  • Patent number: 11327814
    Abstract: The illustrative embodiments provide concepts for processing a function call using a solid or ephemeral code, selected using a semaphore relating to an identifying feature of the function call. The concept may include: receiving a function call, wherein the function call comprises an identifying feature; queueing the function call in a queue; selecting, using a semaphore relating to the identifying feature of the function call, a code instance of a plurality of code instances for processing a queued function call, the plurality of code instances comprising: an ephemeral code instance, wherein the ephemeral code instance is adapted to process a single function call before being discarded; and a solid code instance, wherein the solid code instance is adapted to process a function call without being discarded; and processing the queued function call with the selected code instance.

  • Patent number: 11159911
    Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The method computer program products, and systems can include, for instance: examining location data of a client computer device in reference to a geofence, the client computer device being associated to a certain user, the geofence being associated to a certain enterprise venue; in response to a breach of the geofence by the client computer device, initiating a process to obtain user associated data of the certain user; providing, while the client computer device is located within the geofence, one to more output observable by the certain user in dependence on data of the user associated data obtained by the initiated process; and in response to an exiting of the geofence by the client computer device terminating the process to obtain user associated data of the certain user.
