Abstract: Processes and systems are disclosed for partitioning a number of producer systems among a number of leasing agents. A leasing agent can identify a set of available producer systems within an environment and can partition the producer systems among each of the number of leasing agents. The leasing agent can then inform the other leasing agents of the producer systems assigned to each of the leasing agents. As the number of available producer systems change, the partitioning process can be repeated to rebalance the assignment of producer systems among the leasing agents.

Abstract: Processes and systems are disclosed for leasing a consumer system access to a producer system. The consumer system can communicate with a set of leasing agents to obtain the identity of a number of producer systems capable of providing the consumer system with access to a service. Each leasing agent may provide the consumer system with access to a producer system for a period of time. If the consumer system requires further access to a particular producer system, the consumer system can request renewal of the lease from the leasing agent that provided the initial lease of the producer system to the consumer system.

Abstract: An analytics module may be embedded into an application developed, published, or used by an entity in addition to the owner of the data under analysis. An access token may be submitted by the analytics module to a provider of hosted services. The access token may correspond to an n-dimensional cube containing data at a level of granularity permitted to the application. The access token may incorporate additional policies controlling access to the corresponding n-dimensional cube.

Abstract: An online analytical processing system may comprise an n-dimensional cube partitioned into slices, in which each slice may represent data points at the intersections of fixed and variable dimensions. Computation of data points within a slice may be deferred. A dependency graph may be initially constructed, in which the dependency graph is utilized in a subsequent computation. Calculation of data points may be prioritized based on information indicative of a chance that the data points will be accessed.

Abstract: An online analytical processing system may comprise an n-dimensional cube structured using slice-based partitioning in which each slice comprises data points corresponding to a set of dimension values fixed across the slice and a set of dimension values allowed to vary. Slices may be partitioned and replicated across computing nodes. Views of the n-dimensional cube may be partially materialized by determining dependencies between slices. A central data dictionary may maintain information about slices and slice dependencies. Dimensions may be added by adding a new slice without requiring immediate recomputation of existing data points.

Abstract: An online analytical processing system may comprise an n-dimensional cube structured using slice-based partitioning in which each slice comprises one or more hierarchies of data points. A region of a hierarchy may be classified according to computational demands associated with the region. A scaling or replication mechanism may be applied to the region based on the computational demands associated with that region.

Abstract: The disclosure describes embodiments of a distributed caching system that are configured to store handshake data between client devices and servers, enabling handshake transaction to be resumed in case of interruption. Client devices can resume the handshake transaction even if assigned to new servers as the new servers can obtain the handshake data identifiers from the distributed caching system.

Abstract: The disclosure describes embodiments of a distributed caching system that are configured to store session state identifiers in a networked cache, enabling dynamic allocation of requests to servers. Client devices can resume secure sessions even if assigned to new servers as the new servers can obtain the session state identifiers from the distributed caching system. In at least some cases, the client device can be authenticated without the server having to perform a full authentication, thereby reducing the workload of the server and decreasing latency as the server can respond faster.

Abstract: Systems and methods aggregate data and use caching techniques. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method aggregates data. A server receives a request for data that includes one or more identifiers. Based on at least one of the one or more identifiers, at least one template defining a view of the data is retrieved. One or more modules are identified based on the at least one template and one or more services are invoked to obtain the one or more modules. The one or more modules are received and processing by applying one or more business logic rules. At least a portion of the one or more processed modules are stored in a data store. The view of the data is generated based on the processed one or more modules and a response is transmitted to a client that includes the view of the data.

Abstract: Processes and systems are disclosed for selecting a producer system from a number of producer systems to lease to a consumer system. A leasing agent, in response to a request from the consumer system for access to a service at a producer system, can identify a producer system to lease to the lease requestor based, at least in part, on a selection weight associated with each producer system that the leasing agent is assigned. The selection weights can be modified based on status information associated with each of the producer systems. This status information may be obtain from the producer systems and/or from a consumer system that has previously accessed the producer system. The consumer system may provide the status information to the leasing agent as part of the consumer system's lease request.
