Abstract: A system and method improve the performance of non-volatile memory storage by offloading parity computations to facilitate high speed data transfers, including direct memory access (DMA) transfers, between a remote host and a non-volatile memory based storage system, such as a flash memory based data storage device (e.g., SSD). In conjunction with writing to non-volatile memory storage, a stripe map is used to target a selected data storage device for parity generation. All data of a stripe is transmitted to the selected data storage device to generate the parity and the generated parity is propagated from the selected data storage device to other data storage devices in the stripe. The data for the stripe may also be propagated from the selected data storage device to the other data storage devices in the stripe.

Abstract: When tenants migrate data from on-premises archiving solutions to a hosted service, tenants should maintain just enough data for compliance purposes and dispose of data that is no longer needed to reduce overall liability and compliance risk exposure. Embodiments are directed to providing selective import of data to a hosted service through a security and compliance system associated with the hosted service to reduce overall liability and compliance risk exposure. Data, usage pattern and security/compliance policies associated with a tenant of the hosted service may be analyzed. A model for importing tenant data may be created based on the analysis. A suggestion may be presented to the tenant based on the model, where the suggestion includes a filter for importing tenant data. In response to receiving a confirmation to implement the suggestion, the filter may be applied to the tenant data as it is imported to the hosted service.

Abstract: The invention is directed towards wearable devices and operating wearable devices in a visual mode when a display device of the wearable device is within a line-of-sight (LOS) of a user and operating the wearable device in an audible mode when the wearable device is outside the LOS of the user. The position of the display device, relative to the user's LOS, is automatically determined. The operational mode of the wearable device is automatically transitioned when a transition of position of the display device is detected. The wearable device may be a head-mounted display (HMD) device. A visual mode provides visual-based presentations of UIs, content, information, and data, via the display device. In contrast to a visual mode, an audible mode provides audio-based presentations of UIs, content, information, and data, via one or more audible speakers included in the wearable device.

Abstract: Software development kit (“SDK”) applications may be implemented with user data on an enterprise end-user or shared device subsequent to a single check-out process on the device. A user profile and a context ID for a user can be accessed based on user provided credentials. An agent application can set a value of an agent context ID to a server context ID corresponding to the context ID for the user profile. A status of a local context ID (“LCID”) of an SDK application can be determined in response to an application launch. Using the LCD, a context ID comparison can be performed on the device with a value of a context ID from one of the SDK application, the server, and the agent application based on the LCID status. The SDK application can be implemented with user specific user data obtained from one of the SDK application and the agent application based on a result of the context ID comparison.
