One or more embodiments of the invention includes identifying a hardware resource requirement in a composition request for a composed information handling system, wherein the hardware resource requirement specifies a hardware resource with data transformation functionality (DTF), identifying a hardware resource that does not have the DTF, connecting the hardware resource to a DTF container, wherein the DTF container implements the DTF and emulates the hardware resource with DTF, and initiating composition of the composed information handling system using the DTF container, wherein the DTF container satisfies the hardware resource requirement.

Abstract: A system and method of performing automated reconciliation of devices and features in telecom expense management systems prior to running programs to optimize expense relative to usage or procuring new lines. The reconciliation accessing and carrier systems and devices and using enterprise configurable rules and live data from end point management systems. The system ensures accurate and up to date data is available for processing by downstream robotic process automation systems that perform the procurement/modification of plans and devices.

Abstract: A method and system for preemptive caching across content delivery networks. Specifically, the disclosed method and system entail proactively seeding (or deploying) resources to edge nodes of a content delivery network based on prospective information sources such as, for example, travel itineraries, map route plans, calendar appointments, etc. Resource delivery deadlines and destinations may be derived from these prospective information sources in order to preemptively direct and cache resources near these resource delivery destinations (i.e., geo-locations) prior to or by the expected times (i.e., future point-in-times) during which a resource requestor and/or consumer is anticipated to be positioned at or within proximity to the resource delivery destinations. Through proactive seeding of resources, which may reflect content or service functionalities, reduced latency may be observed at least with respect to requesting the resources from the content delivery network.

Abstract: An information handling system for composing composed information handling systems includes persistent storage and a system control processor. The system control processor, after being allocated to a composed information handling system of the composed information handling systems: monitors health of computing resources of the composed information handling system; makes a determination, based on the monitoring of the health of the computing resources, that at least one of the computing resources is in a compromised state; and, based on the determination, marks the at least one of the computing resources for recomposition.
