Abstract: A connection-aggregation proxy service disclosed in various embodiments receives connection requests from a plurality of local initiating services, where the connection requests are not targeted at the connection-aggregation proxy service. The connection-aggregation proxy service establishes connections with the local initiating services, receives packets over those connections, and transmits the packets across the same connection when the packets are for the same external target. A local connection-aggregation proxy service in one example executes on the same physical computing device as the local initiating services. A gateway connection-aggregation proxy service in another example resides at a network edge between the local initiating services and the external target that the network local initiating services are requesting.

Abstract: Features are disclosed for enabling servers to initiate the opening of connections with clients, initiate transfers of data to clients, and provide clients with hints regarding which content retrieval, connection establishment, and other network operations will likely improve user-perceived performance on the client. A token may be transmitted from a client to a server, and the server may utilize the token to initiate a network connection with the client and send data to the client. The token may also be passed to a third party for similar use. Hints may be provided to the client, indicating actions that the client may perform in order to improve content processing efficiency and enhance a user experience with the content. The disclosed features may, for example, be incorporated into web browser and server software.

Abstract: Features are described for detecting and disabling potentially harmful items that are embedded within or referenced by network resources such as web pages. A network node, remote from a user's computing device, can compare content portions to a repository of content portions which are known to be harmful, or to a blacklist of resources which are known to be harmful. The network node can take preventative actions based on the nature of the threat and the nature of the resource. For example, the network node can modify or remove portions of source code, replace interactive content with static images, and/or disable objects. Other features include providing users with a mechanism to override the preventative measures and receive the original unprocessed content. The network node can monitor the user overrides and fine tune its detection of harmful content.

Abstract: Applications executing on mobile client devices may access remote resources via network connections. Operational capabilities and financial costs of these connections may differ. Developers, network administrators, and other parties may wish to moderate usage of various available conditions to conform to business rules. Connectivity information including one or more network grants are integrated into an application received from a developer at ingestion by an application management server, which accesses those business rules. The client devices may coordinate with a proxy server to provide additional controls. Networking public interfaces provide the developer with a simplified pathway for development of applications which use network connections, particularly on mobile devices.

Abstract: A content management system couples DRM protection of content items with a digital content store to allow content items to be transferred or resold from one user to another. The content management system can generate application-specific digital stores that allow end users to conduct transactions with other users to buy, sell, and/or trade content items associated with the application. In response to a sale or trade of a content item between two users, DRM protections associated with the content item can allow the content item to be removed from one user computing device and provided to another user computing device, while maintaining the same number of outstanding active copies of the content item before and after the transaction.

Abstract: Features are disclosed for modifying identifying data including, but not limited to, demographic information, user identifiers, and device identifiers, according to user-definable preferences prior to transmitting content requests to content servers. The information may be modified to protect a user's privacy. In addition, the modified information may allow the content provider to serve a customized or targeted version of content that is more relevant to the user than a version that may otherwise be generated without the aid of identifying data. Users may elect to share some, all, or none of their identifying data with content providers, or users may elect to generalize their specific identifying data. Additional features include providing generalized or customized identifying data to cooperating content providers. Custom headers and other data fields may be provided to content providers, and content providers may choose to use information in the custom data fields or ignore it.

Abstract: Features are disclosed for caching network resources. A system determines whether a resource which does not contain an indication in its associated header that it is cacheable may nevertheless be cached. The determination may be based on observations of a number of requests for the resource over time and from a number of different requesting clients. In response to determining that the resource is cacheable, the system may cache the resource, and in some cases modify the cache control header of resource to facilitate caching. The system may insert fields into the header or otherwise modify the header so that the resource may be cached at a network computing provider, at a requesting client device, or at some other shared or private cache.

Abstract: A content management system may receive, purchase or otherwise obtain licenses from content owners or licensors and provide such content licenses to application developers or other content creators. The content management system can act as a central broker for licensing content rights to developers. The application developers can then generate content items based on the obtained licenses and provide or sell those content items to users of their applications. For instance, the developer may license an automobile design, brand name or performance data from an automobile manufacturer and create an automobile model for a racing game application.
