Abstract: Pursuant to issuing a confirmation prompt to confirm an intention to perform a data management function in a computing environment, a processor device determines by a decision engine, a complexity strength of the confirmation prompt based upon a complexity algorithm.

Abstract: An intention to perform a data management function in a computing environment is confirmed by issuing a confirmation prompt requiring a user to input at least one character associated with a subject of the data management function prior to performing the data management function.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method for processing large scale unstructured data. The method includes receiving streamed input data from live data sources, deriving emergent patterns in data subsets, identifying a repeating pattern and corresponding data subset within the emergent patterns, reducing the identified data subset and identified pattern to a compressed signature, and storing the streamed input data with the compressed signature and without the identified data subset.

Abstract: This invention relates to a system, method and computer program product for processing large scale unstructured data comprising: a receiver for receiving streamed input data from live data sources; a pattern generator for deriving emergent patterns in data subsets; a pattern identifier for identifying a repeating pattern and corresponding data subset within the emergent patterns; a compressor for reducing the identified data subset and identified pattern to a compressed signature; and a repository for storing the streamed input data with the compressed signature and without the identified data subset wherein the data subset can be rebuilt if necessary using the compressed signature.

Abstract: A method for mirroring virtual machines from a primary host to a secondary host. The method includes tracking changes for each of a plurality of memory pages and processor states for one or more primary host virtual machines. Responsive to an occurrence of a checkpoint, the primary host virtual machines are stopped. A determination is made if each of the memory pages is frequently changed. In response to the memory page being frequently changed, the frequently changed memory page is marked as being writeable and copied to a buffer. In response to the memory page being infrequently changed, the infrequently changed memory page is marked as being read only. The one or more primary host virtual machines are resumed. A copy of the memory pages, the buffer and changes to the processor states are transmitted to the secondary host.
