Abstract: A user experience repository may contain base layouts and variant metadata for applications of an enterprise. An application design platform may receive, from a designer, an indication of a selected base layout for a selected application and interact with the designer to create a user experience variant (e.g., a page layout). The designer may then define an assignment rule for the user experience variant, the assignment rule including custom logic and multiple user parameters (e.g., a user role, country, language, etc.), and the system may store information about the user experience variant and assignment rule. An enterprise application service platform may determine that a user is accessing the selected application and evaluate the custom logic of the assignment rule based on user parameters of the user accessing the selected application. In accordance with the evaluation, the system may arrange to provide the appropriate user experience variant to the user.

Abstract: A site server agent monitors a site server for an event associated with an update process that spans multiple resources associated with multiple systems. The agent hands the monitoring off to a remote connected systems manager when a state associated with the event does not change to an expected value within a configured period of time or based on a configured condition. Connected systems manager continues to monitor the state and elevates the event to a level two incident after a second configured period of time or based on a second configured condition. When the state has still not changed after a third configured period of time or based on a third configured condition, a level one incident is generated in an incident management system associated with the site for support staff to immediately investigate the update process and resources of the systems.

Abstract: A deep-learning based method evaluates similarities of entities in decentralized identity graphs. One or more processors represent a first identity profile as a first identity graph and a second identity profile as a second identity graph. The processor(s) compare the first identity graph to the second identity graph, which are decentralized identity graphs from different identity networks, in order to determine a similarity score between the first identity profile and the second identity profile. The processor(s) then implement a security action based on the similarity score.

Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for managing workloads in compute clusters comprising compute nodes by managing the workloads at the resource level of the compute clusters. For example, virtual service contexts (VSCs) may be defined where the VSCs represent service classes. Policies may be defined with respect to each service class. These service classes are dynamically constructed based on business needs. Hence there is natural requirement for a user to construct and rebalance the compute resources for these service classes dynamically. The policies may be related to resources of the compute clusters for executing workload units in the compute clusters. Resources of the compute clusters may be allocated to each service class. Each workload unit may be assigned to a one of the service classes based on the service context or type of workload unit. The workload units may then be executed by the compute clusters using the resources in accordance with the policies.

Abstract: The disclosure describes systems and techniques for assessing risk of an open Wi-Fi network, at a consumer's request, before the consumer performs a transaction. The system receives a Wi-Fi network risk assessment request associated with a Wi-Fi network connection of a mobile device. Upon receiving the request, the system retrieves connection-related data from the mobile device. The connection-related data is associated with the Wi-Fi network connection. The system performs a Wi-Fi risk assessment of the Wi-Fi network connection. The system transmits a result of the risk assessment to the mobile device for presentation on the mobile device. The system also transmits the result of the risk assessment to an issuer server. The issuer server is associated with a payment account of the consumer. Moreover, the system transmits a step-up authentication alert to the issuer server.
