Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for automated latency-aware purging of database records. A server determines a synchronization latency between a storage database and an online transaction processing (OLTP) database. When the synchronization latency is below a predetermined threshold, the server identifies a first database object in the OLTP database and selects database records to be purged from the first database object based upon a data purge instruction set. The server identifies a second database object in the storage database that corresponds to the first database object and selects database records in the second database object based upon the data purge instruction set. The server purges the database records from the first database object in the OLTP database when a characteristic of the database records to be purged from the first database object matches a characteristic of the database records selected in the second database object.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing an automated quality assurance framework for infrastructure as code (“IaC”) implementations are provided. Pull requests with proposed change to existing IaC source code (“changed code”) are received from user devices, each associated with either a service enablement team member or an applications development team member. Team specific versions of the quality assurance framework are automatically triggered for the changed code which require successful passage through multiple modules in a successive manner before automatically being merged into the existing IaC source code.

Abstract: A device comprises a digital ramp generator, an oscillator, a power amplifier, a low-noise amplifier (LNA), a mixer, and an intermediate frequency amplifier (IFA). The oscillator generates a chirp signal based on an output from the digital ramp generator. The power amplifier receives the chirp signal and outputs an amplified chirp signal to a transmitter antenna. The LNA receives a reflected chirp signal from a receiver antenna. The mixer receives output of the LNA and combines it with the chirp signal from the oscillator. The IFA receives the mixer output signal and includes a configurable high-pass filter, which has a first cutoff frequency during a first portion of the chirp signal and a second cutoff frequency during a second portion of the chirp signal. In some implementations, the first cutoff frequency is chosen based on a frequency of a blocker signal introduced by couplings between the transmitter and receiver antennas.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for facilitating network traffic between serverless function executions and isolated cloud resources within virtualized network environments. Virtualized network environments, by default, may be isolated such that external traffic is not permitted to enter the environment. Permissions for traffic that may enter the environment are often set on the basis of network addresses. In the context of serverless functions, such permissions may be difficult to establish because executions of serverless functions can occur on a dynamically selected environment without a fixed network address. The present disclosure provides for creation of user-defined connectors that facilitate routing of network traffic between executions of serverless functions and user virtualized network environments without requiring that routing occur on the bases of network addresses.
