Abstract: Illustrative embodiments include a method, system, and computer program product for early configuration of an application in a deployment of an enterprise application. A section is located in an enterprise application deployment file of the enterprise application. The section includes configuration information of the application. The configuration information of the application is loaded before completing loading of the enterprise application deployment file such that the application is configurable without waiting for the loading of the enterprise application deployment file to complete. Loading the enterprise application deployment file is continued without waiting for a configuring of the application using the configuration information of the application that is loaded.

Abstract: An approach for addressing (e.g., preventing) detected network intrusions in a virtualized/networked (e.g., cloud) computing environment is provided. In a typical embodiment, users may group components/systems of an environment/domain according to a range of security sensitivity levels/classifications. The users may further configure rules for responding to security threats for each security sensitivity level/classification. For example, if a “highly dangerous” security threat is detected in or near a network segment that contains highly sensitive systems, the user may configure rules that will automatically isolate those systems that fall under the high security classification. Such an approach allows for more granular optimization and/or management of system security/intrusion prevention that may be managed at a system level rather than at a domain level.

Abstract: Rescheduling unfinished meeting agenda topics includes detecting an unfinished meeting agenda topic at a conclusion of a meeting and rescheduling with a meeting management engine the unfinished meeting agenda topic to be addressed in a later meeting.
