Abstract: Anomalous behavior in a multi-tenant computing environment may be identified by analyzing hardware sensor value data associated with hardware events on a host machine. A privileged virtual machine instance executing on a host machine acquires hardware sensor values and causes the values to be compared to other hardware sensor value data that may be indicative of anomalous behavior; for example, various threshold values, patterns, and/or signatures of hardware counter values generated by analyzing and correlating hardware event counter data. In this manner, potential anomalous behavior on an instance may be determined without having to access customer data or workloads associated with the instance.

Abstract: A hydraulic pump is disclosed which uses a side-discharge valve plate. The present valve plate includes a valve plate body having front and back surfaces with a side defining the peripheral surface therebetween. First and second fluid passages are formed on at least one of said front and back surfaces for respectively defining a fluid inlet for supplying hydraulic fluid to a piston and a fluid outlet for receiving pressurized hydraulic fluid from a piston. At least one fluid access is formed in the side of the valve plate body, connecting with at least one of said fluid passages to define a fluid pathway therewith. The design of the present invention thereby permits a pump design have shorter axial length, permitting a smaller size pump which offers improved space considerations. Also, the present valve plate also has few contact surfaces, thereby reducing leakage and improving pump efficiency.
