  • Publication number: 20240137267
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for asset utilization and trigger-based automation. A network management system may receive a receive a network management configuration that identifies a configuration of a set of assets to be allocated to a service. The network management system may generate an asset utilization dataset including a set of utilization values associated with the set of assets generated over a time. The asset utilization data set may be used to train a machine-learning model configured to generated predictions corresponding to a future utilization associated with the set of assets. The network management system may then execute the machine-learning model predict utilization of a first asset. Upon determining that the predicted utilization is greater than a threshold, the network management system may execute an action associated with the set of assets.

  • Publication number: 20240028596
    Abstract: A system uses a hybrid key-value storage engine that uses log-structured merge tree and a segmented log-structured object store. The system performs garbage collection of stale document versions avoiding index lookup during log segment compaction. The system separates index and document data to minimize write amplification. The system maintains a delete list using a log-structured merge-tree to store stale document sequence numbers and corresponding sizes per log segment. For each log segment from the plurality of log segments, the system determines a measure of fragmentation of the log segment based on sizes of deleted documents of the log segment from the second log-structured merge-tree. If the fragmentation exceeds a threshold, the system initiates a compaction operation for the log segment.
