Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for mobile location based sales lead identification. Sales lead information may be provided based on a reference location, such as a sales resource real time location. Additional location information, demand information, competitive information, activity history, follow-up tasks, sales resource ownership information and past promotions relating to a particular sales lead may be additionally provided. The mobile location based sales lead information may allow a sales resource to efficiently manage their time during and in between sales visits, and prepare effective sales pitches to sales leads.

Abstract: A method of operating a data storage system is provided. The method includes establishing a user region on a non-volatile storage media of the data storage system configured to store user data, and establishing a recovery region on the non-volatile storage media of the data storage system configured to store recovery information pertaining to at least the user region. The method also includes updating the recovery information in the recovery region responsive to at least changes to the user region, and responsive to at least a power interruption of the data storage system, rebuilding at least a portion of the user region using the recovery information retrieved from the recovery region.

Abstract: A computing device automatically selects hyperparameter values based on objective criteria to train a predictive model. Each session of a plurality of sessions executes training and scoring of a model type using an input dataset in parallel with other sessions of the plurality of sessions. Unique hyperparameter configurations are determined using a search method and assigned to each session. For each session of the plurality of sessions, training of a model of the model type is requested using a training dataset and the assigned hyperparameter configuration, scoring of the trained model using a validation dataset and the assigned hyperparameter configuration is requested to compute an objective function value, and the received objective function value and the assigned hyperparameter configuration are stored. A best hyperparameter configuration is identified based on an extreme value of the stored objective function values.

Abstract: A storage controller is provided. The storage controller includes a host interface, a media interface, and a processing system coupled with the host interface and the media interface. The processing system is configured to configured to maintain a translation table that relates logical addressing to physical blocks of the one or more storage media using at least an extents-based scheme in the translation table to relate the logical addressing to the physical blocks, wherein the extents-based scheme comprises a starting location combined with span length of a sequential portion of data stored on the one or more storage media, and the processing system also configured to handle storage operations of the storage drive in accordance with the translation table.

Abstract: A storage system is provided. The storage system includes a workload manager with visibility to host data operations for a storage drive. The workload manager is configured to determine an operation schedule comprising the host data operations and data migration operations for storage media of the storage drive, and instruct a storage media manager to perform the data migration operations and the host data operations in accordance with the operation schedule. The storage system also includes a storage media manager configured to receive instructions from the workload manager in accordance with the operation schedule, and responsively perform the data migration operations and the host data operations.
