Abstract: Rapid launch of secure executables in a virtualized environment includes using a persisted security cache in a virtualized component (VC), such as a virtual machine. The VC generates a cache integrity value (IV), such as a hash value, for the security cache and sends it to a remote validator, which returns an indication of security cache validity or invalidity. Upon receiving a request to execute applications, the VC analyzes whether the applications have been determined to be safe to execute and have not been altered. The VC retrieves application IVs from the security cache, rather than hashing each of the applications, thereby saving compute time, and sends the application IVs to a remote validator, which returns an indication of application validity or invalidity.

Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for determining image compression optimums are provided. An image may be processed with a machine learning model that has been trained to identify object types in digital images. A first object and a first object type of the first object may be identified in the image. A first compressed version of the image may be generated, wherein the first compressed version has a first storage size. The first object and the first object type of the first object may be identified in the first compressed version of the image. A second compressed version of the image may be generated based on the identification of the first object and the first object type in the first compressed version of the image. The second compressed version may have a smaller storage size than the first storage size.

The existing methods are incomplete, expensive, time-consuming, and error-prone. A method and system for management of lifecycle of contracts have been provided. The system leverages a combination of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques appropriate for different micro services in contract lifecycle management. The deep learning and natural language processing (NLP) techniques help in understanding of clauses of the contract, risk levels involved in the contract. The system is configured to automatically generate contracts for a customer based on the other criteria of the customer. The system also identifies alternate options to risky clauses and mandatory clauses to be included.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, medium, and system for upgrade of telco node cluster running cloud-native network functions are disclosed. In one computer-implemented method, a worker node group that includes a plurality of worker nodes is determined in a container orchestration platform. A first node to upgrade is determined within the worker node group. All pods in the first node are deactivated by a high availability as a service (HAaaS) module. Standby pods in a second node are activated by the HAaaS module and as active pods. All network traffic associated with all the pods in the first node is migrated to the active pods. The first node is deleted from the worker node group. Hardware resources associated with running the first node are released. A third node is generated as a new worker node in the worker node group and uses the released hardware resources.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method that identifies a first number of requests received at a first application. Based on the first number of requests received at the first application, the method determines that a second application that processes requests after processing by the first application requires additional resources to handle a second number of requests that will be received at the second application. The method increases the amount of resources available to the second application prior to the second application receiving the second number of requests.
