  • Publication number: 20230342231
    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices for implementing a proxy between a software's frontend and backend to distribute and collate data. A method may include receiving, by a proxy device, from software executing on a frontend of a client device, a first request for using a first backend device associated with the software; identifying, by the proxy device, based on the first request, a plurality of backend devices associated with the software; generating, by the proxy device, one or more second requests indicative of the first request; sending, by the proxy device, the one or more second requests to the plurality of backend devices; receiving, by the proxy device, from the plurality of backend devices, a plurality of responses based on the first request; generating, by the proxy device, a response including data from the plurality of responses; and sending, by the proxy device, the response to the frontend.

  • Publication number: 20220210016
    Abstract: A server configuration tool is presented for autonomously configuring servers located in a network. The tool may autonomously configure multiple servers in parallel based on individual states of the servers, which may be periodically and simultaneously determined. For example, the tool may determine which action to take to begin or continue configuring the server based on the present state of each server. Server states (and corresponding actions) can be edited through a user interface to alter the server configuration process without code changes. At any one time, multiple servers may be in different states requiring different configuration operations to configure the servers to be ready for use. The present systems and methods can be used to move multiple servers iteratively through different configuration actions based on the individual state of each server and to perform non-conflicting configuration operations for multiple servers in parallel.
