_MJ_CREATE operations that the operating system sends as part of a rename operation. Due to this linking, the overlay optimizer can determine when the second IRP of a rename operation is being processed and can determine the source volume for the operation. When the source volume is the volume of the overlay cache, the overlay optimizer can redirect the second IRP. This will ensure that the rename operation will complete successfully even in cases where the rename operation was initiated without specifying the MOVEFILE_COPY_ALLOWED flag.

Abstract: Cache hits are increased for URBs that target a redirected USB device. When a virtual bus driver in a VDI environment queues an IRP for an URB that targets the redirected USB device, it can ensure that the IRP and therefore the URB is completed on the same processor that originated the URB. This can be accomplished in both NUMA and non-NUMA multiprocessor environments.
