Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing computing services for an application comprising a plurality of virtual computing components executing on one or more host computing devices, wherein a service virtual computing component is to perform application functionality, and wherein a system computing component is to perform system functionality including management of the application virtual computing component; determining the service virtual computing component is to execute using a first access credential to provide a first computing service to the application virtual computing component, and the service virtual computing component is to execute using a second access credential to provide a second computing service to the system computing component, wherein the first access credential is assigned a different set of computing resource access permissions than the second access credential.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for an on-demand code execution service comprising a set of computing devices for on-demand execution of function code while continuing to facilitate executing long-running background processes. A subset of resources may be initialized based, at least in part, on the application configuration data including at least a request-response process, a background process, and a lesser set of computing resources for the background process. After the execution of the background process has begun, a first request may be received. The on-demand code execution service may increase computing resources to a larger set of computing resources to generate a first response to the first request. The first response may then be provided to an external set of computing resources. After determining that the queue contains no additional requests, the on-demand code execution service may decrease the level of computing resources to the lesser set of computing resources.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing provision of network-stored data sets among instances of function code executing in an on-demand manner. Provision of the data sets may be managed such that the data sets are available efficiently and are able to be accessed within function invocations in a manner that is similar or identical to accessing locally-stored data sets. Moreover, the data sets may, when desired, be made available persistently across function invocations.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing provision of—and access to—data sets among instances of function code executing in an on-demand manner. An API is provided by which functions can store data sets to be shared with other functions, and by which functions can access data sets shared by other functions.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for facilitating network traffic between serverless function executions and isolated cloud resources within virtualized network environments. Virtualized network environments, by default, may be isolated such that external traffic is not permitted to enter the environment. Permissions for traffic that may enter the environment are often set on the basis of network addresses. In the context of serverless functions, such permissions may be difficult to establish because executions of serverless functions can occur on a dynamically selected environment without a fixed network address. The present disclosure provides for creation of user-defined connectors that facilitate routing of network traffic between executions of serverless functions and user virtualized network environments without requiring that routing occur on the bases of network addresses.

Abstract: In some implementations, a method of facilitating pointing of a mobile device at a satellite of a satellite constellation for satellite-based data communication, may comprise obtaining, at a first time point, historical orbital data indicative of orbital movement of a plurality of satellites of a satellite constellation over a period of time. The method may also comprise assigning a reference orbital dataset of the plurality orbital datasets determined at a reference time point to corresponding control boxes of a reference grid covering the satellite constellation, wherein each control box of the reference grid corresponds to a satellite of the satellite constellation. The method may also comprise mapping the plurality orbital datasets to the reference grid for an orbital model based on the assignment of the reference orbital dataset.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for executing tightly coupled parallel applications on a serverless computing system. A serverless computing system executes user-submitted code in sandboxed environments such as virtual machines or containers. To support execution of parallel applications that require data transfer between instances of the application, the serverless computing system implements an ephemeral mesh network that allows instances of the parallel application to communicate with each other while executing in their respective sandboxes. In some embodiments, a controller or parent application may also connect to the ephemeral mesh network to coordinate execution of the parallel applications. In other embodiments, the parent application may be external to the serverless computing system.

Abstract: This disclosure covers systems and methods that sharpen the appearance of a digital illustration while moving the digital illustration. In certain embodiments, upon receiving a command to move a digital illustration, the disclosed systems and methods move the digital illustration (and its constituent line segments) to positions that both sharpen the appearance of the digital illustration and respond to the command. To facilitate sharpening the appearance of a digital illustration as part of a seemingly continuous movement, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods move a blurry digital illustration to a position that sharpens the appearance of blurry axial-line segments by translating the digital illustration according to a translation vector and a command to move the digital illustration.
