Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are related to systems and methods for updating an operating system image. A system includes a processor and a system memory. A customization module receives end user defined customization parameters for an updatable base operating system image. The customization module further translates the received customization parameters into image state transition steps. The state transition steps cause the implementation of the customization parameters when applied to the updatable base operating system image. A generation module generates the updatable base operating system image by applying some of the image state transition steps. An update module updates the generated updatable base operating system image without the need for further end user input by applying some of the state transition steps to generate an updated operating system image.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium, is described that enables a registry recovery service to retrieve zone files from a target registry, archive the zone files, publish the zone files to a managed DNS server, reconcile ownership of the zone files, and publish the zone files to a provisioning DNS server. The registry recovery service may also implement a WHOIS server for the zone and ownership information and may also implement zone specific features particular to the target registry's TLD. The registry recovery service may also enable DNSSEC extensions on the recovered registry DNS services.

Abstract: Techniques for monitoring zone file changes are presented. The techniques may include obtaining at least one zone change request and parsing the at least one zone change request to obtain at least one change request unit. The techniques may include obtaining a last published zone file, obtaining a new zone file, and comparing the last published zone file to the new zone file to obtain at least one difference object. The techniques may include matching the at least one difference object to the at least one change request unit to identify at least one unmatched difference object. The techniques may include providing a human readable report comprising an indication of the at least one unmatched difference object.
