Abstract: Multi-dimensional surrogation systems and methods are provided that generate at least one up-to-date data surrogate using information of data and numerous data changes received from at least one data source, including a production system. Embodiments described further perform bulk-to-brick transformation of the up-to-date data surrogate. Brick-level data, or item data, is further indexed and stored in an application-aware manner. The stored item data is easily accessible by many data management applications for integrated item search and recovery functions, audit functions, monitoring and supervision functions, legal discovery functions, compliance functions, archival functions, backup functions, disaster recovery functions, and more. Bulk-to-brick transformation and access of the stored item data occur off of the production system, thus contributing no performance degradation to the production system.

Abstract: Multi-dimensional surrogation systems and methods are provided that generate at least one data surrogate using information of data and numerous data changes received from at least one data source. The multi-dimensional surrogation transforms data of each data surrogate from a format of the data source to at least one alternative format. Original metadata is extracted from each data surrogate. New metadata is generated by combining portions of the original metadata and components of each data surrogate. The multi-dimensional surrogation generates an extended data surrogate comprising the data surrogate and the new metadata.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for service availability that provides automated recovery of server service in a timely and application intelligent manner, maintaining application consistency and integrity, while preserving server identity. The systems and methods, referred to herein as a Service Preservation System (SPS), manage complete recovery of server data and preserve continuity of server service, reestablishing user access to server(s) after an event or disaster in which in which primary or other server(s) fail. The failures, disasters, and losses referred to herein can be at many levels and include, but are not limited to, accidental deletion of an item, loss of an entire mailbox, loss of an entire disk drive, loss of an entire server, and/or loss of an entire server site.

Abstract: A method for enhancing reliability while upgrading a software program implemented in a clustered computer system from a first version to a second version. The software program is implemented as software modules running on a plurality of computers coupled in a cluster configuration in a clustered computer system. The method includes ascertaining a certification level associated with each of the software modules. If a certification level of a given software module of the plurality of software modules has a first certification level, the method includes limiting a load level on the given software module to a first load level. If a certification level of a given software module of the plurality of software modules has a second certification level, the method includes allowing the load level on the second routing transaction requests to reach a second load level higher than the first load level.

Abstract: A method for maintaining a predefined acceptable fault tolerance level for a plurality of software modules implementing a software program running on a first plurality of computers coupled together in a cluster configuration in a first cluster in a clustered computer system. The first plurality of computers being coupled to a first intelligent director agent. The method includes tracking, using the first intelligent director agent, status of the software modules running on the first plurality of computers. The method also includes ascertaining a fault tolerance level associated with the software program, with the ascertaining being ascertained by examining the status of the software modules running on the first plurality of computers. If the fault tolerance level is below the predefined acceptable fault tolerance level, the method also includes searching for a first suitable computer among the first plurality of computers to load another module of the software program thereon.

Abstract: Code implants for compilers are disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, a computerized system includes a virtual machine, a module within the virtual machine and providing a predetermined functionality, and a compiler. The compiler is desirably a just-in-time compiler, and compiles a first code (such as byte code in the case of the Java programming language) into a second code, which is desirably machine code. The compiler calls the module during compilation to receive a code implant associated with the module for inclusion into the second code.
