Publication number: 20250005627Abstract: In general, embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods and computer readable media for a configurable test environment within which a relevance service can be invoked to execute one or a combination of test scenarios, each test scenario respectively being configured to exercise one or a combination of features of the relevance service. In embodiments, a test scenario may be configured to use test data that can be simulated and/or be derived from one or a combination of user models and promotion models, and/or be based on aggregated data that has been collected from previous production runs of the relevance service. In embodiments, each test scenario is described as a set of test configuration data. In some embodiments, the test configuration data are represented in a data interchange format that is both human and machine-readable, e.g., JavaScript Object Notation (JSON).Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2024Publication date: January 2, 2025Inventors: Kannan Nitin SHARMA, Srinivasa VEDANARAYANAN, Vidhyaa MURALIDHARAN

Patent number: 12079841Abstract: In general, embodiments of the present disclosure provide for a configurable relevance service platform via a relevance test driver. In embodiments, test configuration data associated with at least one test scenario for a relevance service is received via at least one relevance test driver that interfaces with a relevance test service. Additionally, one or more promotions relevant to a user identifier are determined based at least in part on the test configuration data, and output data associated with the one or more promotions is transmitted to the relevance test service.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2022Date of Patent: September 3, 2024Assignee: Bytedance Inc.Inventors: Kannan Nitin Sharma, Srinivasa Vedanarayanan, Vidhyaa Muralidharan

Patent number: 11704702Abstract: Systems and related methods providing for dynamic message creation are discussed herein. Circuitry may be configured receive generic configuration data that references work chunks for message generation and time data indicating a message send time. The work chunks may include references to message data, but not the actual message data. Based on the time data, the work chunks may be placed in a message queue. Circuitry may also be configured to retrieve a work chunk from the message queue and to generate one or more messages based on the retrieved work chunk. The references to message data in the work chunk may be used to retrieve the message data at the time of message generation.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2021Date of Patent: July 18, 2023Assignee: GROUPON, INC.Inventors: Geetha Kakarlapudi, Kannan Nitin Sharma, Mohit Gupta, Avik Sinharoy, Christopher S.
