  • Patent number: 12235889
    Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to providing device messages in image compilations based on user content. A computer-implemented method includes determining that a playback mode is entered on a device to display one or more image compilations, each image compilation including images for successive display. Message criteria are obtained for device messages, each device message indicating a device function associated with images of the image compilations or of a user image library. A device message is selected based on associated message criteria. An image is identified in the user image library, the image being in the image compilations, depicts a type of image feature in the image compilations, and/or has characteristic(s) modifiable by the device function. The device message is displayed during image compilation playback and includes the identified image and a message control option. In response to user selection of the message control option, the device function is initiated.

  • Patent number: 12223534
    Abstract: The systems and methods disclosed herein can increase the speed and ease with which a user can discover compatible replacement parts for a specified model of a product by automatically determining when the user is interested in replacement parts. A replacement part system can conclude that a user is looking for replacement parts based on the user's search queries, the user's browsing behavior, or the user's prior purchases. By automatically deducing an intention to purchase a replacement part, the replacement part system can make it easier for a user to locate suitable replacement parts. In addition, the replacement part system can be configured to tailor listing set of replacement parts search results it provides to a user. The set of search results can be tailored based on a number of criteria to increase the speed with which the user finds a compatible replacement part.

  • Patent number: 12210899
    Abstract: Data payloads from an external data storage system are processed in an observability pipeline system. In some aspects, the observability pipeline system defines a leader role and worker roles. The leader role generates a data discovery task based on configuration information for a data collection task. A worker role executes the data discovery task, which includes communicating with an external data storage system to identify a data payload that is stored on the external data storage system and contains event data that meet event filter criteria. The leader role generates data collection tasks based on the data payload. Worker roles execute the data collection tasks. Executing a data collection task includes: communicating with the external data storage system to obtain a subset of filtered event data from the data payload; and streaming the subset of filtered event data to an observability pipeline process.
