  • Patent number: 9934016
    Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein for automated software release lifecycle management. In particular, a software release management network service is disclosed that provides functionality for allowing a software developer to automate aspects of a software release pipeline. A software release pipeline can have multiple stages, each of which can have multiple actions. The actions can include internal actions that utilize network services internal to a service provider network. The actions can also include external actions that utilize network services that are external to a service provider network. The internal and external actions can perform various release-related functions, such as obtaining source code, building the source code, deploying built program code, and for performing tests. Stage gates and/or action gates can also be defined for conditional execution of the next stage or action in a software release pipeline, respectively. A gate bypass can also be specified to override stage or action gates.

  • Patent number: 8880547
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for generating search results when a search string fails to return results as entered. In a representative example, a failure of a first query generated from a search string to identify at least a predefined threshold number of items from among a plurality of items in a data store is detected in a computing device. A plurality of altered versions of the search string is generated in the computing device. A submission of a plurality of second queries to the data store is implemented, where each of the second queries corresponds to one of the altered versions of the search string. A presentation is generated to be rendered of at least two separate groups of items resulting from corresponding ones of the second queries.

  • Patent number: 8577879
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments providing navigational aids within item search results. A pool of items is generated in a computing resource in response to a search query and a search context. At least one network page is encoded for rendering by a client. The at least one network page includes a ranked list of at least a portion of the items. The ranked list includes a navigational aid when a relevance score associated with the navigational aid meets a threshold. The relevance score is computed relative to respective relevance scores associated with items in the ranked list. The navigational aid has at least a same prominence within the ranked list as an item.
