Abstract: A security mechanism, e.g., a computing system, security server, can effectively serve as a centralized security mechanism, e.g., a computing system, security server, for an ecosystem that can include diverse clients and servers. The security mechanism can obtain redirected requests for services, authenticate credentials of a client and generate a (client-side) token that can be provided by the client to the server for verification of the identity of the client. The security mechanism can also obtain a token from a server that can be similar to a (client-side) token provided to a client and then generate a (server-side) token that can be provided to a server. The server-side token can include authorization information that allows access to one or more services of one or more other servers.

Abstract: A failure rate model modeling a failure rate of a training functionality deployment in a training set of functionality deployments is constructed. The failure rate model is configured to receive functionality deployment data and output a corresponding failure rate prediction. Using the failure rate model, a set of functionality deployment failure rates is predicted, a functionality deployment failure rate in the set of functionality deployment failure rates corresponding to an upcoming functionality deployment. Using the set of functionality deployment failure rates, a deployment sequence of the set of upcoming functionality deployments is constructed to minimize a predicted overall failure rate of the set of upcoming functionality deployments. The deployment of each functionality deployment in the set of upcoming functionality deployments is caused, the deployment comprising activating the upcoming functionality program code according to the deployment sequence.
