Abstract: A method includes receiving a dependency chain matrix from each of a plurality of service end points in a multi-cluster system converging the received dependency chain matrices into a converged data matrix, sharing the converged data matrix as a side car module to each of the plurality of service end points, receiving a service request by an external user or service for at least one of the plurality of service end points, validating an authorization for the service request based on the converged data matrix, and generating a label that is appended to the service request and passed downstream to the plurality of service end points.

Abstract: An approach for updating one or more serverless runtime configurations based on predicting usage patterns of a serverless computing cluster is disclosed. The approach includes collecting one or more attributes associated with an application on a serverless computing cluster and a user of the application and analyzing the one or more collected attributes. Furthermore, the approach includes predicting one or more usage patterns based the analyzing and updating one or more serverless runtime configurations based on the one or more usage patterns.

Abstract: At a sidecar portion sharing a container with a first application portion, metadata describing a modification to a communications protocol is received. At the sidecar portion, a communication of the first application portion to a second application outside the container is received. The modifying is performed according to the metadata. The modified communication is transmitted to the second application.

Abstract: A sensor of a vehicle receives an identification of a device coupled to an individual via a wireless communications protocol established between the device and the sensor. A computational device on the vehicle processes the identification to uniquely identify the individual. The computational device controls movements of the vehicle to maintain a computed distance at which the vehicle follows the individual.

Abstract: A configuration map to be transmitted to a container manager within a network is compiled on a client device and transmitted to the container manager managing a cluster of containers within the network. The configuration map is transmitted from the container manager to a validation service endpoint to attempt to validate the compiled configuration map. In response to the transmitting the configuration map from the container manager, a determination is caused to occur at the validation service endpoint whether the configuration map should be validated by the validation service endpoint. The configuration map is received from the validation service endpoint with a new environmental variable, when the validation service endpoint validates the configuration map.

Abstract: A containerized application is executed within a container in a virtualized container environment. The containerized application exposes service and diagnostic interfaces that allow a container manager to interact with and control different code paths that provide different services from the containerized application. Using the exposed service and diagnostic interfaces, responsive to a container crash and prior to bringing the containerized application back online within the virtualized container environment after the container crash, functionality of the different code paths that provide the different services from the containerized application is validated.
