Abstract: In an example, a container cluster management system includes a first node, a second node and redistribution manager. The first node has an allocated external IP address, and comprises a utilization monitor to provide data relating to a utilization of the first node. The redistribution manager may receive the data relating to the utilization of the first node from the first node and determine whether the utilization of the first node has exceeded a predetermined threshold. Responsive to the utilization exceeding the predetermined threshold, the redistribution manager may reallocate the external IP address from the first node to the second node.

Abstract: A distributed storage system may store data object instances in persistent storage and may store keymap information for those data object instances in a distributed hash table on multiple computing nodes. Each data object instance may include a composite key containing a user key. The keymap information for each data object instance may map the user key to a locator and the locator to the data object instance. A request to store or retrieve keymap information for a data object instance may be routed to a particular computing node based on a consistent hashing scheme in which a hash function is applied to a portion of the composite key of the data object instance. Thus, related entries may be clustered on the same computing nodes. The portion of the key to which the hash function is applied may include a pre-determined number of bits or be identified using a delimiter.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed towards generating a captured font from an image of a target font. Character glyphs of the target font can be detected from the image. A character glyph can be selected from the detected character glyphs. A character mask can be generated for the selected character glyph. The character mask can be used to identify a similar font. A character from the similar font corresponding to the selected character glyph can be transformed to match the character mask. This transformed corresponding character can be presented and used to generate a captured font. In addition, a texture from the image can be applied to the captured font based on the transformed corresponding character.

Abstract: In implementations of application-based font previewing, a font preview system of a computing device receives a font file corresponding to a font of a font repository via a network. The font preview system encrypts font tables of the font file and the font preview system writes the encrypted font tables to a font disk cache of the computing device. The font preview system writes metadata describing the font tables to a font memory cache of the computing device. In response to receiving a request to preview the font from an application of the computing device, the font preview system uses the metadata to identify and decrypt a particular font table of the encrypted font tables, and the application renders glyphs of the font in a user interface using the decrypted particular font table.

Abstract: Security policies are made dependent on location of a device and the location of a device is determined and the appropriate security policy applied without providing the device's location to a server. A device determine its location and identifies a security policy identifier mapped to a zone including the location. The device requests the security policy corresponding to the identifier from a server and implements it. The device may also store a database of the security policies and implement them according to its location. Devices registered for a user evaluate whether locations detected for the devices correspond to impossible travel by the user. Objects encoding geolocation data of a device may be encrypted with a private key of the device and the public key of another to prevent access by an intermediary server.
