Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for auto-tuning permissions using a learning mode are disclosed. A plurality of access requests to a plurality of services and resources by an application are determined during execution of the application in a learning mode in a pre-production environment. The plurality of services and resources are hosted in a multi-tenant provider network. A subset of the services and resources that were used by the application during the learning mode are determined. An access control policy is generated that permits access to the subset of the services and resources used by the application during the learning mode. The access control policy is attached to a role associated with the application to permit access to the subset of the services and resources in a production environment.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for processing shipment status events. An instance of a first event is obtained from a carrier. The instance of the first event is associated with a shipment in transit with the carrier, and the first event is associated with a set of first events used by the carrier to describe shipment status. The instance of the first event is mapped to an instance of a second event. The second event is associated with a set of second events, each describing a shipment status and being normalized with respect to sets of first events associated with multiple carriers. At least one action based at least in part on the instance of the second event is implemented.

Abstract: The present invention provides an integrated method, implemented over a wide area network or wireless network, comprising a server side and a client side, for user-directed acquisition of reference information, such as dictionary definitions (“look-ups”) or language translation, relating to user-selected messages or user-selected text of World Wide Web (Web?) site pages. The method steps, for Web use, are integrated into either a server-side web site or into a client-side system. In particular embodiments, reference information relating to user-selected Web page includes high quality multi-lingual translations, explanations, illustration and/or consolidated automatic multi-dictionary definitions, wherein such information is displayed to the user in text, voice, image or multi-media formats. The present invention also provides an apparatus for user-directed acquisition of information relating to user-selected Web page text.
