Abstract: When a media client is receiving a media stream, the media client determines an upcoming time point at which the media client is to perform a content revision involving insertion (e.g., substitution or overlaying) of new content. The media client further determines an advanced time point when the media client should initiate a process of acquiring the new content, setting the advanced time point sufficiently in advance of the upcoming content-revision time point to enable the media client to obtain at least enough of the new content to be able to start the content revision on time. In an example implementation, the media client could determine the advanced time point by predicting how long the content-acquisition process will take, based on consideration of past instances of content acquisition, possibly correlated with operational factors such as content source, processor load, memory load, network speed, and time of day.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an approach for generating one or more firewall rules to regulate communication between containerized services running within containers. The approach includes determining which services communicate with each other, independently of in which containers the services execute. The determining occurs over a period of time. If two services communicated with each other during the period of time, then the firewall allows the services to continue communicating, but only over the same ports as used during the period of time. If two services did not communicate during the period of time, then the firewall does not allow the services to communicate after the expiration of the period of time. In some embodiments, redetermining the communication flow over a new period of time may occur after the initial period of time so as to refresh the firewall rules.

Abstract: Some embodiments may be associated with a cloud computing environment. A cloud resource credential management system may be provisioned as part of a virtual machine deployment, access information associated with an application or a service configuration file and establish a cloud resource credential provisioning system external to an application to be executed in connection with the virtual machine. The cloud resource credential provisioning system may, for example, map a cloud resource policy and a cloud resource credential. The cloud resource credential provisioning system may then intercept a cloud resource call from the application to a cloud resource provider and validate that the cloud call request complies with the cloud resource policy. If the cloud resource call complies with the cloud resource policy, the cloud resource credential provisioning system may extend the cloud resource call with the cloud resource credential and forward the extended cloud resource call to the cloud resource provider.
