  • Patent number: 11157664
    Abstract: A method of modeling a prospective database migration between database systems may include collecting performance data associated with a plurality databases in a first database system. The method may also include receiving a selection of a set of databases in the plurality of databases to migrate to a second database system. The method may additionally include computing, using at least some of the performance data, combined performance data that estimates how the set of databases will perform on the second database system. The method may further include providing one or more indications as to whether the set of databases should be migrated to the second database system. In some embodiments, the one or more indications may be based on the combined performance data.

  • Patent number: 10275506
    Abstract: This disclosure describes devices, architectures, and techniques to coordinate data related to separate services to help create a more robust user experience for a user accessing either or both of the separate services. For instance, if the user currently accesses two separate services that relate to a common subject matter, techniques of this disclosure will provide data from one of the services when the user accesses the other. In one example, an activity feed that includes activities relating to both a first service and a second service may be generated and displayed to a user accessing the first service.

  • Patent number: 9967154
    Abstract: Administrative tasks and services associated with computer systems are simplified and streamlined with a platform architecture that supports remote administration, development, and deployment of services. A system is configured with a support cloud platform to allow automation of tasks and services and the reuse of components. The platform generates, stores, deploys, executes, and monitors services through their complete life cycle. Services may be designed, made available for deployment, deployed to a customer, executed and monitored using the platform.

  • Publication number: 20130311792
    Abstract: The subject matter of this application is embodied in an apparatus that includes a data processor, and at least one hardware monitor to measure circuit delays associated with the data processor and a power supply to provide power to the data processor. The apparatus also includes a voltage regulator to regulate a voltage level provided by the power supply, and a look-up table having target voltage values and target circuit delay values each corresponding to one or more conditions. The apparatus further includes a controller to control the voltage regulator. The controller at various time points controls the voltage regulator based on target voltage values obtained from the look-up table. In between the time points, the controller controls the voltage regulator based on differences between target circuit delay values and measured circuit delay values.
