Abstract: An employee data replication system receives a request to replicate employee data hosted by a host system. At least one of: a live date corresponding to when the employee data is to be live on the enterprise system or a selection of one or more applications to be used on the enterprise system is identified. A cutoff date for the employee data is calculated based on one or more of the live date and the selection of one or more applications, the cutoff date indicating an oldest date for which the employee data is to be replicated to the enterprise system. Employee data is replicated from the host system to the enterprise system based on the cutoff date, and an indication is provided that the replication has completed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are various embodiments for an employee data replication system. An embodiment operates by receiving a request to replicate employee data hosted by a host system. At least one of: a live date corresponding to when the employee data is to be live on the enterprise system or a selection of one or more applications to be used on the enterprise system is identified. A cutoff date for the employee data is calculated based on one or more of the live date and the selection of one or more applications, the cutoff date indicating an oldest date for which the employee data is to be replicated to the enterprise system. Employee data is replicated from the host system to the enterprise system based on the cutoff date, and an indication is provided that the replication has completed.

In one implementation, a method comprises receiving data from a plurality of data sources; aggregating the data within a data structure configured for managing large-scale data; identifying a plurality of data portions within the data structure; asynchronously processing a selected data portion based on at least one sub-process to generate at least one processed data object; and transmitting the at least one processed data object to a downstream process.

Abstract: The content items presented to a user account as part of a media station can be recorded in a content history index, which can be requested and presented to the user account. The content history can enable a user to revisit the content items included in the content history and/or provide feedback regarding the content items. The version of the content item returned to the user can be based on the client device used to request the content item. For example, a user that was presented a content item on their mobile device, can later request to revisit the content item on their PC and receive a version of the content item best suited for presentation by the PC, rather than the version presented on the mobile device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for invitational content geofencing. A system first sends, to a server location data associated with the system, the location data being calculated at the system. The system then receives a listing of places of interest within a geofence including a geographical perimeter for identifying places of interest in the listing, the geofence being based on the location data associated with the system. Next, the system selects a place of interest from the listing based on a location of the system. The system then presents a content item associated with the place of interest.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for targeting segments of customers. A system maps users to targeting segments based on a respective purchase history of the users, and receives a segment identifier from a server, the segment identifier to be associated with a targeting segment from the targeting segments for anonymously identifying the targeting segment. Next, the system associates the segment identifier with the targeting segment and users mapped to the targeting segment, and sends, to the server, the segment identifier and unique user identifiers of the users mapped to the targeting segment associated with the segment identifier, the unique user identifiers masking respective identities of the users from the server and the segment identifier masking an identity of the targeting segment associated with the segment identifier. The system then instructs the server to deliver selected invitational content to at least one unique user identifier associated with the segment identifier.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable medium are provided for managing electronic content requests. For example, a user device may collect usage information associated with use of the user device. The user device may transmit data corresponding to a first category of usage information to a service provider. In some examples, a file that comprises a plurality of electronic content items can be received. The file may also contain logic for determining which of the content items to display. The logic may be executed to determine a particular item of the content items to display based at least in part on additional data corresponding to a second category of the usage information. In some examples, the user device may prepare the particular content item for display.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for maintaining user anonymity in content statistics. A system can first receive a media content request from a client device. The media content request can include a user account identifier and a content identifier. The content identifier can be different and separate from the user account identifier and a device identifier associated with the client device, and the content identifier can identify content presented at the client device. Next, the system can store the user account identifier and the content identifier in separate locations without attributing the content identifier to the user account identifier. In response to the media content request, the system can transmit a media content item to the client device based on the user account identifier. The system can also report the content presented at the client device with the content identifier and without the user account identifier.

Abstract: The current document is directed to methods and systems that extend cloud-management-facility management from a private data center to infrastructure provided by a remote cloud-computing facility. A remote cloud-management-facility agent is installed within the remote cloud-computing facility to mediate exchange of control and information messages between the cloud-management facility within the private data center and virtual machines executing within the remote cloud-computing facility. The cloud-management-facility agent is connected to the cloud-management facility through a secure tunnel or connection.

Abstract: Methods and arrangements are provided for the generation and assembly of content pods for playback within an online streaming media service. A content pod is assembled to contain personal content that is relevant to an end user. In some embodiments, personal content can consist of traffic updates, voicemail messages, text messages, social media updates, and personal status updates. A content delivery system determines what personal content is available on the user device through connecting to available information sources. The delivery system then assembles the content pod from these elements in addition to invitational content from content providers. In some embodiments, a bumper message is included in the content pod to provide a context for the elements that are being assembled in combination with each other. Once the content pod is generated, it is sent to the user device to be played during content breaks within the online streaming playback.

Abstract: The content items presented to a user account as part of a media station can be recorded in a content history index, which can be requested and presented to the user account. The content history can enable a user to revisit the content items included in the content history and/or provide feedback regarding the content items. The version of the content item returned to the user can be based on the client device used to request the content item. For example, a user that was presented a content item on their mobile device, can later request to revisit the content item on their PC and receive a version of the content item best suited for presentation by the PC, rather than the version presented on the mobile device.
