Patent number: 11269927Abstract: A transactional replicator applying group commit and barrier concepts is disclosed. Group commit means that the transactional replicator commits multiple transactions in a group and is not restricted to committing single transactions one-at-a-time and is not limited to operating on a single state provider. Barrier means that the transactional replicator does not move forward to commit additional transactions until the previous group of transactions are completed. All state providers must apply their transactions and update state before additional transactions will be committed. A quorum acknowledgement “unlocks” any locks that were acquired to update the state within a state provider. However, as long as there are no lock conflicts, additional transactions can continue to create new group commits as necessary.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2019Date of Patent: March 8, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Gopal Krishna R. Kakivaya, Anurag Gupta, Sumukh Shivaprakash, Mihail G. Tarta, Mert Coskun

Patent number: 9569274Abstract: Embodiments are directed to managing multiple different types of applications using service groups. In one scenario, a computer system receives an indication of one or more application dependencies and characteristics that are to be implemented when an application is provisioned on a distributed host computer system. The computer system creates an application manifest that declaratively defines application dependencies and characteristics for various different service groups. Each service group includes applications that match the declaratively defined application dependencies and characteristics. The computer system also sends the manifest to the distributed host computer system which loads those applications that fit the manifest criteria onto available nodes of the distributed host computer system according to the service groups specified in the manifest.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2012Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Mihail G.

Patent number: 8489759Abstract: A system and methods for service discovery and publication are disclosed. Application programs write requests for service discovery, publication, and subscription to a service discovery application programming interface. The service discovery application programming interface invokes one or more lower-level protocols to satisfy the discovery, publication and/or subscription request. Service information retrieved from lower-layer protocols is formatted into a consistent data model and returned to the client application. In addition, service information may be stored in a persistent data store managed by a discovery persistence service communicatively connected to the service discovery API.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2010Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Jeffrey B. Parham, Charles R. Reeves, Lawrence A. Buerk, Angela Mills, Richard L. Hasha, Gopal Krishna R. Kakivaya, Andrew D. Milligan

Publication number: 20120079505Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for performing computations in a distributed infrastructure. Embodiments of the invention include a general purpose distributed computation infrastructure that can be used to perform efficient (in-memory), scalable, failure-resilient, atomic, flow-controlled, long-running state-less and state-full distributed computations. Guarantees provided by a distributed computation infrastructure can build upon existent guarantees of an underlying distributed fabric in order to hide the complexities of fault-tolerance, enable large scale highly available processing, allow for efficient resource utilization, and facilitate generic development of stateful and stateless computations. A distributed computation infrastructure can also provide a substrate on which existent distributed computation models can be enhanced to become failure-resilient.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2010Publication date: March 29, 2012Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Mihail Gavril Tarta, Gopal Krishna R.

Patent number: 7496682Abstract: Using a message exchanger (“message exchanger”), data messages are exchanged between entities in a decentralized, distributed, potentially heterogeneous, network environment. The message exchanger employs XML (extensible Markup Language). To accomplish this, the entities on both ends of the message exchange understand, identify, and parse the message format. The message exchanger defines such a mechanism. Data messages are broken down into two portions—one portion (the body) is intended from an ultimate destination and the other portion (the header) is intended for intermediate destination and/or the ultimate destination. The body may be defined so that it must be understood by the ultimate destination. The header may be defined so that it must be understood or changed. Regardless, the data in the body is delivered intact to the ultimate destination. The message exchanger defines a message envelope exchange format in XML over a transport protocol, such as HTTP (HyperText Transport Protocol).Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2006Date of Patent: February 24, 2009Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Andrew J. Layman, Gopal Krishna R. Kakivaya, Satish R. Thatte, Henrik F. Nielsen, Robert George Atkinson

Patent number: 7437711Abstract: Communication among agile objects and context-bound objects within object-oriented programming environments, including communication across contextual boundaries, is disclosed. In one embodiment, a reference to a second object within a second context is wrapped in a proxy wrapper. A first object within a first context calls the second object via the wrapped reference. No direct reference is held by the first object to the second object. Other embodiments relate to agile objects. Agile objects called by context-bound objects execute in the contexts of their callers. The context of a calling context-bound object becomes the context of an agile object for calling of the agile object by the calling context-bound object. Direct reference to the agile object by the context-bound object is thus permitted.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2003Date of Patent: October 14, 2008Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Christopher W. Brumme, James M. Lyon, Michael J. Toutonghi, Satish R. Thatte, Gopal Krishna R. Kakivaya, Richard D. Hill, Jan S. Gray, Craig H. Wittenberg, Rebecca A. Norlander, Scott G. Robinson, Eric W. Johnson

Patent number: 7281207Abstract: Herein is described an implementation of an object persister, which serializes an object to preserve the object's data structure and its current data. The serialized object is encoded using XML and inserted within a message. That message is transmitted to an entity over a network. Such a transmission is performed using standard Internet protocols, such as HTML. Upon receiving the serialized object, the receiving entity deserializes the object to use it. Rather than include copies of referenced objects within the serialized object, the object persister includes references to those objects. This avoids redundant inclusion of the same object and potentially infinite inclusion of the object itself that is being serialized.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2004Date of Patent: October 9, 2007Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Andrew J. Layman, Gopal Krishna R. Kakivaya, Satish R. Thatte

Patent number: 7260775Abstract: Described is a system and mechanism by which a client computer may issue a conventional request for a resource on the Web. A response to that request is annotated with information indicating that metadata is available for the resource. Specifically, a special tag or instruction may be included in the response document that indicates the existence and location of a discovery document containing metadata about the resource. The client computer may then retrieve the metadata from the location identified in the response.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2002Date of Patent: August 21, 2007Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Erik B. Christensen, Henrik Frystyk Nielsen, Andrew J. Layman, Gopal Krishna R. Kakivaya
