Abstract: Illustrative embodiments represent a dynamic on-demand approach to configuring destination storage for bare metal restore (BMR) operations without operator intervention, including destination storage that is smaller than source storage devices. The illustrative operations rely on system state information collected concurrently with or shortly after source data is backed up, thereby capturing current actual storage metrics for the source data. The illustrative embodiments further rely on enhanced data agent components to collect and restore system state information as well as to restore backup data, thereby streamlining the configurations needed for the BMR operation to proceed. Additional business logic matches source mount points with suitable smaller destination storage resources and ensures that the BMR operation successfully completes with diverse and/or smaller storage destinations.

Abstract: An intelligent question and answer (Q&A) system and method for interactively guiding users through a procedure is disclosed. The intelligent Q&A system can dynamically generate process trees (or procedural trees) from the content or procedures presented in a raw document, such as a reference manual. The intelligent Q&A system can include a virtual agent that uses the dynamically generated process trees for interactive conversation with a user. Using the system, the virtual agent can interactively guide users through completing tasks such as updating software or connecting an IoT device to an existing system.

Abstract: Buying stage determination techniques in a digital medium environment are described to model and control user interaction with a service provider to purchase a good or service through identification of stages in a buying cycle associated with users. Usage data is obtained that at least describes interactions by one or more users with the service provider that occurred during previous sessions. The marketing interactions in the obtained usage data are classified and quantified for respective said users using one or more features. Generation of a model of the stages of the buying cycle is controlled using the quantified usage data. The model is configured to identify a stage in the buying cycle that is associated with a respective said user, which is usable to control further marketing interactions supported for that user.
