Abstract: A method for migrating virtual machine snapshots to application container platforms is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method includes migrating, from a virtual machine platform to a volume on a container platform, a base disk file associated with a virtual machine. The base disk file has one or more delta disk files associated therewith, where each delta disk file records changes made to the virtual machine after a snapshot was taken. After migrating the base disk file, the method repeatedly performs the following for each delta disk file: takes a snapshot of the volume on the container platform; migrates the delta disk file from the virtual machine platform to the container platform; and writes the delta disk file to the volume. In certain embodiments, the delta disk files are written to the volume in an order in which they were created on the virtual machine.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods and compositions comprising random reverse primers that are useful for the amplification of nucleic acid molecules.

Abstract: A ((((1r,3R,5S,7r)-3,5-dimethyladamantan-1-yl)carbamoyl)oxy)-methyl benzoate injection preparation contains ((((1r,3R,5S,7r)-3,5-dimethyladamantan-1-yl)carbamoyl)oxy)-methyl benzoate, a suspension agent, a stabilizer, an osmotic pressure adjustment agent, a pH regulator and a solvent; and the preparation may be a ready-to-use liquid injection and may also be a lyophilized powder for injection. The preparation has noticeable slow-release effects after injection, so that the drug action time can be prolonged, the frequency of dose can be reduced, the compliance of patients can be enhanced, and bioavailability can be increased. A method for preparing the above-mentioned ((((1r,3R,5S,7r)-3,5-dimethyladamantan-1-yl)carbamoyl)oxy)-methyl benzoate injection preparation is simple, economical and suitable for industrial production.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes obtaining information about a plurality of remote storage systems. Each of the remote storage systems includes a cache. The method further includes generating a routing table based on the information, the routing table indicating potential write data migration paths from a cache of a local storage system to the caches of the remote storage systems. A write data migration plan is generated based on the routing table. The write data migration plan specifies which of the caches of the remote storage systems to migrate at least some write data originally intended to be stored on the cache of the local storage system to. In response to a determination that a first predetermined condition associated with the cache of the local storage system is met, the method includes causing the write data migration plan to be performed.
