Abstract: A data storage device having a flash translation layer configured to handle file-system defragmentation in a manner that avoids, reduces, and/or optimizes physical data movement in flash memory. In an example embodiment, the memory controller maintains in a volatile memory thereof a lookaside table that supplants pertinent portions of the logical-to-physical table. Entries of the lookaside table are configured to track source and destination addresses of the host defragmentation requests and are logically linked to the corresponding entries of the logical-to-physical table such that end-to-end data protection including the use of logical-address tags to the user data can be supported by logical means and without physical data rearrangement in the flash memory. In some embodiments, physical data rearrangement corresponding to the file-system defragmentation is performed in the flash memory in response to certain trigger events, which can improve the input/output performance of the data-storage device.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for synchronizing database system metadata between primary and standby persistent storage systems using an object store. A first persistent storage system enabled to store first configuration metadata describing the configuration of the first persistent storage system. A first broker process of the first persistent storage system detects receipt, at an object store endpoint, of a new version of an object message sent by a second broker process of a second persistent storage system. The object message specifies a particular value of a configuration attribute of second configuration metadata from the second persistent storage system. In response to detecting receipt of the new version of the object message, the first broker process reads the particular value of the configuration attribute in the object message. The first broker process sets the configuration attribute in the first configuration metadata to the particular value.

Abstract: Fifth generation and beyond (5G+) systems are expected to adopt new network architectures, services, and deployment schemes for compatibility with the latest technologies and end user's needs. With increase in user equipment (UE), also come variety of advanced applications and use-cases, wherein each application type has its own KPI requirements. Existing resource allocation schemes in cellular networks are not able to handle such dynamic requirements due to which network slice can lead to unwanted mismanagement of resources. Present application provides systems and methods for application-aware dynamic slicing in radio access network (RAN), wherein RAN slicing is proactively managed by learning historical slice demands and consumptions. Once slices are created, the system allocates resources to user equipment by following optimal inter-slice and intra-slice mechanisms based on application type(s), traffic demand(s) and wireless characteristics of UE.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detection of domain generated algorithms (DGA) and their command and control (C&C) servers are disclosed. In one embodiment, such an approach includes examining DNS queries for DNS resolution failures, and monitoring certain set of parameters such as number of levels, length of domain name, lexical complexity, and the like for each failed domain. These parameters may then be compared against certain thresholds to determine if the domain name is likely to be part of a DGA malware. Domain names identified as being part of a DGA malware may then be grouped together. Once a DGA domain name has been identified, activity from that domain name can be monitored to detect successful resolutions from the same source to see if any of the successful domain resolutions match these parameters. If they match specific thresholds, then the domain is determined to be a C&C server of the DGA malware and may be identified as such.
