Abstract: A data center communicates with a cloud-based backup system. Client-server roles are established such that a client role is assigned to the data center and a server role is assigned to the cloud-based backup system. On an ongoing basis, backup operations are performed. In the event of disaster or other cause of an outage of the data center, a failover protocol might be invoked such that the cloud-based backup system takes on additional processing operations beyond the aforementioned backup operations. After remediation, the data center issues a data restoration message to the cloud-based backup system. The remediated data center initiates a failback protocol that reverses the client-server roles of the data center and the cloud-based backup system such that the server role is assigned to the data center and the client role is assigned to the cloud-based backup system. After performing system restoration operations, the roles may be reversed again.

Abstract: An aspect of the present disclosure facilitates resolving tickets in a multi-tenant environment. In one embodiment, a server receives a ticket for a tenant from a ticketing system and then determines a gross job representing a class of jobs suitable for resolution of the received ticket. The server then identifies a set of values for a set of system parameters characterizing the computing resources serving the tenant. The server selects a target job based on the combination of the determined gross job and the set of values for the set of system parameters. The selected target job is then executed to cause resolution of the ticket for the tenant. According to another aspect, the server performs the above noted actions automatically without manual intervention, in response to adding of the ticket into the ticketing system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for providing a failover of storage for media content, including media content used for broadcasting in cinema. One embodiment of the invention stores copies of digital cinema packages (“DCPs”) to both a central storage facility as well as a local storage facility. When a server module reading DCPs in central storage module encounters abnormalities, it switches reading operations to the local storage module, at the same frame location from which interruption occurred. The present invention provides a multi-layered storage system for cinema broadcasting of a movie to decrease likelihood of interruptions during a broadcast that may be caused by failure of the central storage facility.

Abstract: Examples provide a context-specific unbiased workforce allocation system. A workforce management component analyzes workforce data, associated workforce assets and an individual environment to generate a workforce assets allocation. Individual unique randomized identifiers (UR-IDs) are generated for each workforce asset in the plurality of workforce assets associated with the individual environment on a per allocation basis. A first UR-ID is associated with an individual workforce asset for a first allocation and a second UR-ID is associated with the individual workforce asset for the second allocation to maintain anonymity of workforce assets across allocations. The generated UR-IDs and corresponding allocation data are stored in an anonymized workforce data repository. A parity score is generated for each allocation of workforce assets. The parity score identifies anomalies in the allocations and provides feedback used to update the workforce asset allocations to minimize or eliminate the anomalies.
